Meet The Doctors
Dr. Gary Mitchell began filling in at The Joint Tates Creek clinic in September 2022. The number of his loyal patients grew, and to their delight, he came on board as lead chiropractor in December of 2023.
Dr. Gary, as his patients call him, enjoys the relationship-building aspects of his work. He likes utilizing and teaching the neurologic benefit of chiropractic adjustments. His previous practice was in Dry Ridge, Ky.
While growing up in Las Vegas, Nev. he was introduced to chiropractic by a good friend.
His wife, Elizabeth, “always says yes when someone needs help,” he says. His daughter, Kimberly, is a favorite travel partner. The family has a cat named Spunky who Dr. Gary says “definitely has attitude issues!”
When he’s not working, Dr. Gary enjoys golf, spending time at the gym, and watching sports. “Go Cowboys!”
He went to the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, where he studied biology, anatomy and physiology, and he earned a Doctorate of Chiropractic at Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa.
“The chiropractic profession kept coming up while I was studying physical therapy,” he says. “I had a lot of family support.”
One of Dr. Gary’s favorite features of working as a chiropractor is that he gets to focus on chiropractic adjustments.
In Case You Didn’t Know
He always has Diet Coke on hand.
If he could plan the ideal dinner party with four famous guests, Dr. Gary would invite:
- Mother Teresa - “for Wisdom”
- Jim Gaffigan - “to keep it light”
- Thomas Edison - “because he was prophetic about natural healing”
- D.D. Palmer - “who discovered modern chiropractic and its connection to the central nervous system”
Dr. Gary’s most memorable and happiest moments were Christmas mornings when he was a child.
If he wrote an autobiography, the title would be I Wanted to Be a Comedian, But I Wasn't Funny.
If Dr. Gary could offer advice to others, it would be: “Don't worry and keep on going. Every day is a new beginning!”
Dr. Ronnie Cook became part of The Joint Chiropractic’s team of local healthcare providers in 2024, doing the satisfying work of serving residents in Lexington at both the Tates Creek and Regency Centre clinics.
“I love getting to know my patients and laughing with them,” he says. “I also enjoy getting to work with athletes.”
Dr. Ronnie, as his patients call him, previously worked in Hazard, Inez, and Prestonsburg, Ky. and Wise, Va.
Growing up in Inez, a small town in Eastern Kentucky, Dr. Ronnie watched as many people struggled with opioid addiction. “I wanted to offer something different,” he says.
His wife, Cheyenne Burge, is a pharmacy manager at the Walgreens at Lansdowne in Lexington. They have three cats – Shirley, Larry, and Ginny. “Ginny is a foodie and Shirley is a sweet and gentle soul,” he says. “Larry is the problem child; he likes to rip up toilet paper.”
Dr. Ronnie and Cheyenne love to travel. “Our favorite trip was to the island of Kauai, Hawaii,” he says. “I also enjoy playing basketball and pickleball.”
After earning a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology at Alice Lloyd College in Pippa Passes, Ky., Dr. Ronnie earned a Doctorate at Sherman College of Chiropractic in Boiling Springs, S.C.
A specialist in treating athletes, Dr. Ronnie became a certified chiropractic sports physician, or CCSP. “This certification allows me to volunteer for the U.S. Olympics where I would work alongside other CCSPs and athletic trainers to care for the athletes,” he says.
He knew chiropractic was his calling when he earned extra credit for being the most calm with his patients during school. “I was once asked to do all the exams in an office because I had a gentle, calming voice with my patients,” he says.
One aspect he finds interesting is that each patient is so unique. “I’ve worked on patients as young as 2 weeks old and up to 88 years old,” Dr. Ronnie says. “One memorable one was a 67-year-old bicyclist with X-rays showing minimal arthritic changes. It reminded me how important it is to get out and move.”
What he likes about working in Lexington is the demeanor of the patients and staff. “They are all so nice,” he says. “It’s a great, stress-free experience.”
In Case You Didn’t Know
Dr. Ronnie always has Reese's Peanut Butter Cups in his refrigerator. “They're better cold,” he says.
If he could plan the ideal dinner party including famous guests, Dr. Ronnie would invite Adam Sandler and Chris Farley “because I love their humor, their movies, and l love to laugh,” he says. “I would also invite Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal because they're my favorite athletes of all time.”
One of the greatest experiences of his life was a helicopter ride in Hawaii. “It was so beautiful,” he says. “It reminded me we should live life to the fullest.”
The last book Dr. Ronnie read was The Shining. “I do enjoy Stephen King's twisted tales,” he says.
