Dr. Byron Jackson

Byron G. Jackson, D.C., had an adolescent dream of becoming a doctor. However, growing up in the inner city of Cleveland, OH, he had to resist the challenges of peer-pressure and temptations.  It was at this time that he adopted the philosophy that “tough time’s never last but, tough people do.”  Dr. Jackson also had the support of loving parents who continuously challenged him to always strive for excellence and expect the promises of God for his life. With his God-given charge, young Byron persevered and participated in many school activities, held various leadership positions, and received recognition for high scholastic achievements.  He also won other awards for his involvement in oratorical contests and has received special recognition from the board of education, local clergymen, healthcare providers, prominent educators, and elected officials. He is considered to be a self-motivated individual who values education and self-improvement, and from his experience, he believes that setting goals and having confidence are the key attributes to living a successful life.  This was evident in his life as he had earned his baccalaureate and doctorate degree and become an author all by the age of twenty five.

In Dr. Jackson’s effort to give back to his community, he established the Dr. Byron Jackson Think Large International Scholarship Award in 2009, which is awarded to a high school senior pursuing a career in the health field for their willingness to become one of the leaders of tomorrow and live the American Dream.  He is also regarded as “The Good Doctor” among his colleagues and peers because of his dedication to excellence and patient wellness.  In addition to being a doctor of chiropractic, author of “Stand Tall, Dream Big, Think Large, I Dare You,” speaker, and a health coach, Dr. Jackson is also the recipient of two NCAA Football National Championships with Mount Union College.

Dr. Jackson also believes in the philosophy “if you learn something that’s valuable, then you should share it with others.”  Dr. Jackson’s future plans are to encourage youths and adults alike to strive for excellence in every endeavor of life.
