It started as a simple idea to offer chiropractic care and allopathic medicine offerings shoulder to shoulder under one roof, but it became so much more. In 1997, the husband and wife team of Dr. David Berg, a chiropractor, and Dr. Janice Johnston, MD, a family practice physician, started Arrowhead Health Centers. Two decades later, Arrowhead is home to six multi-disciplinary centers; however, with the introduction of sister-company Redirect Health, the enterprise is also a system game changer that’s forcing Arizonans to reconsider how they spend their insurance dollars and access routine health care.

According to CBS 5 AZ news, “Valley heat is blasting its way into the record books as Phoenix bakes under an excessive heat warning…This is the 18th day of 110+ degree heat so far in 2015”.
