Meet the Doctors

Dr. Lee Malmstrom

Dr. Lee was born and raised in Topeka, KS along with an older sister. He attended the University of Kansas for his undergraduate studies before moving to Davenport, Iowa to pursue a degree in chiropractic at Palmer College.  In October of 2006, he became a third generation Palmer graduate, after both his grandfather (class of 1952) and father (class of 1979).  

Dr. Leah (Thomsen) Malmstrom

Dr. Leah is originally from Everly, Iowa and graduated from Clay Central-Everly in 1999.  She attended Luther College, where she majored in biology and was a member of Luther's volleyball and softball teams.  In February 2007, she received her Doctor of Chiropractic degree with honors from Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa.  

After graduation she worked at large clinics in Kansas City and Topeka, Kansas before the opportunity came up to move back to Iowa.  Dr. Leah, along with Dr. Lee, opened up Lifetime Chiropractic in Manchester, Iowa in July of 2008.  They thoroughly enjoyed being a part of the community and guiding people towards health and wellness.  

 

Dr. Leah and Dr. Lee were married in April 2009 and a couple years later welcomed a son and a daughter into their family.  At the beginning of 2014, Dr. Leah and Dr. Lee sold their practice in Manchester and opened Spencer Chiropractic & Wellness Center to be closer to their extended family.

 

In the little free time she has, Dr. Leah enjoys spending time with her family and playing sports-especially volleyball, basketball and softball.  She is passionate about helping her patients achieve wellness in all areas of their life, as well as getting out in the community and spreading the chiropractic and wellness message.
