Chiro-Serve Exits the Internet

Dynamic Chiropractic Staff

Chiro-Serve, owned by the P.O.I.N.T. Corp., turned off its lines on August 17th, ending its chiropractic information Internet service to focus on its business interests in the field of oncology.

Dennis Callahan, CEO of the P.O.I.N.T. Corp., explained the decision: "During our two-year relationship with chiropractic, many leaders have stepped forward and have been active participants in leading the way, however, too few have followed."

Chiro-Serve's departure leaves two chiropractic Internet services standing:

  • Chirolink, Dr. John Miller (408) 356-8708

     

  • CHIROLARS, Dr. Ronald Rupert (817) 898-0234

In the official statement from Chiro-Serve, Mr. Callahan thanked the leadership of the chiropractic colleges and state and national organizations who used the service, and who actively encouraged alumni and members to participate.

Should You Use Cash, Loan or Lease for Equipment Purchases?
Should You Use Cash, Loan or Lease for Equipment Purchases?

Some doctors thrive in a personality-based clinic and have a loyal following no matter what services or equipment they offer, but for most chiropractic offices who are trying to grow and expand, new equipment purchases help us stay relevant and continue to service our client base in the best, most up-to-date manner possible. So, regarding equipment purchasing: should you lease, get a bank loan, or pay cash?

Chiropractic at Risk Globally
Chiropractic at Risk Globally

There has long been an attempt by those who are not legitimate doctors of chiropractic to usurp the title of chiropractor from those who have earned their degree from an accredited chiropractic program. This generally happens in countries where the local doctors of chiropractic have yet to pass legislation requiring a degree from an accredited institution. The result is essentially two chiropractic professions. Nowhere is this danger more pronounced than in Japan.
