Dr. Connor Naasz
Dr. Naasz is a Southern California native, born and raised in Orange County, California. In 2016, he graduated from California State University, Long Beach where he earned a Bachelor’s of Science degree in kinesiology.

Dr. Naasz has actively participated in many sports throughout his life including soccer, cross country and track and field. During his time at Long Beach State, he was a member of the track and field team where he specialized in the 400 and 800 meter events. In his free time, Dr. Naasz enjoys maintaining an active lifestyle by backpacking, skiing as well as spending much of his time down on the San Clemente beach trail. Dr. Naasz believes that patient-specific treatment and rehab can be the catalyst to improving a person’s life through communication, movement and science.
Dr. Andrea Sandoval
Dr. Sandoval attended CSUDH for her undergraduate where she received a BA in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Physical Therapy. She later graduated from SCU in 2019 with a Doctor of Chiropractic degree.
Dr. Sandoval was first inspired to pursue a career in healthcare after experiencing failed management of an injury, leaving her unable to participate in sports for a year. Her doctor gave no real answers to what was happening and made her feel like she was in the dark about her own health. This personal experience was a major driving force in her desire to provide better care to her patients.
She believes that when a patient understands their condition and how it affects them, then they are more likely to take an active role in their recovery. Her goal is to empower patients with the knowledge they need to take control of their conditions.
Eddie the Office Dog
Eddie is not your average office dog. Born and raised on the streets of Los Angeles, Eddie's journey took a remarkable turn when he found his forever home in November 2020. Since then, he has become a beloved member of our office community.
While Eddie may have a busy schedule, he manages to brighten our days with his occasional appearances in the office -you might even catch a glimpse of him diligently patrolling the reception desk. However, please understand that his primary duty is to maintain a professional atmosphere, so he may not always have time to stop and socialize with patients. In his free time, you can often find him lounging on the comfiest sofa, enjoying a well-deserved break from his responsibilities.
Eddie's presence reminds us to find joy in the little things and to take moments to appreciate life's simple pleasures. So, next time you see Eddie on his brief ventures into the office, give him a friendly nod, and know that he's an integral part of our team, diligently working behind the scenes to keep spirits high.
