Meet The Team

Dr. Hayley Gutowski
D.C.

Dr. Hayley grew up in Wausau Wisconsin and has continuously been involved in competitive sports from an early age, going on to win several national dance competitions. Throughout her competitive years, chiropractic care helped her recover from sports-related injuries and prevented further injuries from occurring. “I have always had a strong desire to work in a field that promotes health and wellness. Chiropractic care was a clear choice for me with its natural, healthy lifestyle. Upon earning my Doctorate from Palmer College of Chiropractic in 2014, I had an opportunity to provide care abroad. One of my most memorable experiences came when I had the privilege to serve the people of Fiji and adjust many of the locals in different villages. This experience helped me realize the true essence of chiropractic medicine. My favorite part of being a chiropractor is being able to help people return to daily activities they enjoyed before stress, injury or illness barred them from doing so."

Outside of work she continues to stay active in the dance community, yoga, and getting outside as much as possible with her pup, Apache.

Dr. Jon Tucker
D.C.

Dr. Jon hails from a small town near Scranton, PA.  His journey into chiropractic began with a desire to understand the body's need for an adjustment.  After shadowing various healthcare specialties, he found his true calling in chiropractic.  The idea that movement is the best medicine is what makes Dr. Jon so passionate about chiropractic care.  His multi-faceted, personalized approach ensures each patient receives the highest quality care. 

 

He earned his B.S. in Exercise Science from Marywood University, and then took his passion for health to the next level at Northeast College of Health Sciences (formerly New York Chiropractic College). There, he earned his Doctorate of Chiropractic and an M.S. in Applied Clinical Nutrition. During his clinical rotations, Dr. Jon honed his skills at Northeast’s outpatient health center and the Seneca County Mental Health Clinic, and even found time to participate in the 2024 Boilermaker and Geneva Half Marathon events.

 

He holds a certificate in Sports Science and Human Performance.  Dr. Jon completed an apprenticeship in New York and worked at a clinic in Wilmington before joining our team here at North Brunswick Chiropractic.

 

When he's not in the office, Dr. Jon loves spending time with friends and family, discovering new TV shows to binge (especially true-crime!), running, and getting to know his newly rescued cats, George and Blu. He is excited to settle in and explore Wilmington and the surrounding area.

Dr. Chris Rizzo
D.C.

Dr. Rizzo grew up in Montville, New Jersey where he found the inspiration to become a chiropractor as a Freshman. During Varsity soccer tryouts, he partially tore his right quadriceps and thought his chances of making the team were gone. A family friend, who happened to be a chiropractor, suggested a visit to his office. Chris received care and was back on the field the next day! He went on to be a three sport (soccer, basketball, and lacrosse) Varsity athlete.

He received All-State recognition in soccer and was the Academic Athlete of the year as a senior. Dr. Rizzo turned down a number of Division I and III soccer offers to concentrate on academics at Boston College. He thoroughly enjoyed his time there and fulfilled his pre-chiropractic requirements, while graduating with Honors from BC. Go Eagles! He then enrolled in world renowned Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa. During his last two years at Palmer, Dr. Rizzo taught gross and spinal anatomy labs. He also began taking courses to specialize in extremity and sports injuries to become a Certified Chiropractic Extremity Practitioner. Dr. Rizzo went on to graduate with Honors from Palmer. He has also gone on to become a certified personal trainer. Dr. Rizzo loves playing all kinds of sports especially basketball, softball, and golf (more accurately, attempting to play golf!). He also enjoys watching his alma mater dominate the ACC in football and basketball, while he roots on the New York Yankees and Giants in professional sports.
