Over twenty years' experience has garnered Dr. Brandie Keates acclaim as an industry visionary and vanguard in the world of pregnancy chiropractic care. She has made it her life’s mission to globally disrupt the prenatal care status quo by posing a simple thesis: if sports medicine acknowledges athletes' unique requirements for physical care to allow their best performance during the game, then pregnant women must be able to expect the same during their pregnancies.
She strives to champion her patients and women worldwide through their pregnancy journeys with fierce advocacy. She’s not only out to influence change; she exists to put an end to the notion that women are supposed to accept pain as the norm and simply keep on going.
Dr. Brandie's performance has resulted in awards such as the High Honor of Clinical Excellence Award from Cleveland University-Kansas City, 2020 President’s Award for Service Chair for The Pediatric Group, Publishers Award for MainLine Parent, PCA Presidents 2020 Service Award, MainLine Parent Love Award, and most recently, The U.S. SBA’s Eastern PA District Office 2023 Woman-Owned Small Business of the Year.
Dr. Brandie credits her two children as the catalysts for her meaningful career in pregnancy chiropractic care. After developing a medical condition from the physical demands of treating professional athletes, she transitioned to prenatal care during her own pregnancy — and never looked back. Discovering how powerfully evidence-based sports medicine principles could transform pregnancy care ignited a passion that has been her driving force ever since.
