Meet Dr. Ryan Coogan, your friendly neighborhood spine-whisperer who’s all about helping you live your best, healthiest life with a big smile! He’s a firm believer that health is a daily adventure, and he’s here to guide you through it with a mix of expertise, enthusiasm, and a sprinkle of fun. Dr. Ryan loves chatting with his patients, breaking down the nitty-gritty of spinal health in a way that’s easy to understand and empowering—because who says wellness can’t be a blast?

Back in 1996, Dr. Ryan earned his Bachelor of Science in Biology from Washington State University (Go Cougs!). Fueled by his passion for helping people move better and feel great, he jetted off to Life University in Atlanta, Georgia, and Life Chiropractic College West in San Francisco, California, earning his Doctor of Chiropractic degree in 2001. After sharpening his skills as an associate doctor for three years, he decided to be his own boss and opened a practice in Shoreline. In 2009, he brought his chiropractic magic to Kirkland, founding what’s now Eastside Spine & Injury—your go-to spot for bouncing back from auto accidents, tackling chronic pain, and keeping your spine in tip-top shape.

When he’s not adjusting spines or managing the clinic, Dr. Ryan’s living it up in Woodinville with his awesome wife and two kiddos. You might catch him swinging a golf club, sweating it out at the gym, exploring new corners of the world on family adventures, or just kicking back with friends and family, probably with a good laugh or two. With Dr. Ryan, it’s all about health, heart, and a whole lot of fun!
