Meet Dr. Sanela Begovic
Lake St. Louis Clinic Director
Dr. Begovic always knew she wanted to be a doctor and help people. When she was on her way to medical school, her mom got into a car accident, and as a result, she was unable to move her neck and couldn’t work for 6 weeks.
All the medication that she got prescribed wasn’t working. A friend from school suggested I take her to a chiropractor. I had never heard about chiropractic, let alone been to a chiropractor before. I took my mom, and after the very first adjustment, she felt better and was back at work within the next two weeks.”
When Dr. Begovic saw the chiropractor adjust her mom and help her by using just his hands, she knew she wanted to help people just like he did.

A Passion for Helping Patients
Dr. Begovic believes that her purpose in life is to help people. “Being a chiropractor helps me do just that. Helping my patients live their best lives is what lights me up.” Hearing a patient say that they have been pain-free for the first time in years is truly heartwarming and makes Dr. Begovic’s day.
“I know that it’s a privilege that patients trust me with their health and their children’s health, and I don’t take it for granted. When you love what you do, you never have to work a day in your life, and I love what I do.”
In Her Spare Time
Dr. Begovic enjoys spending time with her two children, whom she considers her biggest blessings. Her daughter is in high school and plays volleyball for her school and a club team, while her son, a 5th grader, is active in soccer and volleyball. Dr. Begovic can often be found cheering them on at their games.
In her personal time, she also enjoys hiking and the outdoors, recharging by spending quality time with family and friends. Dr. Begovic loves experimenting with new recipes and eating! She’s also fluent in three languages—English, Bosnian, and German, bringing a unique multicultural perspective to her practice.
Fun fact: Dr. Begovic completed her first marathon in 2021, joining the less than 1% of people worldwide who have reached this impressive milestone.
