Dr. Gail Beard has recently joined Dixie Chiropractic on a full-time basis. Dr. Beard is an experienced, second-generation chiropractor and her friendly and patient-focused attitude gives patients the confidence that they are being listened to and well cared for during their treatments: "I love what I do for a living and truly believe that our treatment programs help many people. I am also convinced that projecting this attitude to patients is immensely beneficial toward their recovery. I let patients know that we are partners in their recovery, each of us doing our job to the best of our ability"

Each patient receives a thorough evaluation and is then given a personalized, comprehensive care program to help relieve pain and improve quality of life. In addition, Dixie Chiropractic has excellent relationships with medical specialists and diagnostic testing facilities should those referrals be necessary.

Assisting Dr. Beard is Megan Flanagan. Megan has many years of experience with office management and patient care in the Houston area. Megan and her family have relocated to Lake Jackson and she is excited about her new position at Dixie: "I can honestly say that the quality of care in this facility is exceptional. The genuine concern for each patient that walks through our door is obvious. I really do enjoy where I work!"
