Chiropractor
Patrick Jackson D.C.
Dr. Patrick Jackson was born and raised in Thomasville, NC. He attended Elon University, receiving degrees in Biology and Anthropology. He attended Palmer College of Chiropractic in Port Orange, Florida.
Following graduation, Dr. Patrick completed a residency in Charleston, SC focused on Chiropractic Neurology.
Upon returning to Thomasville NC, Dr. Patrick was diagnosed with Lyme Disease, which began a focus on functional medicine, specifically about auto-immune disorders. Through these life experiences and with help from many incredible Integrative Medical Doctors along the way, Dr. Patrick was able to overcome this illness holistically with the use of combining clean diets and supplementation. He uses these skills daily in practice when patients visit the office as a last resort. "When the Medical and Pharma industries have failed us, we must look to the body as a whole, find the root cause of dis-ease, and create a protocol that allows the body to truly heal."
Dr. Patrick took over the practice in 2018 and immediately began developing new tools and outlooks for patients. He believes that the community as a whole can benefit drastically from Chiropractic and Functional care.
Dr. Jackson and his wife have lived in Thomasville NC since returning from Chiropractic College in 2015 and welcomed their baby Wilder Lee in August of 2020.

Marilyn was born in Georgetown, SC, and moved to Thomasville, NC in 1972. Many of you may know Marilyn because she has been part of the Jackson Clinic of Chiropractic family for 28 years.
She has held many roles in this office building, but her all-time favorite job is being hands-on with our wonderful patients and helping them with their therapies.
