Derby Family Chiropractic was founded by Stuart Rudd BSc (Hons) in late 2007 with a simple aim: to bring the unique and gentle McTimoney Chiropractic approach to Derby. Since then the clinic has grown from a single chiropractor into one of Derby's busiest family chiropractic practices.
In March 2014, Matthew Robbins joined Stuart to help meet increasing demand. Over the years the chiropractic team has continued to expand, with Megan Rowley, Natalie Beckett, Divyesh Patel and Mel Bower joining the practice. Matthew went on to establish his own successful clinic in 2025.
Today, Derby Family Chiropractic operates from two Derby clinics and has welcomed over 12,000 patients while delivering more than 190,000 appointments.
The clinic has also been recognised for its commitment to patient care, holding the prestigious Patient Partnership Quality Mark (PPQM) from the Royal College of Chiropractors continuously since 2012.
