Jason Bartlett, DC, is a faculty clinician at University Health Services and assistant professor at Northwestern Health Sciences University. Dr. Bartlett also practices at the Natural Care Center at Woodwinds, one of the University’s off-campus clinics. He received his doctor of chiropractic degree from Northwestern College of Chiropractic in 1988 and completed his bachelor's degree in human biology at Northwestern Health Sciences University.

Dr. Bartlett enjoys supervising the chiropractic student interns at University Health Services. "I'm very impressed with our interns' level of skill and professionalism," says Bartlett. "I am proud to know that they are Northwestern's future alumni."

"One of the most important things about chiropractic is connecting with the patients," says Barlett. "I believe in educating the patient about their health condition so that they are committed to their treatment plan and in improving their own health. And it's very important to give explanations in words that the patient can grasp."

As a generalist in his practice, Dr. Bartlett loves working with a diverse mix of patients and a variety of health conditions, including children with spinal problems, pregnant women, and couples facing infertility issues.

"My experience as a practicing chiropractor has reinforced what I consider to be three basic truths," states Dr. Bartlett. "The first is that chiropractic principles are as valid today as they were over 100 years ago. Secondly, patients must commit themselves to maintaining their own health. And finally, as doctors of chiropractic, we need to lead by example if we are to be considered experts in health care."

Dr. Bartlett is married and has three active teenage sons.
