Tamara Barker

COO

Tamara Barker works along side her husband Dr. James Barker as the COO of Bonfire Chiropractic. She first began working in the medical field at age 19 as a receptionist and over her career, moved into operations management. Over the past thirty plus years, she has worked in several specialties including gastroenterology, family practice, podiatry, pulmonology, endocrinology, and dermatology.
Her paradigm has shifted in the past 5 years from the traditional medical model of pharmaceuticals and invasive procedures as she’s learned the importance of a balanced nervous system through regular chiropractic adjustments that place the body in the optimal healing state.

In her spare time, she loves to read, travel and be outdoors with her husband and German Shepherd Murphy. She also is actively involved in ministry with her local Christian church.
