In a professional building on Normal Park Dr. in Huntsville, Texas—if you make your way up to the second floor and walk down to suite 201—behind the door, you will find staff and doctors who merge both chiropractic and medical practices to help bring patients the best quality of life possible. Dr. Brian McGee stands proud with continuing the legacy of Dr. Gregory Peter, who owned the practice for over 40 years. Having kept the name, staff, and patients in place, these doctors look ahead to a bright future of caring for people in our communities.
Upon arrival of the Huntsville Physical Medicine Institute office, you will find a play area for children, friendly staff waiting to greet you and assist you with appointment scheduling, and a sitting area where encouraging words adorn the walls.
“The greatest medicine is to teach people how not to need it.” This quote can be seen by patients right when they walk through the door, as it is posted on the wall by the front desk. This quote is from “Hippocratic School of Medicine” and after speaking with Dr. McGee, there is no doubt this is the motto they are doing business by.
After 43 years of providing care and building relationships with patients, Dr. Greg Peter passed the torch two years ago. Dr. Brian McGee is now the friendly face patients have grown to know. “We have an integrated approach. Our foundation is chiropractic. We also have a medical provider on our staff, Dr Blain. We have merged the best of both worlds, where we have chiropractic and modern medicine, so our medical provider does things that complement,” explains Dr. McGee. The legacy to continue is this, says McGee, “Getting rid of back pain, joint pain, neuropathy in a unique way – no medicine, no surgery, just results.”
As Huntsville has seen before, when a doctor retires, it can sometimes shake up the community a bit, leaving patients unsure of what path they will take with their future care. That does not seem to be the case here, as Dr. McGee feels thankful to his patients for welcoming him with open arms.
“It’s an honor to be able to take care of the community. From TDCJ workers, to university students and faculty, Elkins Lake golfers…a lot of them come on a weekly basis. It has created an atmosphere of “family,” and I want to thank them for accepting me,” Dr. McGee continues with a smile of gratitude.
“I definitely take it as a compliment that patients have stayed through the transition.” Dr. McGee attributes the warm environment in the office to his team. “That’s a credit to the staff, that it is a family atmosphere; the staff get told on a daily basis how awesome they are, and they really are.”
Who Can Huntsville Physical Medicine help? Well…most likely you or someone you know.
Bulging or Herniated Discs? Sciatica? Migraines? Pinched Nerve? Tech Neck?
If you are experiencing symptoms, Huntsville Physical Medicine Institute would like to help you get on the road to recovery.
Dr. McGee says, “When you have a symptom, you have a problem. Symptoms are the last thing to show up, and typically the last thing to go away.”
This is why many patients choose Huntsville Physical Medicine Institute for preventative reasons.
“Symptoms are your body’s alarm system saying something is not right,” explains Dr. McGee. “Chiropractic is a lifestyle; the majority of my patients come in to get tweaked, to make sure the nervous system is working the best it can. The nervous system controls everything – without that, we don’t work.”
Huntsville Physical Medicine Institute wants you know: You are never too old to set a new goal.
The old saying “age is just a number” is highlighted here because, from newborns to great-grandparents, Huntsville Physical Medicine Institute sees them all.
The birthing process can be taxing on both mother and baby, which may result in both benefiting from adjustments. It is not uncommon for HPMI to be a pit stop for newborn babies on the way home from the hospital.
As life continues for the child, they may start taking tumbles…or your grandfather may fall on the golf course. Misalignments happen to all ages, and HPMI wants to be there to serve your family.
Dr. McGee says the goal of HPMI is to “help people get back to doing the things they enjoy doing in life, without pain.” He also makes it clear he wants his patients to continue with great quality of life no matter what the age, and that “the answer should never be to give up what you love doing.”
When asked what his hopes and plans are for the future, Dr. McGee had this to say: “We want to continue to do more regenerative medicine. That’s going to be important. I think that’s the wave of the future, instead of people having to become reliant on drugs and surgery. Something we strive for is to be on the cutting edge of new technologies that can help our patients without using drugs and surgery.”
With shock wave therapy, decompression tables, in-house x-rays, and numerous adjustment tables available, the HPMI team is prepared and ready for a bright future of caring for Huntsville and area residents.
If you’d like to start your journey at Huntsville Physical Medicine Institute, schedule your assessment, and set goals for your wellness, Dr. McGee and his staff would love to talk to you today.

“While other professions are concerned with changing the environment to suit the weakened body, chiropractic is concerned with strengthening the body to suit the environment.”
