Dixon Cotten is an intrepid problem-solver whose family has been committed to providing medical care to Albany and Southwest Georgia for generations. He enrolled in Sherman College of Chiropractic in Boiling Springs, South Carolina and embarked on the journey toward starting Southern Spine and Health.

Originally a partnership with Cotten’s father — an esteemed orthopedic surgeon in Albany who passed away in 2013 — Southern Spine and Health reflects the family’s vision for a conservative approach to healthcare that responds with thoughtfulness and precision to the patient’s concerns. Cotten believes in rigorous analysis to craft individualized and creative treatment programs utilizing patients’ real-time diagnostic data. Alongside the center’s other medical professionals, he works tirelessly to offer non-surgical and non-invasive alternatives to manage pain.

Dr. Cotten is an honor graduate of Deerfield-Windor School and Auburn University, where he earned degree with honors in Biomedical Science. He loves to spend his free time hunting, fishing, scuba diving in Southwest Georgia and traveling.
