Dr. Jeff Hoekstra, D.C.Doctor of Chiropractic
A doctor who treats the whole you
Dr. Jeffrey R. Hoekstra has built his Tinley Park practice on a simple idea: care should treat the whole person, not just the symptom. He listens first, looks for the real source of the problem, and builds a plan around your goals and your life.
A graduate of National University of Health Sciences in Lombard, IL, with undergraduate studies at Purdue University Calumet, Dr. Hoekstra has pursued continuing education in acupuncture, biomechanics, kinesio-taping, and extracorporeal shockwave therapy. That breadth lets him combine gentle, precise adjustments with modern tools like StemWave acoustic wave therapy for comprehensive, up-to-date care.
Outside the office, Dr. Hoekstra keeps busy with his wife Carrie, their three children, and Zoe, their Australian Shepherd. You will often find him running, cooking, or planning the next family trip, the same active, balanced life he wants to help his patients enjoy.

What patients say, in their own words
Every review here was left on Booksy by a verified client after a real appointment with Dr. Hoekstra.
I lived with lower back pain for over a year, and after just one visit with Dr. Jeff, I finally felt like I was on the road to recovery. A few weeks later, I'm feeling so much better and like my old self again. Dr. Jeff is knowledgeable, caring, and truly takes the time to help you feel your best. I actually look forward to my visits because I know I'm in great hands.
Dr. Hoekstra is awesome! Always friendly and makes sure you understand the process and expectations of the StemWave treatment. I had a full knee replacement in November on one knee and need the other done as well. My knee has improved to the point where I can use my knee support band to walk without pain. I recommend anyone try StemWave before surgery. It's a game changer.
Dr. Jeff did an adjustment on my six-year-old son and my son said he felt great. Dr. Jeff was very detailed with the service he was providing.
I want to say bravo, Doc! I started feeling relief quite quickly. I am encouraged and relieved for not pursuing surgery for the carpal tunnel in my right (dominant) hand. Doc is knowledgeable and did not set unrealistic expectations. Neither did he present a hard sell.
I moved from out of state about 18 months ago. I had been seeing a chiropractor in Wisconsin for about three years that I loved, and I've been struggling to find the right fit down here. This is the fifth practice I've tried since moving and I am very happy with Dr. Jeff. I've only been going here for about a month and I'm already seeing significant improvement.
I was a four-sport athlete in high school and now play college soccer as a goalkeeper. I have always had huge problems with my hips and my back, as well as headaches, for about four to five years. After my first adjustment, my headaches were completely gone and my hips no longer hurt. Highly recommend this small family business.
First-time chiropractor visit. I met Dr. Hoekstra and felt welcomed and not pressured into lifetime treatment. He is thorough in his consultation process and allows plenty of opportunities for questions. After completing my first visit I scheduled my second one.
I have experienced chronic sciatica for most of my life. Medication and physical therapy did not get to the root of the problem. Jeff has finally given me relief! He provides excellent and consistent service, always professional, and makes you feel like you are the only patient he has.
