Dr. Elisabeth Steczek, known to her patients as Dr. Beth, credits a chiropractor with changing her life when she was just 10 years old. That transformative experience inspired her to become a chiropractor herself.

“My mother noticed I had been limping. At the time, she was seeing a chiropractor who suggested bringing me in to be checked. He did an evaluation and saw something he didn’t like. My hip joint, right at the ball of the hip, had a fracture at the growth plate. I was in surgery within 4 days,” she says. “Without him thinking outside the box, I would have been disabled. That is the type of doctor I strive to be. To listen, to thoroughly evaluate, to think outside the box, to exhaust every possibility, and not let the patient give up on themselves.”

Dr. Beth graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic, Florida in 2008 with her Doctorate in Chiropractic. She utilizes a range of chiropractic techniques and specializes in herniated and bulging discs, and spinal stenosis.  Dr. Beth is dedicated to helping people of all ages without the use of drugs or surgery.

Dr. Beth grew up in Harrison Township and attended L’Anse Creuse High School. In 2000, she moved to Allentown, Pennsylvania to attend the private, all-women’s Cedar Crest College where she earned a bachelor’s degree in biology. She returned home to Michigan following her post-graduate studies.

When she’s not at work, Dr. Beth spends her free time with her husband, Mike, and children, Lila and Ethan. She also enjoys reading and baking.
