Q:

Here's a question for you. What if you think that
trying to get your own practice up and running is not
for you? Then what are your options? After all, we
have a lot of knowledge. There must be other options
for those of us without the stamina and the money to
get one going from scratch. Perhaps you think this is an idle 
question; it is not. There are many D.C.'s who are talking about this 
and many are going back to old professions. I think they
still have  options within the chiro realm. What do
you think?

A:

Thanks for the e-mail. Unfortunately there is never a right answer 
for a wrong question. Rather than offering advice to change course 
after all your years of college and present skills .. I¼d rather re-
orient your present position towards the goals you set while going 
to chiropractic school. Can you find happiness and success on the 
perimeter of chiropractic .. I imagine you can .. teaching .. being an 
associate or exam doctor .. marketing for a DC or DC¼s .. or joining 
some healthcare group as a chiropractic member. The rest is left to 
your imagination.

So .. to continue where I opened .. there is never a right answer for a 
wrong question .. I¼d rather like to read why you find it difficult to get 
started .. what you have done since graduation (pro and con) where you 
feel you have your strengths and where you feel you got screwed from 
others or circumstances .. and what if anything made you lose your 
stamina. This is not a critical reply .. just trying to possibly help you right 
he course.

If hope I gave you some advice .. possibly not what you wanted to hear .. 
but spend a few moments answering my questions above so I can assist you 
further

Have a Great Day
