That was my initial thought. But apparently they do have some medical training.
Still, it makes zero sense to have a Chiropractor medically certify a driver.
D.O.T. physical is a joke!!!!

My chiropractor is also an MD, perhaps that one is too?
stwik Thanks this. -
Decided to go for the easy money? Most Chiropractors go through a one year course. Less training than nurses. They're a lot more likely to seriously injure their patients than actual doctors. Not to mention there's no evidence to show their treatments any more effective than simple massage.Trucking in Tennessee Thanks this.

they're also doctors.. they can pretty much take the class for certification but some people had theirs revoked for not proper doing the physical...
some chiropractors will fail you and say you need a sleep test... -
Most chiropractors are MD’s! And know the Human anatomy better than than any other dr they get a bad rap because they don’t believe in medication. People just want drugs that’s why most don’t like them
stillwurkin, Mototom and Trucker Kev Paid Tourist Thank this. -
For your information a pcp told me I had a bone spur in my neck and needed surgery! I went to a chiropractor for several weeks of alignments and I’m good as new! It was just poor posture sitting in the seat that caused my neck to get crooked and pinch a nerve! So yes they do know what there doing and most are legitstillwurkin and Trucker Kev Paid Tourist Thank this.

Are you aware that Chiropractic "Medicine" was founded by a guy who says he learned of it from a ghost during a seance?Trucker61016 Thanks this.

I don’t know about that! But chiropractors can and do help with pain and probaly could have kept a lot of people off opioids if given a chance. What if 8 would have just went with pcp and got surgery and did not at all need it
Trucker61016 Thanks this. -
I think it's for like hearing sirens and train horns.
