TCC Fund Drive Surpasses $200,000

Dynamic Chiropractic Staff

Texas Chiropractic College's fund drive surpassed its goal of $200,000 by securing $201,335 in pledges with a hard working staff of 25 alumni and friends.

"I've never seen a more concentrated, dedicated, and unified effort of cooperation to obtain a monumental goal," said TCC President S.M. Elliott, D.C.

An offshoot of the fund-raising has been the emergence of the TCC Development Corps, an idea developed by board member Charles Albracht, D.C., and refined by Ken White, D.C., and Billie Duncan, TCC's chief development officer. Dr. Albracht explained: "After being on the board for a short time, I found that there wasn't a consistent base of giving to TCC. There are so many people out there who have reaped the benefits of being a chiropractor and having graduated from TCC but have never been approached to give large amounts of money..."

The Development Corps currently has 20 members. A full member contributes $5,000 a year; an associate member $2,500.

When Radiculopathy Isn't Radiculopathy: A Clinical Series (Pt. 1)
hen Radiculopathy Isn’t Radiculopathy: A Clinical Series

Radicular-like pain of the upper and lower extremities is among the most common presentations in musculoskeletal and spine-related practice. Traditionally, these symptoms are interpreted through a disc-centric and dermatomal framework, often leading clinicians to attribute limb pain, paresthesia or perceived weakness to spinal nerve-root pathology. While this approach is appropriate in cases of true radiculopathy, it frequently falls short when symptoms fail to follow consistent dermatomal patterns or correlate poorly with imaging findings.

Chronic Sciatica: Ending the Relapse Cycle
Chronic Sciatica: Ending the Relapse Cycle

A 46-year-old male presented to our clinic with a seven-year history of recurrent low back pain with sciatica. He reported stiffness and discomfort that worsened with prolonged sitting both at his desk job and during evening television time. The patient had seen multiple chiropractors over the years. In every case, spinal manipulation and other passive treatments would bring gradual symptom relief over 2-3 months. However, within another 3-6 months, the symptoms would return. Frustrated – and now considering a spinal injection and possibly surgery if that failed, he came to our office seeking a different approach.
