Meet The Doctors
Dr. Colin Smith became part of The Joint Chiropractic’s team of local healthcare providers in 2022 when he began serving residents in the Clarkston area, where he continues doing the work he finds so rewarding.
“The thing I like most about being in the chiropractic field is being able to help those in the community that are being overlooked by others,” he says. “It’s gratifying to make a positive difference in all those we meet.”
Dr. Colin, or Doc, as he is known to patients, worked previously in Jackson, Taylor, and Canton. He was raised in Northern Kentucky, where the community upbringing molded his belief “of helping anyone and everyone I can.”
He and his wife, Heaven, have three dogs with plans to expand their family in the future. In his spare time, Dr. Colin stays active with Brazilian jiu-jitsu, lifting weights, and drawing.
He earned his doctorate from Life University in Marietta, Ga., where he also received a bachelor’s degree in exercise science.
“I was playing football and one of my coaches was a chiropractor,” Dr. Colin says. “I sprained my ankle and he took care of it. From there, chiropractic has had a place in my athletic life.”
In Case You Didn’t Know
If he could sit down with any four people from history, Dr. Colin would sit down with jiu-jitsu artists Gordon Ryan, Lachlan Giles, Marcelo Garcia, and Helio Gracie. One of the greatest experiences of his life was playing competitive rugby for 15 years, including six at a Division 1 collegiate level, and winning two national championships at Life.
Among his favorite books is Can’t Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds by David Goggins. “It taught me that sometimes we’ve got to keep pushing through injury to realize we were hurt, not dead,” he says.
Dr. Jasbir Kocher was born and raised in Burr Ridge, IL. Dr. Kocher earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree and a Certification in Acupuncture from the National University of Health Sciences in Lombard, IL in 2012.
Dr. Kocher has a genuine excitement and passion for helping others. At the age of 17, he began work as a Pharmacy Technician in his local community.
Following a car accident in 2002, Dr. Kocher began suffering from headaches, neck pain, back pain, muscle tension, and balance issues. It was then when he discovered chiropractic care. After his life-changing experience as a patient, he learned that there was an alternative approach to helping people. At this moment, Dr. Kocher decided to change his field of study from pharmacy to chiropractic.
Dr. Kocher has had the opportunity of serving numerous patients with almost ten years of experience, who have never seen a chiropractor before. He strongly believes in a comfortable, compassionate, and results-driven experience for every patient he encounters. Dr. Kocher has also helped infants less than one-year-old to adults well into their 90's.
He has experience in helping patients with neck pain, headaches, migraines, poor posture, low back pain, scoliosis, sinus issues, spinal fusions, disc injuries, sciatica, and extremity pain, to name a few. Dr. Kocher also attended many hours of post-graduate education in Activator Technique, Acupuncture, Clinical Nutrition, Graston Technique, McKenzie Protocol, Physical Rehabilitation, and Spinal Decompression.
Of all his accomplishments, Dr. Kocher is most proud of being a father. When he is not working at The Joint Chiropractic, he enjoys quality time with his family, participating in physical fitness activities, watching sports, and growing in Faith.
Dr. Janet Marz has become a part of The Joint Chiropractic team here in Clarkston, MI, starting in December of 2024. After closing a private practice, which was a hard decision to make. She greatly enjoys working with the Joint to bring more relief and pain free days to the chiropractic community.
Dr. Janet started her Chiropractic career in high school working for a Chiropractor in Plymouth, MI as a Chiropractic Assistant. Headaches and TMJ pain is what brought her to start getting adjusted. With her headaches nearly gone, she saw the amazing benefits and results that Chiropractic had on people. That's when she decided she wanted to be a part of it.
Dr. Janet attended Life University in Georgia, where she got her Doctorate in Chiropractic. She moved back to Michigan after graduation and has practiced in both Plymouth & Canton. She eventually bought one of the private practices she worked at.
She is completely devoted to her patients and their health. She is a great listener who takes the time to personalize care for her patients. With a big heart she does what she can to improve their health. She works with all ages, having seen patients one day old (adjusting both of her kids the day they were born!), up to age 85 years old! Dr. Janet definitely has a soft spot (and the patience) for the little ones!
She currently resides in Livonia with her 2 children, fiance Tim, and dog named Hazel. She has been her daughter's girl scout leader for 3 years now. Enjoys watching her son play soccer and baseball, as well as her daughter’s cheer competitions. Dr. Janet loves to visit family in her spare time. She also enjoys traveling, organizing, projects around the house, reading, movies and nothing tops quality time with her children!!!
Dr. Richard Flusty joined The Joint Chiropractic’s team of local healthcare providers in 2023 when he began serving residents in the Detroit area, where he relishes the opportunity to do the work he finds so rewarding.
“One of the best things about working in the chiropractic field is that I help patients deal with health needs naturally, without drugs or surgery,” he says. “I enjoy meeting a diverse group of patients.”
Dr. Rick, as his patients call him, spent nearly his entire life in Michigan. He previously worked in Warren, Farmington Hills, Livonia, Taylor, Grand Blanc, and Bad Axe.
His wife’s name is Wendy and she is a graduate of Boston University. “She is a wonderful mother to our two adult children and grandmother to our grandchildren.”
Dr. Rick has a mocha schnoodle – a schnauzer and poodle mix. He enjoys being a homeowner and working around the house and yard. He also likes to watch college basketball and listen to music, and he has a passion for watches.
After earning an Associate of Applied Science degree in health optics, Dr. Rick graduated from Ferris State University with a Bachelor of Science in marketing. He earned a Doctorate at Life Chiropractic College, now Life University, in Marietta, Ga.
“A neighbor of mine became a chiropractor and told me about how chiropractic helps patients without using drugs or surgery,” he says. “I've seen people, including family members, suffer from various ailments that could have been helped with chiropractic. I felt that this was a career that would be perfect for me.”
Having worked in the field throughout Michigan, Dr. Rick sees how universal the benefits are. “I found that no matter what occupation a person has and which physical ailments they’re suffering from, chiropractic is a solution to be explored,” he says. “I admire The Joint's formula that makes chiropractic affordable and accessible to everyone.”
In Case You Didn’t Know
Dr. Rick always keeps a variety of fruit and cheese on hand. “Especially berries, bananas, and pears.”
If he could gather the ideal dinner guests, Dr. Rick has a famous four in mind. “I can't imagine a better dinner party than reuniting the Beatles – Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, and the late John Lennon and George Harrison.”
Some of Dr. Rick’s greatest experiences occurred while traveling. “The coolest was viewing – from afar – the Etna volcano in Italy, and second was taking a helicopter ride over the Alaskan ice glaciers.”
Dr. Rick’s favorite reading material includes Watches: A Guide by Hodinkee. “As a true watch enthusiast, it’s a book I love to read over and over.”
If he wrote his autobiography, he would entitle it The Life and Times of Trusty Flusty. “Trusty Flusty is a nickname I have had my entire life and I often refer to it when people ask me to repeat my unusual last name.”
When he considers a helpful piece of advice he’s received, Dr. Rick remembers his grandfather. “Whenever things tended to get too serious, my Grandpa Flusty always reminded me to keep things simple and make sure you have some fun.”
His advice for others is similar: “Life is too short, so find the good in every situation.”
