About Me
Dr. Robert White, D.C.
Hi, I’m Dr. Robert White, a functional medicine practitioner and chiropractor based in New Jersey. I was born and raised in Florham Park, NJ, and my journey into holistic and functional healthcare began after a personal health experience changed the way I viewed healing. Seeing firsthand how root-cause, natural care could succeed where conventional approaches had failed inspired me to pursue a career focused on helping others restore their health from the inside out.
My focus is on treating the whole person, not just symptoms, by identifying underlying imbalances and supporting the body’s natural ability to heal. Whether you’re managing chronic conditions or looking to improve your overall health and function, I’m here to guide and support you through a personalized, thoughtful approach to care.

Biography
My journey into health and wellness took a meaningful turn in my mid-twenties after an alternative health approach resolved painful, persistent ear infections I had struggled with throughout childhood—something conventional medicine had been unable to address. This experience reshaped my understanding of health and sparked a deep interest in holistic and functional care.
Before entering healthcare, I earned a degree in Mechanical Engineering from NJIT and operated a successful landscaping business. Inspired to help others the way I had been helped, I sold my business and returned to school to pursue chiropractic and functional medicine.
My interest in advanced nutrition and functional medicine grew further while helping my mother address severe blood sugar imbalances naturally, preventing the progression to diabetes. This experience reinforced my commitment to identifying root causes through whole-food nutrition, functional testing, and personalized care.
“I feel incredibly fortunate to help people function better and increase their body’s self-healing potential without relying on prescription medications or unnecessary surgery.”
Outside of practice, I enjoy working out, reading, playing hockey, grilling for friends and family, and spending time with my wife, Maria, and our two cats, Luke and Leia.
