Meet, Dr. Matthew Arthaud D.C., RN

With credentials as both a Doctor of Chiropractic and a Registered Nurse, Dr. Matthew Arthaud offers a rare, whole-body perspective on healing. Although he wasn’t born in Missouri, he grew up here and proudly serves the community he now calls home. His healthcare career started back in 2005, working in nursing positions that laid the groundwork for his people-first approach. In 2018 he formalized his experience by becoming a Registered Nurse, then elevated his holistic skill set with a chiropractic doctorate from Logan University.
