Description:
Choosing a career as a doctor of chiropractic is an important decision.
Choosing which college to attend is even more critical. National University
of Health Sciences adheres to the same basic principles of chiropractic as
other schools but we go much further. Our students are not just trained as
"back doctors" but as first-contact primary care physicians who emphasize
more natural, non-invasive methods of healing whenever possible. Because of
this primary care responsibility, our science-based curriculum strongly
emphasizes patient examination and diagnosis along with manipulation of the
spine and the extremities. To teach these skills, we have adapted an
innovative problem-based learning format as a stronger and more clinically
relevant academic experience than traditional methods. National also
emphasizes interpersonal skills with an in-depth practice management
program, so by the time you graduate you will have acquired the necessary
clinical and business skills to begin your practice as a successful
chiropractic physician.
