Doctors of Chiropractic make up the second largest health care profession in the United States. They have the title of “doctor” along with medical doctors and dentists.
The educational background for chiropractors is similar to that of an M.D. Chiropractors have pre-chiropractic studies at colleges before being admitted into Chiropractic College. In chiropractic college, the length of study is 5 years, which is concluded with a clinical internship.
Chiropractors must pass state and national board examinations, where they earn the title “Doctor of Chiropractic.”

ReplyDeleteHi Pete,
ReplyDeleteChiropractors and medical doctors spend about 8 years in college. M.D's spend more time studying drugs, while the chiros are more focused on anatomy and physiology of the body.
Thanks,

I would much rather go to a Chiropractor then a M.D.
ReplyDeleteWhen I go to my Chiropractor I get instant relief and when I go to my M.D. I get a prescription to mask the pain not take the pain away!
Candy,
