Meet Dr. Melissa McKinney! A “nurturer” by nature, my compassion to help and serve others is what led me to pursue medicine. I originally wanted to become a doctor of osteopathy because of their philosophy which takes a holistic, mind-body-spirit approach to caring for patients. Later I realized that very few are actually able to practice in that way. That’s when I learned about Chiropractic. It was exactly the right path for me. I believe that my faith and my profession go hand-in-hand in that, I believe God has created us to be “self-healing” and as a chiropractor I facilitate that with a holistic, non-invasive and patient-centered approach. Helping people when the traditional medical model has failed them has been the most rewarding aspect so far. And, there is nothing more gratifying than when a patient comes to you as their “last hope” and you give them their life back. Most people are still unaware of what chiropractors do and have a misguided idea that you only see a chiropractor when you are in pain or injured. Although we do excel in those areas, I hope to change this misconception by educating people on being more proactive and use chiropractic as the preventative medicine it was meant to be. My own personal health struggles have motivated me to be more proactive and the biggest advocator for a healthy lifestyle for all. I am originally from Amarillo, TX., but have lived in Oklahoma most of my adult life and consider it home. I am a mother of three amazing kids, and Mimi to three even more amazing grandkids. Having the support of my husband and family throughout this journey has been invaluable. I love going to visit family in the Destin-FWB area as often as possible and planning last-minute getaways with my husband. I am humbled by the invitation to be part of such an amazing profession which is committed to providing the best overall patient care. I personally strive to be the “present time conscious” doctor every patient deserves.
