Dr. Doug Hren of
Lakewinds Chiropractic Center
A Calling to Natural Healing
For the past 28 years, Dr. Doug Hren has been honored to help people reconnect with their body’s inner healing power. What began as a pre-med track at Western Michigan University took an inspiring turn during a visit to Life University in Atlanta, Georgia, where he discovered chiropractic’s vitalistic philosophy and natural approach to health and healing.
“I love empowering people to take control of their health and help them understand that our health is our greatest asset and without it, we cannot enjoy anything else in life.” This philosophy drives everything he does in practice, from the moment patients walk through the door to their ongoing care.

Education and Philosophy
Dr. Doug is a proud graduate of Life University, where he was deeply influenced by the late Dr. Sid Williams, the university’s founder and president. Dr. Williams’ teaching that “Just like gravity, Chiropractic works whether you believe in it or not!” shaped Dr. Doug’s understanding of chiropractic’s foundational principles.
Throughout his career, Dr. Doug has remained passionate about the vitalistic philosophy on which chiropractic was founded. He believes the body is designed to be healthy, with the nervous system serving as the master controlling system that regulates every cell and function. By correcting spinal misalignments called subluxations, he helps restore the vital communication between the brain and body.
A Positive Healing Environment
Dr. Doug understands that healing begins before he even adjusts a patient. His warm smile, kind words, and positive attitude create an atmosphere where natural healing can flourish. “Our body’s ability to heal is far greater than anyone has ever permitted them to believe!”
While many patients initially seek care for aches and pains, Dr. Doug loves witnessing their transformation as they discover improved overall health and well-being through regular chiropractic care.
Continuing Education
Dr. Doug is currently pursuing certification in perinatal and pediatric care, building on his years of experience caring for pregnant mothers, babies, and children. This additional training reflects his commitment to providing the highest quality care for patients at every stage of life.
Family and Personal Life
Dr. Doug’s world revolves around his beautiful blended family. His eldest children, Matthew and Maya, still live in Australia where he previously practiced. Here in West Michigan, he shares life with his wife Megan and their three daughters: Ellie, Willow, and Lyla. Their country home is also shared with their beloved dog Evie, cats Bella and Winnie, 11 named hens, and a bantam rooster named Prince Charming.
