Newberry doctor of chiropractic Allison Kyzer was recently named Rising Star by Sherman College of Chiropractic. The Rising Star Award is given to a recent Sherman College graduate who has demonstrated exceptional achievements and service in the community.
Dr. Kyzer is a December 2012 Sherman College graduate and opened Midlands Chiropractic in Newberry, SC, on April 15, 2013. Already a force in her community, she was voted The Best Chiropractic Office in 2013 by Newberry Observer readers.
She has participated in a canned goods drive and with Toys for Tots; joined a Relay for Life team and a running team for the Newberry Half Marathon; has reached out to the Hispanic community by giving a health talk (with translator); and sponsors several local groups and events including the Newberry High School Band, City of Newberry Fire Department golf tournament, and a 5K for Autism Awareness.
Dr. Kyzer holds spinal screenings at local schools, at Newberry College’s freshman orientation, and at other community events, and she writes as a guest columnist for the Newberry Observer focusing on chiropractic topics. She regularly speaks to Newberry College’s Future Medical Professionals Association on choosing chiropractic as a career; three students are planning to attend Sherman College thanks to her efforts.
“Dr. Kyzer is making a difference in her community, and we are proud to have her as a representative of Sherman College,” said college President Dr. Edwin Cordero of her accomplishments. “This is how you rise to the top.”
Sherman College named its 2014 award recipients May 1-3 as part of Lyceum, an annual continuing education and homecoming event attended by hundreds of chiropractors throughout the U.S. and internationally. Lyceum is held on the college’s campus in Spartanburg, SC, and involves three days of seminars, special events and other programs.
