Dr. Daphine Stroops became part of The Joint Chiropractic’s team of local healthcare providers in 2019 and has been serving residents in the Houston area since 2020.
“The best thing about being in the chiropractic field is being able to make a positive impact on the patient’s life by taking away their pain,” she says. “I feel this way because I love being of service to others.
“The other thing that is gratifying is meeting new patients because that gives me a chance to educate them and change their lives by introducing them to the power of chiropractic care.”
A mother of two sons, two daughters, and a German shepherd/Labrador mix named Alfie, she enjoys traveling in her spare time: “I love visiting new places and trying local cuisines.”
Dr. Daphine, as her patients call her, grew up in Wilton, Ark. “I learned how to be a social butterfly there,” she says. “This helps me to never meet a stranger, which makes my patients comfortable in my clinic.”
She earned a bachelor’s degree in business management from Grambling State before getting her doctorate of chiropractic from Texas Chiropractic College in 2015.
“I knew chiropractic was my calling when I prayed to God to lead me to the table or people that I should meet before going to a career fair at Grambling State just before graduation,” Dr. Daphine says. “I ended up meeting a college recruiter from Texas Chiropractic College! I never heard of chiropractic before this moment. I knew it was meant to be because everything just fell into place for me to get into this program.”
If she needed any additional confirmation, it came early in her career. “I had just started my journey at The Joint and this patient walks in bent forward, limping, in moderate to severe pain,” she recalls. “I have to admit to being nervous on the inside, but I told myself, ‘You got this!’ So I examined him and proceeded to treat him. I had him stand up and he was still hurting. So then I had him lie supine on the table with his knees bent, and used the drop piece on his pelvis, performed distraction to his legs, and he stood up straight and walked out of my clinic without limping.”
In Case You Didn’t Know
Dr. Daphine always keeps water stocked in her refrigerator “because our bodies need hydration to survive.”
Her dream dinner party with any four people from history would include the developer of chiropractic BJ Palmer, Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., playwright William Shakespeare, and scientist Albert Einstein. “It would be fascinating to pick their brains,” she says.
