We are proud to announce our new "California Forum." This will initially begin with four pages marked in green as you see on this page. The California Forum is a section only for those chiropractors and students in the state of California.
The California Forum has been established for two reasons:
In each area of the world, the chiropractic profession faces problems and concerns that are specific to that particular region. The California Forum will allow for the communication and discussion of those issues specifically of concern to the chiropractic profession in California.
There are over 49,000 DCs on the North American Continent. Of those, over 10,000 students and doctors of chiropractic reside in California. Ultimately, the California Forum will attempt to be a place where the concerns of chiropractors in this large state's various geographic areas can be expressed. Part of the California Forum will be utilized to provide news briefs and articles from societies and associations throughout the state.
We are very excited about our plans for our new California Forum. We feel that the Forum will help fulfill a need to better share and exchange new thoughts, experiences, and ideas of doctors and students in California.
"DC" believes that the Forum will help alleviate some of the communication barriers, often wrought by time constraints and geographical distances. It is our goal to transcend these barriers and to provide the doctors and students of our California region with a way to share information more directly. Perhaps you are a doctor who has experienced an interesting or unique case history. Or, perhaps you have something on your mind that you'd like to share with the other DCs in California.

Many relevant diagnostic signs are not performed deliberately by the examiner or by the patient at the examiner’s direction. They are observed as the patient reacts to their condition. Fortin’s finger sign, Minor’s sign, and Vanzetti’s sign are three examples of this principle.
On Feb. 1, 2024, two more legislators – John R. Carter (R-Texas) and Robert “Bob” Good (R-Va.) – co-sponsored the Chiropractic Medicare Coverage Modernization Act of 2023, bringing the co-sponsor total to 155, two more than the total achieved over the entire two-year congressional cycle in which identical legislation last appeared (2021-22).
While working at the Lovelace Medical Center in Albuquerque, N.M., one of the primary care physicians stated that imaging every patient prior to receiving chiropractic was not medically necessary. It was at that point I reconsidered the need for the imaging of every patient to avoid malpractice.
