Dr. Willen has practiced in Greensboro, North Carolina since 1984 and is a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician. Prior to receiving his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from National College of Chiropractic, he studied at East Carolina University. Dr. Willen stated, "I became a doctor to help people-as a pre-med student Dr. Earl Barbour gave me the gift of a chiropractic adjustment and I changed my profession from that point on...by my serving on the FCLB Board, I will continue to help our leaders preserve the integrity of the licensing boards in chiropractic regulation." Dr. Willen has been the President of the North Carolina Board of Chiropractic Examiners since 1999 having been appointed by the Governor of North Carolina as a board member in 1998. Dr. Denham has served as FCLB director since 1999 and has also been active in various leadership roles on the Georgia board. Dr. Wayne Wolfson, FCLB President, stated, "Our board and organization has benefitted from the knowledge and commitment of Dr. Denham-she has made a significant contribution to chiropractic regulation and our profession."
