Today we’d like to introduce you to Dr. Alex Osorio.
Dr. Osorio, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
It all started with a dream of having a health center where we could provide top-notch chiropractic services to our community. But I’m not going to lie, it was way harder than expected. It took us a year and a half to open, going back and forth with the city, inspections and approvals. The bank never approved the loan through SBA and when we were finally able to get through all these hoops, then the pandemic and mandatory quarantine started. We never closed our doors and little by little through social media efforts and word of mouth we were able to stay afloat. We had to get creative and think outside the box, I had doctors with 30 years in practice calling me that they were going out of business and of course, I was terrified. We trusted the process and invested back into the business every single penny, we were blessed to see the harvest of those seeds. It is always about creating momentum and those few weeks it was all about that. In a matter of no time, we overgrew our staff and that was another challenge, hiring the right staff. During the pandemic as many of you know there were many deferments and stimulus that made it really hard to find the right candidates to join our mission and vision. With consistency, we made it happen and up to this date we believe to be in one of the fastest growing practices in South Florida.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
In a business, if you’re not expanding, you are contracting. With that being said, it is never easy and the challenges are always going to be new and different. At the beginning, it was more the opening process and the staying alive; now it’s staff, customer service and of course like any successful entrepreneur always looking for ways to expand and get better at our craft.
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about Optimum Spine Chiropractic?

All the credit has to go to God, without him with all the adversity we had to get started, we’d for sure would’ve failed. Second my family was my main support, as mentioned before SBA denied any help for buildout, therefore my parents, in-laws and wife loaned money to get started our business. Last but not least, my main mentor Richard and Sherri Rosado who were there every step of the way, they’ve been a huge blessing and part of my success.
