Chiropractic discrimination in continuing education class heard at Providence.

[Guest guest]

Colleagues,

I recently signed up for a class held at Providence. A soft tissue technique

that I have always wanted to learn more about. Im not going to post which one as

I do believe this particular group can choose which professionals they want to

teach to and which ones they do not.

I would, however, like to contact Providence just to let them know there is a

class held in their facilities that discriminates against DCs. Any idea who I

may contact?

I was told that the class is on to MDs, DOs, PTs and OTs. Another class held

that weekend that I was also interested in is also open to clinical

psychologists.... Not DCs. I think it's unethical to restrict a fully licensed

(by the state of Oregon) profession with a particular skill set well within our

scope and knowledge in every state we practice, from taking a particular course.

I wonder how providence feels about it?
