Meet Dr. Brett Berner, a dedicated professional with a lifelong commitment to positively impacting people’s lives. Driven by a passion for helping others grow, he embarked on a journey that led him to become a Foundational Chiropractor, specializing in Foundational Correction using Upper Cervical Chiropractic.
Dr. Berner’s journey began during his high school years at Palm Harbor University High School, where he enrolled in a medical program, setting the stage for his future in healthcare. It was during his pursuit of a Bachelor’s Degree at Florida State University that he was introduced to chiropractic care. Shadowing local chiropractors, he discovered the transformative effects of Foundational Correction and its potential to bring about significant positive changes in individuals’ lives.
The turning point came when, during a winter break from college, Dr. Berner observed his father struggling to walk and had to use a cane. His dad had overwhelming pain in his low back, exacerbated by his military service. Witnessing his father’s suffering, Dr. Berner immediately referred him to the Foundational Chiropractor he had previously shadowed. The diagnosis revealed a Foundational Shift, a primary cause of his father’s low back pain. Following the correction, his father experienced a life-changing transformation—walking out without his cane, never to use it again. This profound experience solidified Dr. Berner’s commitment to Foundational Correction as his life’s purpose.
With a Doctorate from the esteemed Palmer College of Chiropractic, Dr. Berner is on a mission to bring positive change to the community. His clinical experience spans across patients of all ages, from newborns to the elderly. A strong advocate for ketosis and intermittent fasting, he has shared his expertise on these topics with the public.
Initially practicing as a traditional chiropractor, Dr. Berner transitioned to Foundational Correction after witnessing the life-changing results from his father, abandoning the traditional cracking and popping methods. This unique approach brings him immense joy as he helps individuals who have exhausted other avenues to regain their health. With thousands of hours of training, Dr. Berner has developed confidence in managing chronic conditions and enhancing overall quality of life through Foundational Correction.
Dr. Brett Berner is thrilled to connect with the community and is eager to make a lasting impact on the health and lives of friends and family through the transformative power of Foundational Chiropractic care.
Dr. Andrea is a Michigan native and attended chiropractic school at Life University in Atlanta, Georgia. While in Michigan, she played competitive ice hockey. Chiropractic has kept her from injuries and surgeries to further her ability to stay on the ice. During chiropractic school and practice, she developed a passion for helping pregnant moms and children take care of their bodies and nervous systems. She is proficient in Upper Cervical, Webster, and Diversified techniques. When she is not focused on chiropractic care, you can be found soaking up the sun at the beach, taking long walks around the city, or staying active through workouts like Pilates, weightlifting, and running.
I’m a Florida native. Working in healthcare is fulfilling because it gives me the opportunity to make a real difference in people’s lives. Outside work, I enjoy unwinding at the beach, getting lost in a good book, and bringing creativity to life through crocheting. When I want to relax, I love watching movies, whether classic favorites or something new.
Hi, my name is Lana. I moved to Florida in August 2024 with a passion for healthcare and a deep commitment to helping others. Currently an aspiring nurse, I have big plans to advance in the field and eventually become a midwife, providing specialized care for women and families. Outside of work, I enjoy fishing and spending time at the beach, often soaking up the sun and taking in the natural beauty of the coastline.
I am a New York native who moved to Florida for a fresh start. I earned my bachelor’s degree in anthropology and biology at SUNY Buffalo State University. I found myself becoming a chiropractic assistant at Foundation Chiropractic because of my passion for healthcare and helping others.
I enjoy drawing, reading, listening to music, and watching movies in my free time.
My name is Audry, and I earned my Physical Therapy degree in Venezuela. Along with being a dedicated mom and wife, I’m passionate about working where I can witness and be part of people’s healing journeys. Outside of work, I immerse myself in books, bring creativity to life with watercolor painting, and enjoy bike rides with my kids. I’m also working on my first novel. My favorite pastimes are collecting memories and watching the sun set over the ocean.
I starting seeing Dr. Berner back in May for my neck pain and dizziness. Since I have been getting my adjustments, I feel a difference. The dizziness i was getting has sudsided and my neck pain is much better. I am relieved that I am feeling better and able to get through my work day. Dr. Berner is professional and kind. Everyone in the office is very friendly. The best part is the office greeter Swanson. He really makes you feel welcomed.
Dr. B and his team are amazing. Always pleasant and welcoming. The care that I’ve received from the team has helped my overall physical health but the care exhibited by the staff also enhances my mental health after all the Florida traffic to get there. In the past year or so, I've seen a significant increase in my range of motion and a massive reduction in overall pain. I cannot recommend enough - and if you're lucky enough to make it around Halloween then make sure to come dressed up!
About a year ago my life changed forever. After being involved in a wreck, I suffered from some serious neck and back issues and injuries that made normal living difficult. Though I am not close to 100 percent health. Dr. Berner and his team have dramatically increased my quality of life. His Knowledge and science backed treatments, along with my improved pain level, really highlight how important Foundation Chiropractic is for this community. I will be forever grateful to Dr. Berner and his staff. I highly recommend anyone with neck or back pain to go for a consultation! You won’t regret it!
Dr Berner took over for Dr Melissa Licari when she retired, so he had big shoes to fill... and he has. He & his staff are very nice, understanding & accommodating. He always tailors my adjustments to make sure I feel relief before I leave & his care has almost 100% relieved me of my carpal tunnel pain. He stays in tune with the latest technology to give the best care he can and also has great coffee lol. Its not a quick drive for me but totally worth it since Im like Mrs Humpty Dumpty. Dr B is always putting me back together again & does so very well... idk what I'd do w/o him
Very personable and quick to take action. I brought my 3month old in for an adjustment. She favors leaning to one side. We had our second adjustment and we find that she's comfortably trying to stay straight instead of lean. I believe it is also helping her with digestion. She seems to be happier and not as grumpy. Excited to continue the processes as she gets older. Hoping this will help with her hemi vertebrae. The environment is very home like. The emotional support pups make it ease to get comfortable in! I enjoyed the experience with my daughter so much that I have taken on treatment for myself the past week and the tingling and numbness has already begun to subside. Dr Berner is professional and personable. He educates while influencing a healthier lifestyle. He checks on his patients even outside of office hours. I am grateful for the opportunity to manage my well being with the foundation practice and I'm looking forward to the process. 🤗
I personally recommend Dr Berner Foundation Chiropractic Upper Cervical Adjustment . It has helped me tremendously to get my life back in track. Now days I can play pickleball 6 days a week 5 hrs a day with no back pain. His staff is wonderful and very pleasant. You’re always welcome when coming in to the office and there are abundant of smiles from the staff. If you haven’t tried it yet I will recommend it…..your body will be thanking your decision.
