The Emirates Chiropractic Association has a fascinating journey that began in 2008 when a group of chiropractors — Dr. Travis Mitchell, Dr. Ahmed Fares, Dr. Salim Khamissa, Dr. Tarik Tawil, Dr. Gary Fitzgerald, and Dr. Mohamad Raslan — met at Central Perk Coffee Shop in Dubai and decided to establish the association. Dr. Gary Fitzgerald proposed the name "Emirates Chiropractic Association" (ECA), which has been its identity ever since.
Dr. Travis Mitchell served as the first President of the association. In 2009, the leadership transitioned, with Travis becoming Vice President, Dr. Charles Jones assuming the Presidency, and Dr. Pamela Leader taking on the role of Treasurer.
From 2010 to 2012, significant changes reshaped the association. Dr. Travis left the country, and Dr. Charles drafted the first by-laws before stepping down, creating a leadership gap. Dr. Pamela Leader stepped into the role of President, with Dr. Vanda Corbett becoming Secretary, and Dr. Mohamad Raslan assuming the Vice Presidency, marking a pivotal moment in the association’s history.
In 2012, Dr. Mohamad Raslan took over as President, Dr. Pamela Leader remained as Treasurer, Dr. Niveen El Saleh became Secretary, and Dr. Vanda Corbett transitioned to Vice President. Under this leadership, the ECA continued to grow and advocate for chiropractors' rights, including retaining the "Doctor" title, solidifying its role as a unifying force for the chiropractic profession in the UAE.
