CLINICAL SYMPOSIUM CONCLUSION



Back to Events Page

The Clinical Symposium

The Clinical Symposium is the annual event which offers an open forum for sharing with other allied health professionals. This interdisciplinary format provides an incredible opportunity for learning, sharing, and even working together, which is frequently the key to offering our patients the finest in care.  Your participation in the symposium places you in the company of the finest doctors and health care providers that have a willingness to see beyond the walls of their office or the constraints of insurance companies, to the future of health care.

You will find three tracks with over 50 hours of lectures from which to choose.  Many of the lectures have roots in Chiropractic and Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT) Cranial; however, there are other lectures from other professionals within and outside the health care profession that have valuable information for you, your patients, and your practice.
