Thank you for taking your time to learn more about me as a physician and a person. As a chiropractic patient myself, I firmly believe that knowing and trusting your physician creates a more positive environment for care that ultimately leads to better health for the patient. The first step in forming that relationship comes with knowing your doctor's life, both educational and personal. 

I originally hail from the Lone Star State, having been born and raised in Austin. Spending time on the numerous rivers and lakes in Central Texas, I formed a strong appreciation for nature and the connection between a healthy, sporting lifestyle and improved function of the body. This connection plays a pivotal role in my chiropractic practice, as I encourage patients to seek better health through conscious choices in diet and activity that will enhance the body's performance and longevity.

Graduating from Davidson College in 1999 with High Honors degrees in Spanish and Pre-Medical Studies, I moved to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, to seek outdoor adventures on a grand scale. Between hiking, snowboarding, kayaking, and fly fishing, I divided my professional time between my business as an on-call medical translator for Hispanic patients in the valley, and my volunteering with the Teton County EMS team as a medic.

In 2002, I decided to further my career in healthcare by attending Western States Chiropractic College in Portland, Oregon. Having been successfully treated by a chiropractic physician after a severe wakeboarding injury while in college, I had been spared surgical and narcotic treatments in favor of natural, conservative healing methods. This experience was a turning point for me, as I realized that my goal in life was to one day be able to provide the same life-altering, life-saving treatments for my patients. For me, there is no higher calling than to allow a patient the opportunity to regain his or her mobility and return to the activities of a healthy lifestyle, pain-free and trained to prevent similar injuries in the future.

I graduated Magna Cum Laude and Valedictorian from Western States in 2006, receiving the prestigious Clinical Excellence Award for outstanding patient care in the school's clinic setting. I have performed internships in Portland, Oregon; Beverly Hills, California; Austin, Texas; and Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Preferring the relaxed and natural setting of Portland, I returned to the Rose City in 2007 to establish my private practice at Sylvan Chiropractic Clinic and Wellness Center.

Nadia Chopra, PT, DPT, OCS, COMT,  is a Physical Therapist and Certified Orthopedic Manipulation Therapist through the North American Institute of Manual Therapy.  She worked as a senior physical therapist at Westside Dance Physical Therapy and the New York City Ballet & School of American Ballet for 9 years.  She has had the pleasure of working as an independent PT for companies such as Twyla Tharp Dance, Bill T Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company, The Forsythe Company, LA Dance Project, Ballet Preljocaj, and the theatrical production Sleep No More.  Nadia is now proud to be the Lead Physical Therapist & Wellness Coordinator of OBT and owner of Mend Physical Therapy in NE Portland.

I was born in Baltimore, Maryland but consider myself to be from Reno, Nevada as my family moved there when I was 7. I moved to the Portland area in December of 2011 for chiropractic school and over time fell in love with the region.

I attended the University of Nevada, Reno for undergrad and worked towards a bachelor’s degree in biology with a minor in chemistry and dance. Upon acceptance into chiropractic school, I moved here to Portland and attended University of Western States Chiropractic College. It has always been my goal to become a sports medicine doctor and I am currently in the process of completing my Certified Chiropractic Sports Practitioner (CCSP) certification. I am also certified in Graston Technique which is a form of soft tissue massage/manipulation and I am certified by Rocktape for their method of kinesiotaping. I practice the Diversified technique of adjusting, which is the more hands on method, the one that you typically associate with a chiropractor. However, I can also perform the gentler instrument assisted adjustments as well, typically referred to as Activator.

In my free time, I can usually be found on a hiking trail somewhere in the gorge or on the mountain (in the winter I just strap on some snowshoes and keep going), a dog park with my pitbull Butch, the ballet studio, various sporting events for all of the areas wonderful teams, a local brewery or enjoying all the food Portland has to offer.   

I look forward to working with you!

Simon J. Agger, DC, graduated from Western States Chiropractic College in 1997. In 1998 he took over a 35 year old practice and has been there ever since. He has a passion for his work and truly believes that we can get the most out of our bodies if we can just give them the right support: Whole food nutrition, exercise, positive thinking, soft tissue and structural support through regular Chiropractic Care. In his years of practice, he has come to see that it is much easier to "stay well" than to "get well".

Dr. Agger was born and raised in the scenic village of Queniborough, outside of Leicester, in the East-Midlands of England. As he puts it,"Queniborough is located halfway between Robinhood and Shakespeare." He has been interested in health and nutrition since he was a teenager. He received his undergraduate degree in Economics from the University of Wolverhampton, in England. His interest in travel first brought him across the Atlantic in 1990, where he met his wife, 
Jo Ellen, in the Grand Canyon.

He studied massage and reflexology while in the USA, and practiced both prior to studying Chiropractic Medicine. During this time, he received his first spinal adjustment. It felt so good that he thought someone had just oiled his joints, and he knew then that he wanted to learn how to do that!

When he returned to England in 1991, he was part of one of the first Alternative Health clinics in Leicester, which included Osteopathic and Chiropractic Physicians, Massage Therapists, and Acupuncturists. He has lived in the United States since he returned in 1992, married the woman in the Canyon and attended Chiropractic College.

Dr. Agger treats the full spine and extremities using Diversified and Activator techniques. Nutritional Response Testing, whole food nutrition and lifestyle counseling are also very big part of the practice. The practice includes several generations of families, bus drivers, police and firemen, teachers, business professionals, doctors, attorneys, gardeners, and amateur and professional artists and athletes. In addition to his work at the clinic, he is an Attending Physician with the dancers at the Oregon Ballet Theatre on a weekly basis, as part of a plan to improve their structural health, strength, flexibility, and reduce injury.

He and his wife, Jo Ellen, who manages the clinic, have two teen-aged children. In his personal life, Dr. Agger is very involved in soccer, as a player, as a coach for his children's teams, as a board member on the local recreational club in his community, and as a lifelong fan of Manchester City Football Club. He and his family also support the Portland Timbers. Dr. Agger welcomes you to our clinic and looks forward to making a positive contribution to your health and well-being.

Massage has always been a part of my life, whether it was a part of my wellness routine or a part of discussion. I knew from a very young age that I wanted to be of help to people. To create a safe space where people can heal, recuperate, rest, let go, be present. The mind body connection has profoundly fascinated me. Why when we are stressed, our shoulders come to our ears or how is trauma stored in parts of our body. Mentally you may have released it, though your body is still in fight or flight mode.

I’ve been in practice since September of 2018, graduating from Altierus Career College in July of 2018. I specialize in Neuromuscular Therapy, Trigger Point, Cupping Therapy, and Gua Sha. My way of massage and bodywork is therapeutic, to help seek pain management and stress relief.

Dr. Leddy competed his BS in Physical Therapy in the Netherlands in 1988, his DPT at Rocky Mountain University in 2017, and his APTA certification as a Pediatric Clinical Specialist in 2018. In 2019, he completed a 2-year invited apprenticeship to become Mary Massery’s third certified faculty member!

Dr. Leddy’s interest in breathing and postural control extends beyond pediatrics and includes complex neurological patients, adult orthopedic patients, and elite level ballerinas. He is a life-long learner and teacher, focusing on creating long-term benefits for his clients, such as with his “Now What?” peer project pairing young adults with cerebral palsy (CP) with adult mentors with CP.

Vincent’s proudest “Mary Massery moment” was using Dr. Massery’s concepts to improve the breathing patterns of an infant with developmental delays caused by gastric reflux and multi-system consequences. He would not have recognized this link without the mentorship he received in his faculty training. He can’t wait to show other therapists how to apply these concepts to their patients.
