Today we’d like to introduce you to Dr. Danielle Winfrey.
Hi Dr. Winfrey, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
Since I was a little girl, I’ve known that I wanted to be a doctor. It has always been on my heart and in my dreams! I’ve always been intrigued by the human body and its ability to heal, maintain and regulate itself. Also, I’ve always had a heart to help others. It wasn’t until my senior year of undergraduate studies at Spelman College that I became acquainted with Chiropractic as a profession and fell in love. A mentor of mine, who is a pediatrician with Kaiser Permanente, initiated my quest for more information about Chiropractic when she shared her story of visiting the chiropractor regularly with her kids! Who knew children could get adjusted? Wow! I was amazed. Once I became a student at Life University, I fell in love with the philosophy of Chiropractic that speaks to the Innate Intelligence in all living beings, which gives us the ability to heal and thrive in a well-adjusted body.
During my tenure at Life, I became a Certified Childbirth Educator and Advanced Holistic Labor Doula. I learned so much about how Chiropractic care can benefit pregnant women, babies and the entire family. I infuse my Doula skills and practices into my work on a daily basis to fully support women on their journeys through the various stages of motherhood and womanhood. In early practice, I worked in offices around the Atlanta Metropolis and I have served a variety of patients. I’ve recently launched Atlanta Well Chiropractic to address the need for more comprehensive, integrative and convenient care. Through AWC, I provide concierge, corporate and mobile Chiropractic Care for families and groups. I’ve also partnered with Dominguez Injury Centers to provide support for clients that have experienced physical injury and traumas. In my years of caring for others, I’ve found that we are all on the road to wellness. Whether you are in an accident, pregnant or an athlete, you have a spine and would benefit from having it well-aligned. My mantra has become, “A Life in Alignment is an Incredible Life.”
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey have been a fairly smooth road?
Oh Wow! I believe anything worth having takes time, alignment and work! As with any profession, there are challenges. Getting through the rigorous curriculum of Chiropractic school, finding your path as a new practicing doctor, money management… working as a Black Woman in a male-dominated profession; the struggle can be real! But, the CALLING to serve is even more real! Through it all, I’ve learned to trust God and celebrate the small victories. “Learn the lessons, hone your skills and elevate above the circumstances”, that’s advice my mother gave me and it has been my way of life. Learning to walk in my own lane, embracing my uniqueness and treating business as business has really helped to solidify my confidence as a woman professional. There is a solution to every problem. Sometimes it is rest, other times it is seeking mentorship and other times, it’s good old elbow grease and figuring it out step by step.
Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
Atlanta Well Chiropractic is my purest expression of love to the world. The name says it all; Atlanta Well Chiropractic. We truly envision a city, our city, Well. We can all be Well, living life in health, optimizing our potential and thriving. We make chiropractic care accessible for busy families and individuals at any socio-economic status. I am passionate about making Chiropractic Care a staple element of a wellness lifestyle for my clients. We get down to business as soon as your visit starts. We will stretch together, have conversations about your progress, work through questions and get the whole family adjusted. I’ve had such a blast working with private house calls. I’ve serviced pregnant moms, celebrity clients, girl groups, worked in home gyms and so much more. Getting adjusted at home with your special someone creates the perfect canvas for date night! The possibilities for what we can do with Atlanta Well Chiropractic are endless. Let’s just say, if you have a spine and know others that do too, book the appointment. Let’s be Well together!
Dr. Winfrey also hosts The Well Adjusted Woman Podcast, which is streaming on all major listening platforms. On the show, she addresses Hot Topics about Chiropractic care, answers questions and busts myths! We also feature the voices of our real-life patients so that they can share their stories and encourage others to take the plunge into greatness!
Networking and finding a mentor can have such a positive impact on one’s life and career. Any advice?Listen! Seek out wise counsel! Seek it out! Invest in good relationships. And, don’t be afraid to seek mentorship and networking opportunities outside of the realm of the profession you are in. Some of my best professional and personal advice comes from mortgage brokers, firemen and other creatives.
