No, it actually has to be bestowed by an accredited college of medicine, despite your lame jab. And if you had actually read my posts you would have seen that I frequently referred patients to chiropractors, when indicated. The message I was conveying is that
NO ONE SHOULD EVER see a chiropractor first, bad things can happen. Even your husband felt better(or should have) when treating a patient who had been diagnosed first. Look, sometimes chiropractic works, but chiropractors have neither the tools or education to diagnose medical problems--in fact I've never heard a "chiropractic diagnosis" that was anything other than "a subluxation of a vertebral body". It's not his fault, it's just that chiropractors don't do the same thing as medical doctors. Unfortunately, many in the public tend to conflate the two professions when they are no where even close to equal. And I don't think the chiropractic community is all that eager to dispel that myth either. Hence, you may consider my posts as a public service announcement.
