Dr. Sweeney grew up in a small town in Arizona and attended Arizona State University graduating with a degree in Psychology, and a focus on pre-med education. Sometime during his schooling at ASU, he started experiencing neck pain from old sports injuries. After treatment with medication failed, Dr. Sweeney tried a chiropractor for the first time. This experience changed the direction and focus of his education. He furthered his education here in Portland at University of Western States (UWS) graduating Cum Laude with degrees in Human Biology and a Doctor of Chiropractic. He fell in love with Oregon and the pacific northwest during his time at UWS and has been practicing chiropractic here since 2012.

Doctor Sweeney has been specializing in both new injuries as well as long term chronic conditions. He is a Whiplash & Brain Injury Traumatology graduate of the Spine Research Institute of San Diego (srisd.com) trained by Dr. Arthur Croft, the foremost expert in the field regarding auto and whiplash injuries. Dr. Sweeney has been specializing with injury patients since 2012.

In his free time, Dr. Sweeney enjoys spending time with his wife and daughter, enjoying all that the Pacific Northwest has to offer. He is active with the Arizona State Alumni Association, and is an avid golfer and skier, as well as a level 40 Pokémon Go master!
