We Need A Paradigm Shift

As an evidence-informed chiropractor, it is way past due that we have a paradigm shift. We need a shift from starving artists to thriving chiropractors. We need a shift from busy and broke to time-free and cash confident. 

 

In this episode, I also detail the paradigm shifts we need in 11 areas where evidence-informed chiropractors tend to have hang-ups that negatively impact the patient experience, patient outcomes, and your quality of life. 

 

We discuss how the other side of our profession has historically gone too far one way and how we have gone too far the other way. 

 

The 11 hang-ups we need a shift in are: 

  • Report of Findings

  • Treatment Plans

  • Patient Adherence

  • “Maintenance Care”

  • The Patient Experience

  • Community Outreach

  • Building a Team

  • Personal Development

  • Learning Business

  • Marketing

  • Practice Management

 

I have the pleasure of talking with many thriving, ethical and evidence-informed chiropractors and they have not overcompensated away from the other side of our profession.
