Meet Dr. Erin O’Gara
Helping mothers and their babies find comfort and balance is not just my profession—it’s my passion.
Dr. Erin grew up on a farm in small town Illinois. She was always running around with a first aid kit for all of the small injuries that happened, and really found her passion for helping others at a young age. Knowing she always wanted to work in the health care, it wasn’t until she shadowed a chiropractor for the first time that she felt at home with a profession. This later fueled her to go to chiropractic school and follow her dreams of providing self-healing care to others.
A Chiropractic Education
Dr. Erin earned a Doctor of Chiropractic from Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa. “Chiropractic school is where my love for holistic health really took off. Being able to provide a hands-on approach to health and wellness blossomed throughout my time there, and only grew my belief in what chiropractic can do to change people’s lives”.
In addition to her doctorate, Dr. Erin has the following credentials:
- Webster Technique certified
- Training from the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA)
A Desire to Help People Naturally
From my own journey in chiropractic care, I’ve seen firsthand how the body’s natural ability to heal can be transformative. My passion lies in helping others experience this same profound change, guiding them toward optimal health through gentle, holistic methods that honor their body’s innate healing power, just as God intended.
Dr. Erin is dedicated to empowering her patients to embrace a holistic approach to their health, striving for overall well-being and vitality to strengthen their resilience against illness. “I love seeing individuals who are committed to their health as a whole, not merely managing symptoms but actively pursuing a balanced and thriving life.”

As a mom, Dr. Erin loves helping children achieve optimal health. “There is so much pressure in the world about what to do for your children when it comes to their health and well-being. I want to help empower parents and advocate for their children, so that they know they know they are giving them everything they need.”
Dr. Erin is dedicated to empowering women through the transformative journey of pregnancy and post-partum life. “My goal is to provide supportive, holistic care that enhances their well-being, helps them navigate changes with ease, and embraces their strength throughout this significant life stage.”
Giving birth made me realize how powerful my body is, and I want to be able to help other women see that potential too!
Enjoying Life in Lincoln
When Dr. Erin is out of the office, she enjoys spending time with her husband (Isaac), daughter (Viola), and dog (Moose)! She enjoys being outside in the sun and going for walks with her little family. If you can’t find her outside, you will most likely find her curled up in some corner of the house reading a book or taking a nap! Dr. Erin and her family also have a strong faith in God and are active members at St. Peter’s Catholic Church.
