Dr. Christopher Schlenger, DC — Founder & CEO

Dr. Schlenger founded Premier Chiropractic in 1994 and has spent over 30 years building one of Stockton’s most established chiropractic practices. His clinical focus is personal injury chiropractic care, auto accidents, whiplash, and the kind of detailed documentation that supports attorney-led cases. He is the official chiropractor of University of the Pacific Tigers Basketball and the former Stockton Heat hockey team. Dr. Schlenger believes in plain-language communication with patients and works closely with primary care, orthopedic, and legal teams across San Joaquin County.

Dr. Jesús Cazares, DC, CCSP — Associate Chiropractor

Dr. Cazares is a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician (CCSP) with deep training in sports medicine and rehabilitation. He sees patients across the full Premier scope — personal injury, sports injuries, and family chiropractic care — and is fully bilingual in English and Spanish. He brings a modern, evidence-informed approach that pairs hands-on care with active rehabilitation.
