Dr. Ward met his wife, Alissa, at Elon, where she competed in cross country and track, while he participated in several intramural and club sports. After sustaining an injury during a flag football game, Dr. Ward visited a local chiropractor who quickly identified and resolved the issue. This experience inspired him to pursue his own career in chiropractic care, leading him to earn his chiropractic doctorate from Life University in Georgia.

Over the course of his career, Dr. Ward has worked with patients of all ages—from newborns to individuals in their 90s—as well as professional athletes. He is passionate about helping people feel and function their best, regardless of their age or activity level.

Dr. Ward and Alissa have three daughters: Katherine, Peyton, and Blake. Alissa spent most of her childhood in Charlotte and is a graduate of Providence High School. Together, they enjoy spending time outdoors, exploring local parks and playgrounds with their children.

Dr. Robert Mazal brings over 20 years of experience in delivering high-quality chiropractic care. Before joining Carolinas Chiropractic and Spinal Rehab, he dedicated many years to serving patients across the Charlotte area, building a strong reputation for compassionate and effective treatment. Dr. Mazal earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from the University of Bridgeport College of Chiropractic, following a Bachelor of Science in Sports Medicine from Norwich University in Vermont—where he also served as a member of the elite Mountain Cold Weather Rescue Team.

Originally from Trumbull, Connecticut, Dr. Mazal is fluent in Spanish and is dedicated to serving his community through expert diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of injuries. He lives in Weddington with his wife, Jill, and their two children, Ava and Ryan. Outside the clinic, he enjoys hiking, beach trips, and spending quality time outdoors with his family.

Dr. Patrick Slovonic is a graduate of Texas Chiropractic College. Prior to chiropractic school, he earned his Bachelor of Science in Athletic Training from Slippery Rock University in Pennsylvania and worked for UPMC in Pittsburgh for three years as a Certified Athletic Trainer, providing care for high school athletes. During this time, he worked closely with student-athletes suffering from disc herniations and spine-related conditions that were not fully responding to traditional medical approaches. Seeing how chiropractic care helped these athletes reduce pain, restore function, and return to activity inspired him to pursue chiropractic and focus on helping patients improve and stabilize their health through hands-on care and meaningful lifestyle changes.

Growing up, Dr. Slovonic participated in multiple sports including wrestling, swimming, tennis, golf, and ultimate frisbee, which fueled his long-standing interest in sports medicine and recovery. During his undergraduate education, he spent a semester studying abroad in Limerick, Ireland, strengthening his appreciation for travel and new perspectives. Dr. Slovonic lives in Lancaster with his wife, Amber, and their daughter, Blakely. Outside of the office, he values family time, enjoys traveling, and spends his spare time golfing.
