Dr. Sean Tipton, DC
Chiropractic Care

Dr. Sean Tipton is originally from Clearwater, Florida where he was born and raised.  After graduating from high school, he joined the Army where he pursued a career in medicine as a surgical technologist in a mobile hospital.  Once he completed his military service, he continued his exploration of the United States by being a traveling surgical technologist. This is where he had many opportunities to work at prestigious hospitals such as the Mayo Clinic.  Even though Dr. Sean has experience in a wide range of surgical techniques, he mostly specialized in orthopedics.

Dr. Sean has had the opportunity to live in 16 states across the country.  After traveling across country, he settled in Arizona with his family and pursued his higher education by completing his Bachelors degree in Life Science from the Arizona State University in 2011.  While finishing his Bachelors degree, his family of nurses moved to Austin to settle and become caregivers in the surrounding Austin Hospitals. After graduating, Dr. Sean was able to move to Austin, TX with his family.  While in Austin, he began working at Dell Children’s Hospital for the next couple of years before discovering his love for chiropractic. He was then accepted to Parker University in Dallas, where he pursued his doctorate in chiropractic care.  Dr. Sean again had the opportunity to come back to Austin and serve at the VA Outpatient Clinic where he was able to provide chiropractic care to our veterans.

Family has always been very important to Dr. Sean and moving back to Austin has given him the ability to be close to his family, his parents and three other siblings, who all live very close to each other.  In that time, Sean has had many life changes. While living here in Austin, he discovered his soulmate and got married to his wife last October. He became a father in October 2018, a beautiful baby boy named Finley. Him and his wife are very excited to be new parents.

Ever since Dr. Sean became a Chiropractor, he remains excited and enthusiastic about providing excellent chiropractic care to his patients.  He believes in healing the entire body and maintaining that level of wellness. Dr. Sean has experience in many techniques that are tailored to the individual and not the masses.  Dr. Sean is excited to bring his uniqueness of care to Austin Longevity Center. “At the end of the day, I have always thought a doctor is an educator -full of knowledge, and someone who you can rely onto teach you about your body. Someone who heals, someone who you can trust and someone who is a friend. That’s always been my goal,” says Dr. Tipton.
