Dr. Judith Hatch was born in Montgomery, Alabama and grew up in Atlanta, Georgia. Her father got her interested in Chiropractic. He was studying in Colorado and suffered from migraine headaches, and after his 3rd adjustment from the chiropractor, he stated he never had another migraine. That was 1958.

Dr. Hatch received her first chiropractic adjustment at age 13 in the chiropractic clinic located in a trailer in downtown Atlanta owned by Life College, now Life University. Her father was on the Board of Trustees at Life College for 16 years.

Dr. Hatch graduated from Bennett College for Women in Greensboro, North Carolina with a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with a concentration in Biology and Spanish. After graduation, she taught middle grades biology and earth science until she was ready to take the plunge into Chiropractic in 1985. There were only 12 women in her class, which at the time was the highest number of women enrolled in the history of the College. A natural leader, Dr. was elected as the first Black person (and 2nd woman) to be President of the Student Government Association. She further served in every capacity of the Student Government except Vice President.

During her matriculation, she was chosen as a delegate to the World Congress of Chiropractic Students that convened in Melbourne, Australia. While there, she travelled to Sydney for the World Celebration of the 100th Anniversary of the Founding of Chiropractic. Dr. Hatch graduated Life Chiropractic College in 1989. After several years of successful practice in the Atlanta area, she moved to Southwest Georgia to educate the community to the needs of spinal alignment, spinal maintenance and spinal hygiene. As a ‘person of color’, she noted there were no ‘persons of color’ educating the public about Chiropractic. Her mission was born. In 2002, she moved to Albany, Georgia as the first Black chiropractor in the 200-mile region.
