Dr. Hooper grew up in St. Clairsville, Ohio where he was active in nearly all sports. He attended Bowling Green State University in Ohio as a Pre-Med major with a goal of making the college golf team and the Chiropractic career as “Plan B”. The golf career didn't exactly work out, but “Plan B” and the Chiropractic career did! Over the years of practice the challenge of helping patients, many of whom consider him their "last resort" to surgery or a life of pain, motivated him on a daily basis. "Helping people and treating them as I would want to be treated is something I practice and our clinic practices every single day." Within his profession, he has completed hundreds of hours of post-graduate education in the treatment of Low Back and Neck conditions, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Headaches, Accident injury/Whiplash, Work Ergonomics, Diagnostic Ultrasound, Concussion, NCV testing and has testified as an expert witness over 200 times in the state of North Carolina. He is dedicated to the current research and evidence-based practices of acute and chronic concussion assessment, diagnosis, management and treatment and has been certified by the Complete Concussion Management Institute (CCMI) and the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS)/ Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Concussion In Sports as well as the Complete Concussion Management’s Sideline Course for Coaches, Trainers and Teachers.

Over the years of living and practicing in Wilson, Dr. Hooper has been very active in the community and in his own profession. He is a Past Rotarian of the Year, past President of the Eastern District of the North Carolina Chiropractic Association, Dreamweaver Mission trips to Kenya and currently is the president of Wilson Youth United- The SPOT.

Dr. Mark Thurston has been providing chiropractic care to patients in Wilson for over 20 years. He has changed countless lives through chiropractic treatment. He is originally from Flint, Michigan where he participated in almost all types of sports and activities while growing up. Actually, playing high school tennis was the catalyst that introduced him to chiropractic care. He injured his low back serving and a friend referred him to her father who was a chiropractor. He responded well to care and immediately thought of being a chiropractic physician.

Dr. Thurston worked hard in under-graduate at the University of Michigan and then at the National College of Chiropractic in Lombard, IL. After finishing his chiropractic education and receiving his degree, he moved to Wilson in 1986 and started providing quality chiropractic care to Wilson. Dr. Thurston has an active family life with his wife Mary, three boy's Charlie, Mitchell and Quinn, daughter Alex and son-in-law Riley. His hobbies include snow skiing and golf. He has established himself in the community as a very active member of the Rotary.
