Dr. Bob Moulas on Chiropractic Misconceptions Part I

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.”

  1. Dr. Bob,

    That is a hidden fact in today's medical field! I was under the impression that chiropractors had a shorter period of study.

    Even though most doctors have an extensive knowledge....most are not aware of the benefits of the alignment of the bones. Isn't there a type of doctor that aligns bones also?

    Thanks

  2. Very Impressive. I had no idea they went to school that long. How long is the internship?
