?Dr. Mayfield’s career has spanned 3 decades. Dr. Mayfield has treated tens of thousands of patients around the Atlanta area.
An Atlanta native, Dr. Mayfield began his fascination with the study of the human body as a pre-med/pre-dent major at the University of Georgia. After suffering sports injuries in high school, Dr. Mayfield was treated by a Chiropractor, which led him to his professional career in Chiropractic. He graduated from Logan College of Chiropractic in 1976. Dr. Mayfield received his Georgia license in April of 1977.
Dr. Mayfield’s goal as a physician has been to provide his patients with the highest level of care through the use of his extensive diagnostic and treatment knowledge. He continues to treat a wide variety of cases specializing in the treatment of lower back pain, slipped or herniated discs, sciatica, failed back surgeries, headaches, neck pain, and arm pain.
Dr. Mayfield feels very strongly, that no person should elect back surgery without trying all conservative treatment available. Dr. Mayfield has successfully treated thousands of patients that were scheduled for back surgery. In his 35 years of experience, Dr. Mayfield estimates 95% of all lower back pain (lumbar disc involved) cases can be successfully treated without surgery.
15 years ago Dr. Mayfield realized that many of his patients were dissatisfied with their medical doctors. The patients were being treated like numbers with conditions rather than individuals. The medical doctors were not listening to their complaints and their bedside manner was poor.
After hearing these complaints over and over again, Dr. Mayfield decided to integrate his practice to include medical doctors. The office then offered laboratory diagnosis and medical examinations and treatment. Now his patients have a medical doctor that listens, promotes wellness care, and handles their medical needs with a courteous friendly bedside manner.
Dr. Mayfield has been active in the Georgia Chiropractic Association, the American Chiropractic Association, and in 1994, was elected to the International Chiropractic Knights of the Roundtable. Dr. Mayfield is presently the Chairman of the International Chiropractic Knights of the Roundtable.
When not at his office caring for patients, you will find Dr. Mayfield playing golf, sitting on the beach, traveling, or enjoying time with his family (his wife Jori, daughters Melanie and Cheney, sons Joe and Chris, and his grandson Bash).
