Meet Dr. Mithra Green
I used to think I’m the doctor; I’m going to fix you. Now I realize that it’s the patient that does the healing. I can only help guide them in the right direction.
An Introduction to Chiropractic
When he was in his early 20s, Dr. Green experienced the healing benefits of chiropractic care. At Colorado State University, he played rugby and was an avid mountain biker. “I had suffered chronic knee and shoulder pains for years. Every winter an inner ear problem would cause me significant pain when snowboarding due to the elevation change.”
He began seeing Dr. Scott White, a chiropractor, who helped him tremendously. He showed Dr. Green how his body could self-heal in spite of his belief that injuries were chronic and permanent.
As he was a chemistry major, Dr. Green initially thought he’d pursue a pharmaceutical job. “I became particularly inspired when they came out with the drug Taxol® which is derived from the rare Pacific yew trees.” He thought there have to be more things like that in terms of medication.
Chiropractic Education and Experience
Dr. Green attended Life University in Atlanta, earning his Doctor of Chiropractic in 1999. He then became an associate doctor in his father’s office where he learned low-force adjusting. In 2002, he opened his first practice on Indian River Road. To further his education, Dr. Green became a Certified Fellow of CBP® (Clinical Bio-mechanics of Posture®) and obtained CrossFit Level 1 certification.

On a Personal Note
Outside of the practice, Dr. Green enjoys spending time with his wife Jennifer and their three children Weston, Spencer and Cooper. Jennifer is a fully accredited midwife who practices at Seven Cities Midwifery Care, LLC.
Dr. Green is passionate about staying fit. He works out regularly and plays beach volleyball. He also likes running and doing yoga in his spare time. Additionally, Dr. Green volunteers with Great Neck Baseball Association where two of his three sons play. On sunny weekends, you’ll often find Dr. Green and his family spending time at the beach.
