Ross M. Markowitz, D.C.
17+ Years of Experience • 125,000+ Patients Served
Dr. Ross M. Markowitz has been serving the Tenafly community since 2007, providing exceptional chiropractic care to over 125,000 patients. His practice is built on a personal connection to chiropractic healing—after a career-ending basketball injury ended his college athletic dreams, chiropractic care transformed his life. That pivotal experience inspired Dr. Markowitz to pursue advanced education and training to help others achieve the same level of recovery and wellness he experienced.
Dr. Markowitz earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Life University with honors (Magna Cum Laude, GPA 3.75) and holds a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Monmouth University. His expertise is recognized through multiple advanced certifications including Manipulation Under Anesthesia (MUA), CranioSacral Therapy, Whiplash Biomechanics & Traumatology, and comprehensive MRI interpretation training. Recognized as a New Jersey Top Doc since 2013, he is an active member of the American Chiropractic Association, New Jersey Association of Chiropractors, New York State Chiropractic Association, and the Tenafly Chamber of Commerce.
