He was awarded the JFK Presidential Physical Fitness award in 1979. Later, he became a successful competitive natural bodybuilder. His competitive career as an amateur bodybuilder spanned the 1970's until the late 1990's.His most notable competition was winning the 1981 Teenage Mr America at the Dunes Hotel in Las Vegas. Along the way he graduated college and headed West to Los Angeles to enter Chiropractic College. Christopher graduated in 1989 from Cleveland Chiropractic College. He has been a practicing Doctor of Chiropractic since 1989, and is licensed to practice in the states of New York and California. His practice is geared toward the treatment of athletes and celebrities. His small practice is a "Who's - Who" of celebrities that want extremely private Doctor/Patient care. His practice is closed to the general public and patients must be referred from previous patients only. Since he was a child, friends nick named him "SAB". After becoming a Chiropractic Doctor, the nick name changed to " Doc Sab".
Doc Sab became a Financial Advisor for Morgan Stanley in 2000. He was trained at the World Trade Center, and practiced in Burbank California for 2 years. After 9-11 he decided to devote more time toward his private practice and toward his second calling.
The second calling was where he made his name. Doc Sab began to restore classic Cadillacs. He began to restore and sell his Cadillacs to Television and Movie Stars as well as to celebrity athletes. To own one of Doc Sab's Cadillacs in Hollywood California was the "IN" thing. The first notable celebrity was David Charvet of Bay Watch Fame. Then, Robert Patorelli of "Murphy Brown" the TV series purchased a Classic 1960 Cadillac and went on "The Tonight Show" to talk about his Doc Sab restored Cadillac to Jay Leno. From there, the celebrity "IN" crowd buzzed about owning classic Cadillacs. This started a resurgence in the Cadillac name plate with the younger crowd. Christopher "Doc Sab" Sabatino DC, was asked to be a part of a Cadillac focus group. It was here that many of the thoughts about converging the old and new Cadillacs together began life. In 1999, Doc Sab's 1959 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible ( formerly owned by actor Jack Palance) was used in the "Drive The Dream" television commercials and print ads. Doc Sab also had one of his 1959 Cadillacs sold to Oakley Sun Glasses, who presented the car as a gift to Dennis Rodman, famous Basketball star.
Doc Sab has created many custom Cadillacs, most notably, the ultimate custom 1960 Cadillac called "DIABOLICAL PURPLE". This Cadillac was the first classic Cadillac to sport 20 inch wheels, air suspension and a flame throwers. It was 10 years ahead of it's time. Doc Sab worked on his car at George Barris Studio Customs in Hollywood. It was the last Custom car to come out of the Barris Studios of the 20th century. George Barris even guilded the Cadillac with one of his Barris Kustoms Badges. Shortly after completion, It won the Mercedes Benz Beverly Hills Car Show and concourse event. Easily one of the most prominent West Coast Car shows. There, many Celebrities wanted to buy it that day, but Doc Sab was asked if he would place it in "The Petersen Automotive Museum". Doc Sab's "DIABOLICAL PURPLE" was shown at the Petersen for 3 months. After winning 7 straight car shows, Doc Sab sold "DIABOLICAL PURPLE" to Extreme Sports multi World Champion Sean Palmer.
