Dr. Coy was the founder and director of the CHER Foundation for almost 40 years, next year will be the 40th anniversary of the Foundation. His true passion in life was helping people, this was why he became a chiropractor and why he formed the CHER Foundation. Dr. Coy graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic in June of 1965.

His accomplishments, achievements, awards, certificates, degrees, and recognitions are truly too numerous to name, and surely, we would not be able to list them all.
