Today we’d like to introduce you to Scott Schreiber
Hi Scott, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
I’ve been practicing for over 20 years, and from the start, I knew I wanted to carve my own path and build something meaningful. Education and lifelong learning have always been at the heart of what I do.
A few years after I graduated, the great recession hit. I was fortunate to be working in a practice that was financially stable enough to weather the storm. During that time, I became board certified and pursued additional certifications in various techniques because I was committed to offering the very best care. My focus was always on the patient, but as the years went by, I started to feel that the emphasis on profits over patient care didn’t align with why I entered this field in the first place. That’s when I knew it was time to take a leap of faith and start my own practice.
During my search for the right place to begin this new chapter, I stumbled upon a practice in Woodbury, MN. It had some of the key elements I was looking for. So, in April of 2018, my family and I made the bold decision to move from Delaware to Minnesota. We didn’t know anyone there, but we embraced it as the biggest adventure of our lives.
From day one, I focused on enhancing the services we offered and, more importantly, on the quality of care we delivered. I believed that true success would come from building strong relationships, starting with our patients. I also reached out to other healthcare providers, local business owners, and town officials, always thinking about how I could help them, rather than what they could do for me. My goal was to create an experience for my patients, not just a routine visit. Over time, this approach led to steady growth.
Then COVID hit, bringing uncertainty to everyone’s lives. But even in those challenging times, I remained committed to the relationships I had built, always focusing on what my patients needed and finding ways to make their care easier and more accessible. I’ve also come to realize that none of us have all the answers, especially when it comes to running a business. I’m grateful to have several coaches who continue to guide me and help my business grow.
Now, with a dedicated team of doctors and staff, we’re not just looking to maintain what we’ve built—we’re planning to expand to several new locations in the near future.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Not at all! There have been many challenges. COVID was the biggest, but with all the uncertainty and negatively surrounding that, my business was able to weather the storm and with that, I have the confidence that I can go through anything!
We’ve been impressed with MN Spine and Sport, but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
At our clinic, it’s always been about the people. We’re more than just a healthcare provider; we’re a community dedicated to your well-being. Our patients value the care we provide because we go beyond just addressing symptoms—we aim to truly understand and treat the root cause of your condition. Every visit is tailored to you, beginning with a thorough physical exam that guides us in crafting a treatment plan that’s as unique as you are.
We specialize in treating a wide range of musculoskeletal injuries, from sports injuries and car accidents to chronic pain and jaw issues. Our approach is comprehensive, offering a variety of treatment options, including manipulation, therapeutic exercise, acupuncture, dry needling, cupping, manual therapy, laser therapy, PEMF, and spinal decompression.
What sets us apart is that we’re the only practice in the Twin Cities to offer all these services in one location. Our patients love the convenience of having everything they need under one roof, knowing they’re in expert hands every step of the way.
For us, it’s not just about treatment—it’s about helping you get back to doing what you love, as quickly and safely as possible. Your journey to better health is our top priority, and we’re here to support you every step of the way.
What would you say have been one of the most important lessons you’ve learned?
Take nothing for granted! Appreciate the small things!
