Dr. Melodie M. Billiot
Dr. Billiot is a best-selling author, the founder and owner of Alternative Health Atlanta, and the developer of the EvecticsSM system of natural health improvement. Dr. Billiot shares her expertise nationwide as a teacher of nutritional and energetic techniques.
Dr. Billiot graduated from Life University summa cum laude and was valedictorian of her class. Her certifications include CRA and Nutrition Response Testing, Systems Desensitization Technique (SDT) and N.A.E.T. allergy elimination techniques, Systems Balancing Technique (SBT) hormone balancing technique, JMT immune technique, several chiropractic adjusting techniques, with extensive further study in homeopathy, herbology, Chinese medicine, clinical nutrition and pain control using nutrition.
Soon after graduating from Life University, Dr. Billiot became frustrated with the lack of consistent results with chiropractic treatment for health issues beyond musculoskeletal conditions. She sought solutions for her patients other than drugs and surgery. Furthermore, she found herself fighting a serious health problem of her own. Her research for holistic and nutritional techniques began in earnest. As a result of this in-depth research, Dr. Billiot recovered her own health! She also made significant improvements in patient health results. Now, a decade and one-half later, Dr. Billiot has one of the most successful holistic practices in the country. She also trains other practitioners in clinical nutrition and other holistic techniques.
Beyond the office, Dr. Billiot loves spending time with her family, hiking in the North Georgia mountains, and traveling. Her favorite place on earth is Paris! She loves her three cats and her two dogs. Dr. Billiot loves to grow things! She is a certified Master Gardener and keeps her family fed with healthy vegetables from her two gardens. In addition to her farm-to-table produce, her yard has something blooming most of the year.

Olivia Watkins, N.D.
Dr. Olivia Watkins was born and raised in a small town located in Northeast Georgia where time moves slowly and family is everything.
She enjoys Latin dance, yoga, reading, and spending time at the spa, or in nature with her family. Her favorite musical genres are soul, funk, and jazz.
She would like to spend more time gardening this year, endeavor to learn a second language, and continue exploring different parts of the world.
Dr. Watkins’s upbringing, personal and familial challenges, and passion for connecting and empowering others led her to Naturopathic Medicine.
Her qualifications include a doctorate from the Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine and a post-doctoral residency in General Medicine and Women’s Health.
Dr Watkins has practiced in Arizona, and the Middle East before returning to her home state of Georgia. She is passionate about promoting health literacy, advocating for her patients, and providing compassionate care through connection.
Dr. Watkins feels most fulfilled when her patients thrive in health.

Danielle Barron, D.C.
Dr. Danielle Barron is a dedicated chiropractic physician with a deep passion for holistic healing. Her journey began at Murray State University, where she earned her Bachelor of Science in Agriculture while competing on the collegiate rodeo team. This early blend of academic excellence and athletic discipline laid the foundation for her commitment to health and performance. She went on to receive her Doctor of Chiropractic from Parker University, graduating as Salutatorian and Magna Cum Laude.
Dr. Barron began her career in East Tennessee, where she spent five years serving families in a wellness practice. Her compassionate care earned her the Reader’s Choice Award for “Best Chiropractor” two years in a row. As her passion for deeper healing grew, she began advanced studies in childhood developmental neurology, which opened the door to a broader understanding of brain-based health. She then pursued further training in functional neurology.
Dr. Barron is also board certified in animal chiropractic through the American Veterinary Chiropractic Association (AVCA), allowing her to extend her care to four-legged patients with the same dedication she brings to her human ones.
While Dr. Barron’s academic and professional journey is extensive, her path into functional medicine was also deeply personal. Inspired by health challenges within herself and her own family, she was driven to seek out comprehensive solutions—fueling her passion to help others reclaim their health and well-being.
Outside of her professional life, Dr. Barron enjoys spending time with her partner and their beloved Yorkie, Waylon. She finds joy in the outdoors, whether it’s traveling, hiking, or simply enjoying a quiet moment in the sunshine. She cherishes quality time spent with friends and family. Her love of both adventure and connection reflects the heart she brings to her work—where every patient is treated like family.

Norman Lowrey
Practice Manager
Norman has been the Practice Manager of Alternative Health Atlanta since 1998.
“What I most love about working at the clinic is watching the changes in our patients’ lives. It’s truly great that patients have less symptoms and more energy, but seeing them increase their engagement in and enjoyment of their lives is what most excites me.”
Norman has almost 40 years of experience in starting, operating, expanding, and consulting many different businesses. His first business, founded in 1983, was a professional-level bicycle shop that still dominates sales in a three-state area. Norman has also been a partner in a healthcare marketing firm and has worked as a consultant, reorganizing businesses ranging from heavy manufacturing, software, and engineering to construction and retail.
However, once he started working with Dr. Billiot and helping “impossible” cases to recover their health and lives, he was hooked! Norman has been developing systems, researching, and helping Dr. Billiot to develop the EvecticsSM system of health care since 1996. Norman has written books on Heart Rate Variability use in holistic practices and taught webinars on this subject. He has also developed practice management software specific to holistic practices.
Norman loves being outdoors, biking, hiking, and backpacking with his family.
