Dr. Robyn L. Purdum, Chiropractic — a career built on the Success Standard: high-certainty correction over temporary relief.

Dr. Robyn Purdum, D.C.
Experience & Excellence

A career devoted to true structural correction.

Dr. Robyn L. Purdum, Chiropractor, brings more than three decades of clinical expertise to her practice. Throughout her distinguished career, she has remained committed to the “Success Standard” — a clinical approach that prioritizes high-certainty spinal adjustments and true structural correction over temporary symptomatic relief.

At the heart of her practice is the ADIO (Above–Down–Inside–Out) philosophy: true health begins with a properly functioning nervous system, clear of interference. Her goal is not just to manage pain, but to restore the body’s innate ability to heal itself through precise, principled chiropractic care.

Her Work in the Community

Expertise Earned on the Ground, Not in a Textbook

Mining & Industrial Health

Having served the Clifton and Morenci communities extensively, Dr. Purdum has developed a deep understanding of the stressors facing industrial and mining professionals. In the last three years alone, she has managed over 15,000 patient interactions, with a specialized focus on the Freeport-McMoRan (FMI) workforce.

Protocols Built for the Job

She has pioneered specific protocols for whole-body vibration (WBV) mitigation for haul truck operators, and repetitive loading recovery for drill and shovel operators — care designed around the real physical demands of mine work.

Serving Those Who Served

Dr. Purdum is proud to serve those who served; she is the contracted chiropractor for the VA for Greenlee and Graham counties, providing essential care to the local veteran population.

Innovation at Mount Graham & Clifton Chiropractic

As the lead clinician for Mount Graham Chiropractic (MGC) and Clifton Chiropractic, Dr. Purdum integrates her decades of wisdom with modern technology. Utilizing the latest EHR systems and digital intake protocols, she ensures that every patient’s journey is streamlined, secure, and focused entirely on the clinical outcome.

Life Beyond the Clinic

The Same Precision, On and Off the Clock

When she isn’t in the office working toward a “Success Standard” for her patients, Robyn is a dedicated outdoor enthusiast. You can often find her hiking local trails, fishing, studying wildlife, or enjoying various water sports. A regular at the Morenci climbing wall, she enjoys the challenge of indoor rock climbing to stay active.

For quieter moments, she is an avid quilter — bringing the same precision and care to her textile art that she does to her clinical practice.

“Whether it’s a spine or a quilt block, precision isn’t optional — it’s the whole point.”
