Dr. Michael Johnsey is one of the longest-serving members of The Joint Chiropractic family, having been part of it since 2012. He began working at Shadow Creek in 2017. He received his doctorate from Texas Chiropractic College in 1997. He previously attended McNeese State and Xavier; he received a bachelor of science in nursing,and a master of science in nurse anesthesia.
“The thing I love the most about being part of the chiropractic field is engaging with patients,” Dr. Johnsey says. “Diagnosing and treating patients appropriately and helping them regain full function of their body is extremely gratifying.”
A native of Louisiana, Dr. Johnsey enjoys fishing,and would prefer to do that than just about anything. It’s a great pastime because he can do it with his four sons, which includes twins. He and his wife also have a rescue dog named Duke.
“There’s no great circumstance for why I got into chiropractic,” Dr. Johnsey says, “but I enjoy doing it and I know daily that this is what I’m supposed to be doing.”
Dr. Johnsey enjoys people, and that’s what he likes most about being the local chiropractor for Shadow Creek. “We have, overall, wonderful owners and patients who want to improve,” he says.
In Case You Didn’t Know
Dr. Johnsey says the one thing he always keeps in his refrigerator is milk. “I like it,” he says.
A fan of football and the Houston Texans, Dr. Johnsey would love to throw a dinner party and maybe a few passes with some of his favorites, quarterback Deshaun Watson, defensive end J.J. Watt, and wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins. His fourth for this fantasy football dinner party would be actor Dwayne Johnson, who was a defensive lineman for the University of Miami Hurricanes before he achieved wrestling stardom as The Rock.
“I would like to know what, in common, gives them the drive to compete at such a high level,” Dr. Johnsey says.
He says his greatest achievement is raising four sons. “Making the effort to be there and watching them develop and accept new challenges has been extremely rewarding,” he says.
