When health is hard to find, we all need a little grace.

Specialty healthcare that starts with you, not a formula.

You are the decision-maker in your care here.

Dr. Melissa believes in partnering with every individual who comes to Grace. The goal is to help you understand what's happening, explore your options, and make informed decisions about your care.

What brings someone to Grace?

Persistent symptoms

Questions without clear answers

Chronic pain

Fatigue and poor sleep

Hormonal changes

Metabolic concerns

Don't see your concern here? That's okay. These are examples, not an exhaustive list. If you're wondering if Grace is a good fit, explore How Grace Works where you can send in a question.

Let's figure out what makes sense for you

Good medicine starts with listening. Your history, your symptoms, your questions, and what matters to you are all important to the conversation.

As a fully-licensed osteopathic physician (D.O.), Dr. Melissa leans solidly into the principles of osteopathy: each person is unique, the body's systems are interconnected, and structure and function influence one another.

That means there is no one-size-fits-all Grace protocol.

Her additional training in preventive and integrative medicine brings different perspectives to understanding health, preventing disease, and addressing the concerns that bring you to Grace.

We may use standard and specialty lab testing, supplements or prescription medications, osteopathic manual medicine (OMM), genetics, HeartMath and other options to build a plan that fits your body, your life and what matters to you.

“To find health should be the object of the doctor. Anyone can find disease.”
Andrew Taylor Still, founder of osteopathic medicine, 1899

What it's like to be a patient at Grace

A Steady Partner through Complex Care

Charlotte, NC

Dr. Melissa is compassionate, intelligent and creative. She is fiercely persistent when it comes to getting to the root of a problem and finding solutions. She truly cares about her patients and treats the whole person. My case has been extremely complicated. In the midst of the many visits with all of the different “ologists“, Dr. Melissa has been the one constant. Her support and encouragement have been invaluable. Her insight and recommendations have helped me to continue to stand (literally) at the amazement of other practitioners. I am forever grateful for all of her care!

Care that Takes Time

Easley, SC

She takes the time to listen, is supportive & truly wants to help. If you hate modern assembly line “health care” you will love Dr. Melissa.

Starts with Your Goals

Seneca, SC

Dr. Melissa starts with my goals and brings her expertise in epigenetics and natural supplements to support my health, rather than react to disease.
