About Discover Chiropractic Center
Trusted Care in Midtown Mobile Since 1990
Over 35 years ago, Dr. Donald Ellis and his wife Karen put down roots in the Dauphin Way Historic District when few others believed in the area. They bought a two-story home on the corner of Lafayette and Dauphin Street, lived upstairs, and opened Discover Chiropractic Center downstairs.
That choice wasn’t just about starting a practice; it was about becoming part of this community. Today, that same commitment guides everything we do as Midtown Mobile has grown into one of the city’s most vibrant neighborhoods.
You’re More Than a Diagnosis Here
After caring for nearly 10,000 patients, Dr. Ellis has learned that healing isn’t just about your spine. It’s about understanding you as a whole person—your fears, your goals, and your daily life. We look into your eyes, listen to your story, and tailor each visit to your needs: physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Our adjustment rooms are filled with positive sayings and reminders that your body has an incredible ability to heal with the right support.
Honest, Straightforward Care with No Gimmicks
You won’t find gimmicky low-fee first visits followed by surprise long-term care plans. You’ll find a doctor who respects your time and your right to understand what’s happening with your body. Dr. Ellis takes X-rays if needed, performs an exam, and in most cases provides same-day care on your first visit. If you’re hurting and we can safely help you today, we will.
A Practice Built on Real Relationships
Our office is in a historic home near McGill-Toolen Catholic High School and the Alabama School of Math and Science. People—students, retirees, blue-collar workers, and professionals—trust us with their care. We’re a Blue Cross Blue Shield provider and work with most major insurance plans to make it easy for you to access quality care.
