Doctor Brooke and her husband Alec reside in the West Des Moines area with their dogs Aila and Spindle and their son Olliver.

Dr. Sara Cahill was born in Newton, received a bachelor’s degree in biology from UNI, then went down south to Marietta, GA for chiropractic school at Life University where she graduated with honors in 2017.
She was inspired to become a chiropractor after having an experience in elementary school where adjustments resolved her seasonal allergies.
Megan is our billing liaison. She helps to make sure everything runs as smoothly as possible for our patients on the financial side of things. Her main job roles include checking benefits, providing superbills, and scheduling.
Megan is a mama who loves raising her little boy and spending time with her husband. In her free time, she likes to spend time outside tending to their chickens and exploring the many parks in Des Moines. She loves to hunt, fish, and meet new people.
Madeline will be our social media and marketing liaison. You'll see her most frequently taking pictures around the office or meeting people out and about in the community.
Madeline is a first time mom to her amazing daughter and is passionate about breastfeeding and baby wearing! She and her husband enjoy being outdoors with their two huskies. They spend their free time watching local music and playing trivia.
She has been active in learning the Gonstead technique since working the front desk of a Gonstead office in Cedar Falls, where she also learned this was the same technique her childhood chiropractor used to help her allergies! If you know how many techniques there are in chiropractic, you know how much of a coincidence this is!
She was deeply inspired about all the healing that can happen when under specific chiropractic care both from her own experiences and what she witnessed while working at that office.
During school, she learned about the impact that proper movement of the spine and body has on the development of the infant brain. It was then that she dedicated herself to learn as much as possible to give kids the best start at life—which often starts with helping mom become her best before pregnancy and delivery!
She spent the last 8.5 years living in Cedar Falls with her mentor she worked with in her college days, and she is excited to join the Bloom team closer to home and family as well as her boyfriend, Derek. They live in Johnston with their mini golden doodle named Gary.
Doctor Brooke attended Simpson College, where she fell in love with the Des Moines area and decided one day she would officially call it home. She received her Doctorate of Chiropractic from Northwestern Health Sciences University in Bloomington, MN, where she graduated with honors. She discovered her passion for pediatrics and pregnancy part way through her curriculum, immediately began pediatrics courses, and has amassed over 200 hours of pediatrics and prenatal work, passed a certification exam, and participated in pediatric research for the profession. She actively practices and teaches the Gonstead technique and teaches doctors and students about the technique all over the country. Doctor Brooke is an active member of the Simpson College Alumni Association and mentors individuals who are interested in the chiropractic profession.
