NOTICE – To all our beloved patients – it is with deepest regret that we are announcing the closing of this office effective immediately. As Dr. Lawrence has told most of you repeatedly, he had no intentions of ever retiring. He assumed he would adjust patients until one day he would just “fall over dead”. But several weeks ago, he started experiencing terrible pain in the right hip joint. MRI revealed tearing of the cartilage (labrum) in his right hip. The pain is quite intense, barely enabling him to walk, much less being able to bend over to adjust anyone. This injury is forcing him, against his will, to retire after 45 years in practice. We will be listing the practice for sale on several venues, looking for someone who is compassionate, caring, ethical, and competent to have their practice here. When it sells, we will put that information on the door as well as on the answering machine, and be aware it may take several months to locate a buyer. We are truly sorry that we don’t have a chiropractor to refer you to in this vicinity that uses the same techniques as Dr. Lawrence. For you patients who live south of us (Lavonia, Hartwell, Royston, and Athens) there is a chiropractor in Hartwell who uses this technique – Dr. Stephen Nichols (phone number 706-376-7183/his email is doctornichols@hotmail.com).
ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS:
What about the supplements?
A: You can email Dr. Jean at lawrencewellness@gmail.com to have her add you to our online dispensary called Fullscript.
What about my records and xrays?
A: Once you have decided on which chiropractor you will be using, their office will need to EMAIL Dr. Jean with your signed release from their office, and we will get your records and/or xrays to them. This is how we must do this for legal purposes; please do NOT call us or email us to pick up your records from the office.
What about Dr. Jean? Is she retiring also?
A: Jean will continue her virtual practice – you may email her directly for appointment information.
