Meet dr. Charles borgert
Dr. Borgert grew up in Mid-Michigan and moved to Colorado after undergrad to enjoy skiing and camping mountain life. He completed his undergraduate education at Michigan State University and his doctorate at Palmer College of Chiropractic in Port Orange. He opened a practice in Golden, CO in 2019, but later sold it to be able to move closer to family in North Carolina.
"After tearing a calf muscle playing sports, I wanted answers as to how it happened and to make sure that it never happens again! Looking for answers and being disappointed in the lack of help from the specialist, my brother recommended that I check out a chiropractor near me that he knew. I went in and learned about how the body is self healing and functions best with no interference, and that if I take care of the 'essentials' to live healthy, I would heal and have a better chance of staying healthy! My chiropractor saw in me that I couldn’t keep that knowledge just for myself, but I must help share that message and help others heal as well. I am blessed to now serve by helping each person unlock their true health potential." - Dr. Borgert
Outside the Practice
Outside of work, he enjoys sand volleyball, pickleball, golf, tennis, sports, skiing , fishing, hunting, and camping. Dr. Borgert also enjoys spending time at the beach and in downtown New Bern with his dog, Sparty.
