“A chiropractic career can consist of so many different paths from working in hospitals, to performance coaching for athletes, to teaching, to research, to owning a private practice. I would encourage potential students to learn and explore all the opportunities within the chiropractic profession to better understand where their passion lies.”
Dr. Butler is looking forward to providing clinical care and is eagerly anticipating the “exposure to other providers in rotations such as through neurosurgery, orthopedic surgery, physical medicine, rehabilitation, radiology, and even the emergency department.”
Wren Burton, D.C. (West, ’20) was recently selected as the first chiropractic research fellow at the Osher Center for Integrative Medicine, Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women’s Hospital. This fellowship aims to advance chiropractic research through cultivating and mentoring in a three-year postdoctoral program that’s focused on the development of research skills to support a career as an independent researcher in clinical musculoskeletal health or pain-management research.
Living in constant pain drove Jason to the palmer Florida Clinics, where he’s spent the past two years under the care of Meredith Meyers, D.C. (Florida, ’07), or as he calls her, Doc Meyers.
Dr. Meyers has seen Jason both at high and low points in his care. It was at those low points that Jason was glad he could go see Doc Meyers. “When I’ve come in during my bad episodes, she’s been there to help. I’ve come in here pretty much crawling, and after my adjustments, I’m literally able to walk out with little to no pain. I thank her every chance I can for that.”
Felisha Truong, D.C. (West, ’19) always knew she wanted to pursue a degree in health care. Chronic pain resulting from a gymnastics injury in her early teens led her to chiropractic, and her love for research led her to Palmer.
