With many years of experience between Drs. Elizabeth Pagano and Rick Florez, this husband and wife team have dedicated themselves to helping people achieve their optimal health potential naturally.  They met at The Pennsylvania State University in 1998 and have been proud Nittany Lions ever since!  After Chiropractic studies, and operating a Chiropractic office in Spartanburg, SC (the Café of Life), they moved to Raleigh in November of 2007.  They love everything about this beautiful area and look forward to starting a family here in the near future.

Drs. Elizabeth and Rick display a holistic approach to life and living, and believe that everyone should have the opportunity to be happy and healthy.  They feel that true healing comes from within and cannot be achieved by an outside-in approach.

When not in the office, you will probably find Dr. Elizabeth out on the road running- somewhere.  She has set a personal goal for herself to run at least a half marathon in every state in the US!  She is consistently chipping away at her goal.  Her passion for running has led her to enjoy working with other runners in achieving optimal health. 

Dr. Rick played soccer his entire life, even as a member of the Penn State soccer team for several seasons, and still enjoys playing recreationally in Raleigh.  Years of wear and tear from athletics and weight training have had negligible effects on him due to Chiropractic care.  He enjoys working with athletes of all levels, helping them function at their highest levels for competition.

Drs. Elizabeth and Rick look forward to meeting and assisting you on your journey for health.
