Dr. Don Capoferri has been practicing in the Atlanta, Ga., area since 1982. After completing his undergraduate education at Rutgers University, he earned his DC degree at Pennsylvania College of Chiropractic, graduating in December of 1981. After a two-year course of study, internship and research, he was the first chiropractor in the nation to receive a fellowship in spinal biomechanics and trauma from Cleveland University, Chiropractic and Health Sciences (where he is currently an adjunct professor of clinical sciences). Dr. Capoferri has extensive postgraduate training and credentials in MRI spine interpretation, spinal biomechanical engineering, spinal trauma pathology and electrodiagnostics.
