I'm so thankful to have found Dr. Meg after a few years of dealing with upper back and neck pain after a car accident! My boss recommended her, I was hesitating at first bc I'd never been to a chiropractor before. Once I got there I was very pleased. The atmosphere was homey, yet professional. It made you feel very comfortable and that's important to me!

Doctor Meg is very professional, and very skilled at what she does! After I leave my appointment I feel honestly like a brand new person! If you're looking for a family chiropractor I'd highly recommend Doctor Meg! She's the best around in my book! She definitely can get you to feeling your best!

Oh I love this chiropractor! Dr. Meg has impacted my health and wellness in so many ways! My visits to her office have been incredibly helpful, especially during acute discomfort and pain. After my car accident I struggled with low back pain and neck stiffness that I was afraid would never go away. Her holistic knowledge and chiropractic skill changed that for me only after a few visits!

I have been particularly impressed with the way the office has handled patients during COVID. Her cleanliness and care has been thoughtful and wise during this difficult time. I highly recommend this office!

Doctor Meg is by far the best and most professional chiropractic I've had the opportunity to work with. She is extremely knowledgeable in her field and is constantly working to expand her knowledge. Exams are thorough and comprehensive. She is my choice as my lifetime chiropractor.

Dr. Meg and her staff are AMAZING! She's ALWAYS just a phone call away. I didn't visit a chiropractor regularly until finding her. She is always very thorough, answers all questions and even makes suggestions about health in general. She always suggests things for me try to keep my chiropractic costs low. She really cares about your total care. I recommend her at every given opportunity and will continue to do so.

My children are adults now and I have referred them. I can't rave enough about how sincere, thoughtful, experienced, and friendly Dr. Lawson is. If you are ever in need of honest chiropratic care please see her. You'll be so glad you did!

Dr. Meg is the absolute best! She came highly recommended by my Chiropractor in Michigan when we relocated to Athens, Georgia back in 2017. She is compassionate and caring. Her techniques are painless and her direction priceless. The office therapy dog, Dixie passed away this year leaving little Gracie Lou alone to greet patients. Dr. Meg keeps me up & running.

She has always returned my calls and if possible fit me in on a busy day. My health continues to improve with her treatments and guidance. Give her a try. You won't regret it!

Dr Meg has been my chiropractor for almost 18 years, including through 2 car accidents, knee surgeries, and the day in and day out of growing older. I had only been a patient for a few months when I was T-boned by another driver. After a trip to the ER and X-rays, I was sent home with a few prescriptions for pain relief & muscle relaxers. I saw Dr Lawson the next morning.

By then the bruises, aches, pains and mental fog had really set in. After a gentle and thorough exam, she gently did a little adjusting, moist heat, wonderful advice for the serious bruises from the seat belt, scheduled another appointment with her for in a few days AND the strong recommendation to see my primary care physician that day for a probable concussion.

I have had a few other serious and painful problems that her timely care was the healing touch I needed. I say all that to say why Dr Meg Lawson will always be my chiropractor, she will always be part of my wellness journey. I so appreciate her gentle, professional chiropratic care. (She was not my first chiropractor, but she's my forever chiropractor!

And my family!) She always has positive, helpful advise for specific issues or problems AND she also makes referrals when appropriate. Dr Meg is very conscientious about providing a safe environment in her clinic, especially during this COVID-19 pandemic. I highly recommend Dr Lawson for all people, all ages and issues.

My husband and I have been patients, clients of Dr Meg Anne Lawson for over 10 years. She is an excellent example of what a GOOD doctor should strive to be. Highly skilled and with advanced degrees in her field. Plus her selfless work in her spare time with underprivileged citizens in her community. With her patients, she asks questions, really listens to what we tell her prior to adjusting us and then concentrates on the problem areas.

She is always ready with ideas and more information to help us recover from an injury or to remain healthy. We appreciate her pleasant, low-key manner as she works and love her therapy dog "Gracie". We recommend her to anyone needing the best Chiropractor in the area.

Meg Lawson is a knowledgeable chiropractor. She has helped keep me pain free when other medical professionals wanted to just add more medications to hide the pain. She has gone out of her way to accommodate my needs. She fully understands the body and the cause and effect of misalignment. She spends time educating me on ways to prevent repeating the same misalignments. I would highly recommend her for all chiropractic needs. She has done a great job keeping her practice safe during these trying times with COVID.

My family has been going to Lawson Family Chiropractic for years. Dr. Meg Lawson is fantastic! She is extremely knowledgeable and has been able to help keep us healthy and pain free. Recently she discovered the reason for my wife's ongoing pain in her leg and after treatments with Lawson Family Chiropractic my wife is finally able to walk again without pain. Dr. Meg is someone that I recommended to people all the time.

Dr Lawson was amazing!!!! I went in with issue I had been dealing with for a while. She had me share exactly what was bothering me and took a very thorough medical history. I have an autoimmune problem and so she was very aware of how my body would flare up with too much too soon! I felt relief about 24 hrs after my appointment and it just keeps getting better! The fact she also works on and loves dogs is just an added bonus! Id recommend her to anyone!!!

My husband and I have been going to Dr. Lawson for 10 years. I go once a month. She has helped me tremendously. She is by far the best chiropractor we have ever been to. She truly cares about her patients. We both highly recommend her. I used to suffer from really bad headaches, and I do not anymore. She has been a life saver. Very educated and knows how to help me get through my struggle with Rheumatoid Arthritis. Along with her dietary and exercise advise, I feel much healthier. Great doctor and great person!

I've been seen by many chiropractors over the last 49 years and I've worked for 3. I am pleased to recommend Dr Lawson as the BEST!! She has more knowledge in many areas than any I've seen and knows which techniques to use and HOW to do them. I'm very impressed with her and will continue to go to her. She has helped my problem that doctors can only throw pain meds at!

I normally use Yelp to scout out places to eat but my experience with this place has been unreal. I had back spasms during midterms and needed to get my back treated immediately. Walking in, Dr. Lawson saw I was in a lot of pain and squeezed me in. No appointment or anything. She is such a sweet lady and so is her desk assistant, Chris. When coming back for follow-up appointments, there is little to no wait time.

She also has two friendly dogs who come up to snuggle with you in the waiting area to pass the time. Outstanding place and I plan to continue to come here for the foreseeable future.

I have seen many chiropractors over the years and Dr. Lawson has helped me more already than any other doctor I have been treated by. I feel confident that with her help I will be able to regain so much quality of life and I am so grateful to have found this practice.

I don’t know who Kelly Nguyen is, but she did not show up at Dr. Meg Lawson of Lawson Chiropractic if she said it was in a trailer and dirty. I’ve been going to Dr. Meg for the last 5 years and her office is nice. She is really amazing with her treatment and very good at explaining exactly what is out of place and why your body is experiencing certain pains.

She also doesn’t try to sign you up for un-needed treatment. She’s so good that I travel over an hour to get to her office. It’s well worth it! I believe the bad review was from a competitor or a friend of a competitor. Dr. Meg is Great!

Suffering from back pain, and migraines, I started going here 3 years ago. I had never been to a chiropractor before, and I am so thankful my first experience with one, was with Dr. Lawson. She is personable, and knows her stuff. She has helped me so much along the years, and I could never thank her enough. The facility is clean, and maintained, and the other staff are warm and welcoming.
Albert Wiesner
Dr. Meg's adjustments are first class and when needed, she suggests exercises to do at home. As a patient, I realize that I have to do my part as well. Also, she is not at all pushy in re-scheduling. I highly recommend Lawson Family Chiropractic.
Cecilia Harris
I’ve been to a lot of the chiropractors here in Athens but I’ve been at Dr. Lawson‘s practice for 5+ years because she offers long-term management not quick fixes at lower costs than most of the other chiropractors. She has a wide knowledge base not just in chiropractic care but alternative therapies for other health issues plus her in-depth knowledge on nutrition and supplements.
Susan McCormick
Dr. Meg has competently treated me and my family for 20+ years. She is knowledgeable in many areas including vitamins, supplements, exercises and will not hesitate to refer someone to another healthcare professional if a condition warrants. I appreciate that she does not overcharge in order to lavishly furnish an office. She is conveniently located in a more-than-adequate house/office on Gaines School Road. It is her expertise and care for patients that is important to me.
Anne O. Summers
Dr. Meg has been a key player in maintaining my health over the last two dozen years, helping through a couple of serious health challenges and keeping me tuned up between those episodes. She stays current on advances in her own and related fields especially nutrition and clearly explains how such info relates to a particular symptom. She always instructs on simple exercises to help maintain the adjustment and which ones to avoid.

Most importantly, Dr. Meg is a good multi-modal "listener", paying attention not just with her ears, but with her eyes and her hands to the status of your body and how it responds to treatment. Several friends of various ages also value her work for themselves and their families.
