Our Team
Dr. Rob Murray
Family Chiropractor
Dr. Rob Murray first became interested in chiropractic when it supported his athletic performance as a teenager and later improved his immunity and seasonal allergies. After completing his Bachelor of Biological Sciences degree at the University of Guelph, Dr. Rob continued his education at Palmer College of Chiropractic, the founding school of chiropractic. Attending Palmer College allowed Dr. Rob to specialize in a wide range of chiropractic techniques. He feels this is important because each patient is unique and requires a customized healthcare plan.
Dr. Rob is a Family Chiropractor in Newmarket, who utilizes gentle corrective chiropractic techniques to care for patients of all ages, from newborns to seniors. Murray Family Chiropractic uses state-of-the-art computer technology, on-site digital x-rays and a thorough physical examination and health history to diagnose and measure patient progress. One of Dr. Rob’s proudest achievements is creating 360 Health and co-founding the Extreme Health Makeover – York Region. These seminars have educated thousands of people in our community about how to live their healthiest life.
Dr. Rob opened his doors in 2002 and is an active member of the Ontario Chiropractic Association, the College of Chiropractors of Ontario, the Canadian Chiropractic Association and the Newmarket Chamber of Commerce. He strongly believes in giving back to our community, and supports a variety of local organizations including the Newmarket Food Pantry, Inn From The Cold, The Salvation Army, Rose of Sharon, The Women’s Centre of York Region and St. Vincent de Paul. He also supports foster children through Compassion Canada.
Murray Family Chiropractic is honoured to have received several awards for community service and business excellence including, the Chuck Cino Business Award, Top Choice Award Mark of Excellence, Three Best Rated for Best Chiropractor, and The Era Readers’ Choice Diamond Award for Best Chiropractor and Best Chiropractic Clinic in Newmarket.
