Meet Dr. Zachary I. Bonté DC., PT., DPT
Chiropractor, Physical Therapist

Dr. Zachary Bonté is a Southern California native and proud graduate of Santa Margarita Catholic High School, where he excelled both academically and as a standout athlete in football and rugby. He continued his athletic and academic career at UCLA, playing four years of rugby for the Bruins and earning his Bachelor’s degree in Economics in 2016.

After college, Dr. Bonté trained with the USA Rugby team at the Olympic Training Center before earning a rugby scholarship to Life Chiropractic College West in Northern California. He graduated with honors as a Doctor of Chiropractic in 2020. As a second-generation chiropractor, Dr. Bonté brings deep-rooted passion and purpose to his work at Agape Wellness Center, especially in treating patients recovering from motor vehicle collisions.

Driven to expand his scope of care, Dr. Bonté pursued a second doctorate in Physical Therapy. In 2022, he graduated at the top of his class, becoming one of the few dual-licensed DCs and DPTs in the country. His integrated approach allows him to treat complex injuries with a unique blend of manual therapy, rehab science, and med-legal expertise.

PT Telehealth: Dr. Bonté has played a key role in helping Agape Wellness Center pioneer PT Telehealth for personal injury patients. By combining clinical excellence with innovative technology, he’s helped shape a remote therapy model that closely mirrors in-person care—expanding access and improving outcomes for patients across the country.

A Bit More About Dr. Bonté: While earning his doctoral degrees, Dr. Bonté was contracted as a professional rugby player in Major League Rugby (MLR), playing both domestically and internationally. These days, he enjoys playing social rugby on his days off—so don’t be surprised if you catch him at the office with a black eye… you should see the other guy!

Dr. Bonté is married to fellow chiropractor and USA Rugby athlete, Dr. Amy Bonté. Together, they’re a powerhouse duo at Agape Wellness, united in their mission to help patients, athletes, and families recover, move better, and live well.
