Things to do in Dothan
If you are new to the area, you will likely notice the historic murals painted along buildings in the downtown area and the painted peanuts welcoming you to hundreds of local businesses around the city. These unique touches lend southern charm and warmth to the area. It is obvious that history and hospitality are cornerstones of this community.
Along with a host of lodging, sports, and events, Dothan offers an emerging culinary scene with a large array of restaurants and dining experiences to choose from. Dothan is home to Top Chef winner Kelsey Barnard Clark, whose downtown restaurant KBC is a popular choice for locals, tourists, and foodies alike. Craft breweries, event venues such as the Plant for live music, and locally-owned businesses keep the city buzzing with life and excitement.
You will also want to take time to appreciate the history of Dothan while visiting sites such as the Dothan Opera House, the Carver Museum, or the Museum of Cultural Arts. Landmark Park is also a must-visit for a step back in time and a nod to the agricultural roots of Houston County.
Staying fit, healthy, and active is important, and the city of Dothan strives to make a lifestyle of wellness attainable for everyone. With numerous walking and biking trails, a change of scenery is always just a few short miles away.
Medical hub of the Southeast
In addition to the southern draw of a close-knit and friendly community, Dothan is also a premier medical hub. As the number of residents in the city and surrounding rural areas grows, so does the accessible patient base, making Dothan an attractive market for your practice home. With adjacency and close proximity to Florida and Georgia, the Wiregrass has become known as the medical hub of the Southeast and well-known for ease of access, quality care, and patient satisfaction. Doctors in Dothan also have a 31% higher average salary than the national average. These specific considerations make the Dothan location an excellent choice for physicians.
