JOSHUA TAYLOR D.C.

CHIROPRACTOR

 I love seeing my patients get out of pain, but more importantly I love helping my patients reach their wellness goals. I have a wonderful , beautiful, supportive wife at home that has blessed me with two beautiful daughters. We all enjoy staying active, being outside, and playing games. I play the guitar . I’m very good at trivia because I’m full of useless knowledge and I also collect Alabama national championship cokes that I am quickly running out of room for.

DAN MCCLELLAN D.C.

CHIROPRACTOR

My name is Dr. Dan McClellan, and I have been practicing chiropractic for 32 years and counting. Since 1992, I have operated a solo practice in Anniston, Alabama, and I also have the pleasure of practicing alongside my brother and sister-in-law. Over the years, I have primarily focused on family care, treating patients ranging from 1 to 101 years old. Additionally, I have had the privilege of working with athletes at all levels, from high school to collegiate and professional sports. Throughout my career, my greatest passion has been witnessing the profound impact chiropractic care can have, not only on an individual’s health but also on entire families. To this day, I remain deeply passionate about chiropractic and enjoy sharing its benefits with others.

CLAYTON KOON D.C.

CHIROPRACTOR

Hello! My name is Dr. Clayton Koon. I was born and raised in Douglas County, GA where
I fell in love with chiropractic. Growing up I watched my mother suffer from breast cancer
treatment, and I am blessed to still have her today. I believe my passion for chiropractic is linked
to her experience. Chiropractors work with the ‘subtle substance of the soul’. This is the nervous
system, which animates every cell, tissue, and organ in our bodies. If the spine is properly
aligned, the body has the ability to function and heal on a superior level. I will not take this
privilege for granted!

I started my journey in 2018 at Life University. As a dual enrolled student I earned my
Bachelor’s of Science degree in 2021, and my Doctor of Chiropractic degree in 2023. During
this time I practiced in Marietta, GA at the Life University Outpatient Clinic. I also served in
Kennesaw, GA where we saw hundreds of dedicated patients with different complaints. We
were able to identify each cause through x-ray analysis. It’s amazing to see how the power of
the chiropractic adjustment changes lives for the better!

My parents and older sister have always been very supportive. During chiropractic
school I met my girlfriend of two years, Dr. Alexis Love. During our free time we love being
outdoors and going to Atlanta Braves games. I believe God has a purpose for us all and I am
excited to see what God has in store for us every day!

Michelle Lasseter

OFFICE MANAGER ​

 I especially love working with the staff to educate our team on serving the best patients in Alabama! I am here to answer any questions that the patients, Doctors, or staff may have. If I don’t know the answer I will find it for you. I am married and my husband and I have 3 grown children and 3 grandchildren. We love restoring old furniture, home improvement projects, and anything that involves our grandchildren. My fun fact is that Dr. Mike hired me at the age of 19. I won’t say how old I am, but just know it was before the internet was invented!
