Donor Spotlight: Rodney Bampton, DC Advancing the Philosophy of Chiropractic Nearly 20 years after graduating from Logan, Rodney Bampton, DC (’02) is just as passionate about the art and science of chiropractic as when he was a student in Dr. Roy Hilgartner’s philosophy class. “I remember being excited to learn about how the body worked and how medicine, while great for emergencies, was not great for long-term health or wellness,” he said. “It became clear that manipulation could create a long-lasting sustainable result.” Today, Dr. Bampton carries that same knowledge and excitement at his practice, Synergy Chiropractic Center in Wentzville, Missouri, where he practices alongside his wife Melissa Knight, DC (‘02). He
also believes in supporting organizations, like Logan, to keep that philosophy alive and grounded. Dr. Bampton became a first-time donor to Logan University this year. He said Logan’s widespread curriculum provides both the basics for understanding chiropractic as well as options to go in the direction of one’s own choosing. “I think the way health care is changing right now is an opportunity for chiropractors to assert themselves in the long-term health of consumers,” he said. “Can my donation change that? Perhaps not, but if 1,000 graduates all decided to support Logan, then yes, we can make a difference.”
