In this economy, earning specialty diplomate
status can be harder than ever with
expenses for travel and time out of the
office taken into consideration. Palmer
College is looking for solutions for our
doctors in the field to continue lifelong
learning endeavors. You can now earn
eligibility to sit for the examination for
the Diplomate in Chiropractic
Orthopedics in less than two years and
enjoy the status and recognition you’ll
receive as an orthopedics specialist.
Palmer’s program features a new
live/online hybrid structure that
allows learners to earn their specialty
in less time, and with less expense.
“Our price of only $6,995 for the full
program, coupled with the fact that
doctors are travelling only half the time
of a standard diplomate, makes investing
in yourself and your practice an easy
luxury,” stated Senior Director of Continuing
Education Laurie Mueller, D.C.,
Davenport ’97.
Palmer’s new program features 17 live
weekends and an online/self-study component.
“Our programming also has
been redesigned with a hard focus on
clinical relevance,” she added. “Each live
module is fully integrative and incorporates
appropriate topics in physical
examination, chiropractic-orthopedicneurologic
assessment, imaging, diagnostics,
labs, nutrition, biomechanics and
case management.”
Program participants can expect to
analyze specific case studies and take
an algorithmic approach to differential
diagnosis that will prepare them to
sit for the examination to earn Diplomate
of the Academy of Chiropractic
Orthopedics status. The program will
begin Sept. 26-27, 2009, on the Davenport
Campus. Visit www.palmer.edu/
