Meet Dr. Gil: Your Trusted Ouray Chiropractor for a Pain-Free Life

Proudly helping others live a pain free life from Telluride to Silverton, Ouray to Montrose.

Mountains, nature, and healing - that's what drives me!

As a seasoned chiropractor with over three decades of experience, Dr. Gil has dedicated his life to providing exceptional chiropractic care to individuals and families. After an incredible 33 year journey as the founder and operator of the esteemed Dr. Gil Center in Tennessee, he decided to embark on a new chapter of his life. He chose to retire and immerse himself in the breathtaking beauty of Ouray, Colorado - where the mountains whisper tales of adventure and serenity.

​

But, as fate would have it, his passion for making a difference in the lives of others couldn't be suppressed. The absence of patient interaction left a void in his heart. Determined to continue his mission of helping others live their most pain-free and active lives, Dr. Gil decided to start Active Life Chiropractic right here in the beautiful San Juan Mountains of Colorado.
