The Doctor Behind
Plummer Chiropractic.
Dr. Gary Plummer began his academic career as a college science teacher — earning multiple degrees before pursuing his true calling in healthcare. That teaching background shapes everything about how he practices: he takes the time to explain your condition, your diagnosis, and your treatment plan in plain language you actually understand.
He graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic — the founding institution of the chiropractic profession, established in 1897 and known as "The Fountainhead." Graduating from Palmer means training under the most rigorous academic and clinical standards in the field.
In addition to his DC degree, Dr. Plummer is State Certified in Physical Therapy and holds an advanced certification in Manipulation Under Anesthesia (MUA) — a specialty technique used for complex chronic cases and patients who have not responded to standard care. Very few chiropractors in Florida hold all three of these credentials simultaneously.
He has been serving Englewood, FL and surrounding Southwest Florida communities since the early 2000s — over 26 of his 32+ years in practice. He sees a limited number of patients each day to ensure every person receives his full, undivided attention. He answers his own phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — no answering service, no callback queue.
“It is my policy that if anybody is unhappy with their first visit for any reason, we will cheerfully give you a full refund. I pride myself on getting people in and out the door while giving them the highest quality care possible.”
