Doctors Dawn and Michael Falite

Dr. Dawn Falite, was born in Canandaigua, New York.  She spent her youth in Orlando, FL and Gainesville, GA. She found her niche as an honors student, cheerleader, and musician. She played the harp with several symphony orchestras as well as playing professionally for weddings and parties. This led her to receive a music scholarship to the University of Florida.

Dr. Michael Falite was born and raised in Billerica, Massachusetts, a suburb of Boston. The youngest of five children, he excelled in athletics at an early age. He set multiple local and state records on the football field during high school. He then attended Holy Cross College on a full football scholarship, where he was a four-year letterman for the nationally ranked championship Crusader teams.

The two met while at Life University in Marietta, GA, the largest and most prestigious chiropractic college in the world. They both had numerous accomplishments while at Life. Dr. Dawn was involved in several technique clubs, philosophy groups, and cheerleading. She became one of the few students to be certified in two separate areas (adjusting and X-ray). She assisted multiple students in fulfilling their academic and clinical requirements. As a senior level student, she became the office manager for a chiropractic office in Marietta.

Dr. Michael was able to earn a paid teaching position at Life while a student. This position, a highly elite one earned by less than 1% of all students, allowed Dr. Michael the opportunity to supervise and help other students during their clinical training. He personally assisted with some of the most complicated cases in the Southeast. Both the doctors finished their clinical requirements in half the time allotted. They dated all through school and were married in June 1995, three months after graduating with honors.

The two decided to stay in the metro area (Dr. Dawn refused to move to the cold Northeast,) and they chose Alpharetta/Cumming because of its family atmosphere. Falite Family Chiropractic opened to serve in May 1996 and has recently relocated to a home/office.  The Falites and their two children, Grant and Ava, love having the office in their home.  Sugar, the dog, also enjoys seeing all the patients!

Drs. Dawn and Michael are grateful for the opportunity to help the families of their community! They look forward to helping you too!

As a Chiropractic Assistant, Krista is constantly learning about the wonderful health benefits of the adjustment.  One of the best benefits to being a part of Team Falite is receiving regular adjustments herself!  She truly enjoys helping the great people that come in for care and seeing first-hand the positive impact chiropractic has on their lives.  She is excited to welcome you to our chiropractic family!
