After receiving his Doctorate of Chi-
ropractic, Dr. Paul Graves opened Graves
Family Chiropractic of Frisco in 1998. “I
chose this profession after experiencing
the miracle of chiropractic firsthand with
my own injury. After suffering for three
years, trying the traditional medical ap-
proach, I tried chiropractic and three years
of excruciating pain was gone! Chiroprac-
tic gave me my life back and I was finally
able to do the things I love again. My mis-
sion is to do the same for others.” Dr. Graves
and his team of doctors work closely with
entire families, from infants to seniors and
numerous school and professional athletes.

Our primary focus is finding the under-
lying cause of your pain and recommend-
ing only what you need. We will provide
exceptional care, with a goal to wildly
exceed your expectations. Using only the
most scientific and advanced techniques
available for our patients, we will walk you
through every step of the way, without any
surprises. Leave your pain in the past, run
farther, jump higher, hold your grandchil-
dren longer, feel better and enjoy your life.
We are passionate about helping you meet
your goals and be the best version of your-
self possible.

There are many great reviews on Google,
Yelp and Facebook. One patient shares, “I
love everything about this clinic and the
people who work there! They are beyond
kind and knowledgeable, and they take the
extra time to make sure I am strengthening
my body to not re-injure myself. They even
helped my 18-month-old son and improved
his sleep!”

wellness center in the Dallas-Fort Worth
area and is a highly regarded proponent of

Opening on March 1, 2017, his clinic
immediately employed IV ketamine
infusion (IVKI), treating patients with

ation, other mood disorders and chronic

SEAN HILL

M.D.

LONE STAR
PLASTIC SURGERY

Dr. Sean Hill, a double board-certified
plastic surgeon, provides exceptional
outcomes through both plastic surgery
and nonsurgical treatments. He has been
selected to the prestigious Aesthetic Soci-
ety and is a fellow of the American Col-
lege of Surgeons. He strives to make every
patient he serves feel supported, confi-
dent about their safety and results and
happy to be in his clinic.

We know plastic surgery is a personal
decision, and we work with every patient
to develop an individualized plan –  no
cookie-cutter operations. We work to-
ward a concierge feel to our office. If
a patient reaches out to our office in
the middle of the night, they will get
Dr. Hill, not an answering service.

Dr. Hill grew up in an artistic family,
and his father worked as an engineer. That
unique perspective is valuable because a
good plastic surgeon needs more than just
an eye for aesthetics. “Great plastic surgery
involves the perfect mixture of art and
science,” he says. “During an operation, a
single millimeter can make the difference
between a good and great result.”

Dr. Hill has been on multiple medical
mission trips and continues to educate
the public on all types of plastic surgery
through public speaking engagements.
