We have been very tolerant of the hostilities of outside vested interest groups who have often unfairly categorized us. Indeed, we have kept a critical eye on ourselves to better our profession. As far back as I can remember our leaders have urged chiropractors to financially support their colleges and research endeavors. We survive in these areas by our own efforts, unlike the medical schools. The NIH also gave hundreds of millions more to lesser medical colleges.
Chiropractors are responsible citizens.
Because our care doesn't cause iatrogenic reactions, we have the lowest malpractice insurance rates of health professionals in the world, based on independent actuarial studies. It is a magnificent 253 acre campus located in Seneca Falls, just west of Syracuse. It is just one of the many fine chiropractic colleges nationally accredited by the Council on Chiropractic Education under the United States Office of Education. Should you care to visit NYCC, you would be impressed with the classrooms, laboratories, research center, outpatient clinic, library, administrative building, dormitories, all furnished with the finest equipment available, and paid for by the chiropractic profession. You will be proud, even amazed, that our profession could build such a magnificent institution without government subsidization.
