Dr. Antonio J. Webb is a fellowship trained Spine Surgeon and specializes in all medical conditions related to the spine including degenerative, deformity, trauma, cervical/lumbar arthroplasty, and minimally invasive spine surgery. Dr. Webb is a long term resident of San Antonio, Texas for the past 19 years and welcomes patients to the clinic who struggle with spine pain and who are looking for a solution.Growing up in Shreveport, Louisiana, it wasn’t until he attended a Medical Careers Magnet Program in high school that he envisioned his life outside the streets of Louisiana as a doctor. To make this dream a reality, he joined the United States Air Force at age 17 and spent a total of 8 years as a medic and LVN in the military including a tour north of Baghdad, Iraq in 2005 to a forward operating base dubbed “Mortarville” for the frequency of mortar attacks it endured. His unit treated just over 800 patients while in country and survived over 100 enemy mortar attacks during their deployment, while also earning several medals of distinction in the process.In addition to his surgical training at UT San Antonio, Dr Webb was fortunate to learn and spend time operating under the guidance of Dr. Kaye Wilkins in Port Au Prince, Haiti on two separate occasions and in 2018 he was awarded an AO trauma fellowship that allowed him to spend a month doing trauma and spine surgery in Bangkok, Thailand.Dr. Webb continued his training to subspecialize in Spine Surgery with a combined Neurosurgery and Orthopedic Spine Surgery Fellowship at the prestigious Texas Back Institute in Plano, Texas. Texas Back Institute is a leader in artificial disc replacement and was the first practice in America to implant an artificial disc replacement. Dr. Webb co-authored articles on cervical and lumbar artificial disc replacement while refining his surgical skills over that year.During his fellowship at Texas Back Institute, he learned how to utilize a multi-specialty approach to treating the spine. He worked closely with therapists, interventional pain specialists, 16 Orthopedic spine surgeons and 3 Neurosurgeons. He took the best practices from all his mentors, in each specialty, to formulate his own unique approach to spine care believing that conservative treatment is the ultimate goal, using surgery only as a final and last resort.

Too many chiropractors struggle to build and maintain a thriving practice that allows them the freedom in their professional and personal life to enjoy the fruits of their passion. Most chiropractors throw good money after bad with ineffective marketing. Or even worse, their practice has no marketing at all.

The Modern Chiropractic Marketing Roadmap will help you develop a clear message congruent with your clearly defined audience. It will show you how to leverage modern distribution channels that position you as the expert in your community. You will be able to implement and sustain this because you will have a strategic plan, and you will automate, delegate, and optimize all aspects of your practice’s marketing.

“Chiropractors are in the people business. Our profession is incredibly relational by nature. We help people by putting our hands on them. We see our people repetitively, often over the course of years. That’s a high-touch business by anyone’s definition.Chiropractors should be known for their ethical marketing and people-centric business practices. The chiropractic profession should be mentioned amongst the most trusted professionals, not the least.Thankfully, there is a growing number of chiropractors who are committed to being ethical, people-centered chiropractors. We are the chiropractors who care because it's right to care. We are intentional about building strong relationships within our communities, and we refuse to compromise the wellbeing of our people.We are chiropractors who are committed to creating a new legacy of chiropractic excellence and trustworthiness.” - Jerry Kennedy and Rocket Chiro
