The Oasis Family
Who We Are
Dr. Michael Samy
Medical Director
Well Hello there! My name is Michael Samy, I was born in the glorious (and expensive) state of New Jersey in late 1993 on a snow day, so out of the womb I came loving the cold. My parents originally immigrated from Egypt where they both were born therefore making me 100% Egyptian! We moved to Southern California when I became the ripe age of 5 years old. Growing up, I was always active in one sport or another. I've been in love with the healthcare field for as long as I can remember, enjoying mainly the fulfillment one gets treating the ailment of a suffering individual turning their hopelessness into joy! I attended California Baptist University majoring in Christian Theology with a focus in Philosophy while fulfilling the courses required for Chiropractic School. I am a Coptic Orthodox Christian and have a deep love for serving youth in the Church, so much so that I decided to pursue a Master's degree in Theological Studies for both personal enrichment and general knowledge. I then started my doctoral education at Southern California University of Health Sciences in Whittier, CA. I graduated with distinction in August 2023 and started working immediately that same October here in Nashville, TN. The following year I met my best friend, Mariam and now we are engaged to be married October 2025!
Dr. Rob Harward
Master Applied Kinesiologist
Dr Rob is a Chiropractor and Advanced Clinical Nutritionist at Oasis Health Center. He is certified in Applied Kinesiology and Nutrition Response Testing.
When I was growing up I couldn’t stand walking. If I was going any distance, I preferred to run. My parents complained that I was wearing out all my shoes. Between that and healthy eating, I was in great shape. But when I was 27 I threw out my back and I couldn’t walk. I knew a common solution was to take pain killers, but I wanted to do more than just cover up pain. I wanted real health. I went to a chiropractor and was walking after 2 visits. After the 3rd visit I was 100% back to health. This experience changed the course of my life. I attended Palmer Chiropractic College in Iowa and, after becoming a chiropractor, I learned my experience with healing was quite common. It was a joy to see my patients overcome spinal and other joint problems naturally.
Thais Haran
Partner/Office Manager
With a heart for service and a passion for natural wellness, Thais brings a unique background to her role as Office Manager at Oasis Health Center. Before stepping into the holistic health world, she worked as an educational interpreter for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing—an experience that deepened her desire to support families in meaningful, empowering ways.
A long time believer in holistic living, Thais was raised by a mom who prioritized natural healing and has chosen to raise her two young boys the same way. Now living in Spring Hill, she’s passionate about helping families experience the same freedom and vitality that first brought her to Oasis as a client.
Shelby Young
Receptionist
Shelby, born and raised in Pulaski, TN, was brought up by her grandparents and played a key role in helping raise her three younger siblings. From a young age, she embraced the values of responsibility, compassion, and leadership—qualities that continue to guide her today.
Before joining Oasis, Shelby worked at a Montessori daycare, where she discovered a deep passion for supporting children’s development in a caring and structured environment. Now, as a receptionist at Oasis, she brings that same dedication to her work every day.
Shelby was drawn to Oasis because of its mission to uplift and support families through challenging times. For her, Oasis isn’t just a workplace—it’s a community where she can make a lasting impact while continuing to grow both personally and professionally.
