Big news worth celebrating: Dr. Danny Knowles and Dr. Richelle Knowles have been recognized with Sherman College’s 2025 Chiropractor(s) of the Year award, an honor given to chiropractors whose service and leadership have made a meaningful impact on the College and the wider chiropractic profession.
A Well-Deserved Honor at the 52nd Sherman College Lyceum
Presented during Sherman College’s Lyceum weekend, this award reflects more than a moment on stage. It reflects years of steady commitment, generosity, and influence. Both Drs. Knowles are proud Sherman alumni (Dr. Danny, ’96; Dr. Richelle, ’99), and their work continues to represent the kind of principled leadership that strengthens chiropractic from the inside out.
Leading Through Service, Education, and Community
In private practice and beyond, the Drs. Knowles have consistently invested in people, supporting chiropractors, students, and communities through mentorship, teaching, and professional involvement.
Dr. Richelle is widely known for her work as an educator and mentor, helping chiropractors deepen their skills and build sustainable, purpose-driven practices. Her leadership extends to service roles that support chiropractic growth and scholarship.
Dr. Danny is equally respected for his long-standing contributions to principled chiropractic and for his willingness to teach, speak, and lead in ways that foster unity, clarity, and professional excellence.
Another Milestone: The Inaugural IRAPS Research and Scholarly Awards
Adding to the celebration, Dr. Danny Knowles presented and was also selected as a recipient of one of the inaugural IRAPS Research and Scholarly Awards, supported by the ChiroFutures Malpractice Insurance Program. This recognition highlights work chosen for alignment with chiropractic principles, innovation, methodological rigor, philosophical depth, and presentation quality—an exciting signal of where principled chiropractic scholarship is headed.
As a profession, we’re better when leaders share what they know, invest in the next generation, and keep the “why” at the center of their work. Congratulations, Dr. Danny and Dr. Richelle; your impact is felt, appreciated, and worth celebrating.
