Meet the Docs at LHW
Meet Dr. Michelle Dougherty, DC, CACCP
Dr. Michelle’s passion for chiropractic care was born of two key interests: Her appreciation for the complexity of the human body and the desire to help people. She was raised a military brat and attended Penn State University, where she majored in biobehavioral health. It was there Dr. Michelle’s love for understanding and optimizing the human body took off. And when she later had the opportunity to shadow a chiropractor, she was hooked.
Obtaining a Chiropractic Education
Inspired by the chiropractic outcomes she witnessed on herself and others, she went on to earn her doctorate from the Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa. Dr. Michelle’s immersive experience in externships and Clinic Abroad in Brazil solidified her interest in family and prenatal chiropractic care.
Dr. Michelle is always in pursuit of new ways to stay on top of the ever-evolving chiropractic field. In addition to her robust experience in various tonal, instrumental, and manual adjusting techniques, she is certified in pediatrics, and has expanded her proficiency in perinatal care and neuro-focused chiropractic care for the whole family. She attends and leads several continuing education courses, webinars, and workshops annually.

Outside the Office
Outside of LHW, Dr. Michelle enjoys spending time with her husband and son (who was adjusted mere hours after being born!), traveling, being outdoors, and playing competitive tennis year-round.
Meet Dr. Carrie Voigts, DC
Dr. Carrie has known she wanted to be a chiropractor since she was 15 years old. Thanks to chiropractic care as an adolescent to treat back pain and migraines, she found her passion for the field early on — and it’s only grown from there.
Raised on a Wisconsin dairy farm, Dr. Carrie graduated from the Palmer College of Chiropractic Care in Davenport, Iowa, and has been a practicing chiropractor in Illinois for more than a decade.
Caring for All Ages
Dr. Carrie is dedicated to helping LHW members of all ages thrive through neuro-focused chiropractic and loves witnessing firsthand the difference it makes in members’ lives. She is a lifelong learner who takes several continuing education classes each year to ensure that she is providing the best, most relevant care. She has extensive training and experience in several tonal, instrumental, and manual adjusting techniques.
