Nicholas Bledsoe, DC
I originally grew up in Terre Haute, Indiana with my father, a chiropractor, and my mother, an educator. They instilled in me a value for hard-work ethic, the ability to listen, and an optimistic attitude. We relocated to Fort Myers, Florida where I finished school. After graduating from Cypress Lake High School, I accepted an academic scholarship to attend the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida. I graduated in 2015 and received a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Applied Physiology and Kinesiology.
Following graduation, I completed an extensive internship at a private practice physical therapy clinic in Richmond, Virginia. After the completion of my internship, I accepted a position and worked there for 4 years while my wife was in dental school at Virginia Commonwealth University.
I continued my education at Palmer College of Chiropractic in Port Orange, Florida. In 2021, I completed the Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) degree program graduating in the top percent of my class as a summa cum laude. While in school I was active in sports council, motion palpation, and the Florida Chiropractic Association.
I met my wife, Julia Giardina, during our time as undergraduates. She completed dental school as well as a Postgraduate Orthodontic and Dentofacial Orthopedic Program at Virginia Commonwealth University. She is also currently practicing in Harrisonburg, Virginia with her mentor at Kray & Giardina Orthodontics. When not immersed in talking about health care, we enjoy hiking, working out, going to sporting events, trying new food, and watching the latest release on Netflix.
