Dr. Gregory A. Hager

Chiropractor

License CH 60702397

Dr. Greg Hager ("Dr. Greg") was born and raised right here in Spokane, WA. After graduating from West Valley High School (Go Eags!), he pursued his passion for health and wellness at Eastern Washington University (again, Go Eags!), earning a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science. He then continued his academic journey at the University of Western States in Portland, Oregon, where he earned his Doctorate in Chiropractic.

Dr. Greg's path to chiropractic care began with personal experience. After a car accident, he sought treatment from Dr. Valente, who not only helped him recover but became a lasting mentor, inspiring him to pursue chiropractic as a career. With a diverse background in personal training, sports performance, and physical therapy, Dr. Greg offers a holistic and tailored approach, helping each patient achieve lasting relief and optimal health.

When he’s not at the office, Dr. Greg stays active by riding motorcycles, mountain biking, lifting weights, and playing or watching basketball. Most importantly, he loves spending quality time with his wife and kids, cheering them on in their sports and enjoying outdoor adventures together.

IN LOVING MEMORY OF DR. VALENTE

He went on to own Valente Chiropractic and created many incredible, long-lasting relationships. Mike had an impact on everyone that he met, his personality was unforgettable, and his patient care was unparalleled. Without a doubt, Dr. Mike Valente was a renowned figure in the chiropractic realm and a pillar in our local community. He is greatly missed.
