July signals the start of Dynamic Chiropractic's fifth annual ChiroMaster Award contest for the best individual chiropractic sites on the Web. First held in 1998, DC created the ChiroMaster Award to recognize doctors of chiropractic who had put the time and energy to create useful, comprehensive Web sites for their practices. Our goal then, as now, was to help motivate DCs to design their own sites, and to further the public's knowledge about chiropractic.
Based on those objectives, we feel the ChiroMaster awards have been a success. On July 1, DC will begin accepting submissions for this year's contest. As in previous years, there will be no limit to the number of sites that can receive the ChiroMaster Award. All sites will be reviewed by a Web-site committee, which will present the award to sites the committee considers educational, exceptional and easy to navigate. Sites that win the ChiroMaster will be featured in an upcoming issue of Dynamic Chiropractic.
In addition to the aforementioned criteria, sites will be judged on chiropractic and technical value, including (but not limited to):

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?
