The chiropractic profession is under a sophisticated and relentless assault from corporate medicine, so strategically executed that most don’t even recognize it happening. The campaign is powerful, calculated, and well-funded, demonstrated by its covert tactics and the millions being invested to carry it out. Corporate medicine's endgame wants only two things from chiropractic: all our patients and all our money – and it is getting it.
| Digital ExclusiveOn-line with the Chiropractic Forum
Chiropractic is officially off and running on the high-tech information superhighway. Every Sunday, from 9-10 p.m. EST, over 250 DCs and other interested parties have been tuning into America On-Line's Chiropractic Professional Networking Forum, "Health and Medical Chat."
Like all cyberspace "chats," all you need to network with chiropractors across the country is a computer, a modem, and in this case, be a subscriber to America On-Line. The revolution in communication is here. Discussions with a wide variety of chiropractors is only a phone call away.
Chiropractors on the forum speak on a multitude of subjects, but have organized specific topics by popular vote. On April 9, for instance, clinical rounds (low back pain) were discussed.
Future Sunday discussions will feature:
- April 16 -- Headaches and Chiropractic
- April 23 -- Chiropractic Research: Where Do We Need to Go?
- April 30 -- Scripting Abilities (a possibility)
Bob Dubin, DC, who facilitates the forum, says the on-line Sunday chat gets better each week, as more people come on-line and users get more comfortable with the medium. David Brady, DC, is the co-facilitator of the discussions.
Please join the Chiropractic Professional Networking Forum, every Sunday, 9-10 p.m. EST, on AOL, in the "Health and Medical Chat" section.
See you there.
