Teachout Chiropractic & Wellness - Our Staff

Dr. Eric Teachout, DC

I am a 1991 graduate of Spring Arbor College with a major in biology and a minor in Chemistry. I worked as a medical technologist and research chemist for 4 years before pursuing my childhood dream of becoming a chiropractic physician. After graduating Magna cum laude from Palmer College of chiropractic in 1998, I started practice in Battle Creek, MI., where our team strived to improve the health of our community through chiropractic care and nutritional weight loss.

I am enjoying serving the greater Fort Myers area, providing the same quality of care that built our reputation in Michigan. I believe that chiropractic can be both comfortable and effective, which drives me to always look at new evidence-based techniques {keep link that is currently there}. In 2011, we started offering nutritional coaching in our office to address the obesity epidemic we are facing as a nation. I personally lost 30 pounds in 6 weeks with our program and was able to get my blood pressure under control. In 2017, I became a CPEP (Certified Posture Exercise Professional) (CPEP link for info) to help my patients achieve better health through proper posture. I feel that "Optimal Health" can be achieved with chiropractic care, proper nutrition weight management, and proper posture. Our patients are very important to us, you are not just a number in our practice, you are extended family!

I am married to my best friend Amy, and we have two adult children, and two grandchildren. I enjoy spending time with my family especially when its related to the ocean and beaches; I also like to stay active bicycling, kayaking and hiking, as well as traveling. Some of my hobbies include photography and hunting for sharks’ teeth along the beaches.

Amy Teachout - Office Manager, Billing Manager, Weight Loss Coach

I am the Office Manager, Billing Manager, and Weight Loss Coach for Teachout Chiropractic & Wellness Center. I am also a Licensed Life and Health Insurance agent and worked as a Licensed Massage Therapist for over 18 years. I have taken some nutritional classes to help me better understand the different types of programs out there, and have spent more than 10 years coaching, while learning how to best meet the individual needs of dieters to help them be successful.

My husband is my best friend. Together we raised our two beautiful children, one of which gave us two beautiful grandchildren that I take every chance to see! I love to spend time with all of my family, and, like my husband, I enjoy biking, kayaking, and traveling. I also enjoy reading, going to the beach, and laying out by the pool.

Dr Aaron Howard, DC, ND, BPS

I graduated from Hesser College in Manchester, NH in 1998 with a degree as a Physical Therapy Assistant and earned my bachelor’s degree with a concentration in Human Biology shortly after. I graduated magna cum laude from New York Chiropractic College in 2004. When I discovered Naturopathic Medicine, I decided to pursue a second doctorate degree at the University of Bridgeport College of Naturopathic Medicine in 2009. My focus is women and children as well as NRT (Nutrition Response Testing).

I came to Teachout Chiropractic & Wellness from Southern New Hampshire where I owned a thriving Women and Children Wellness practice. I empower my patients to take an active role in their health, believing people should be as informed as possible, so that they can be directly involved in making educated choices to optimize their health and wellbeing. I believe my primary role as a doctor is to treat the “whole person” by blending best practice science, natural healing, and nutrition to provide each patient with a personalized plan to reach their health goals. As your Chiropractor, I always have time for you: to listen, to explain, and to offer alternative options.

Outside of caring for my patients I enjoy spending time with my daughter, Ellery. We love going for bike rides, hiking, art projects and playing with Barbies. I also love spending time with my girlfriend Michelle in the kitchen trying new recipes, going to museums, shooting, and riding my Harley in the Florida sunshine.
