Attorney Jennifer Herlihy joins hosts Paul Andrews and Dr. Mark Davini to discuss chiropractic malpractice and board defense. Topics include trial preparation and strategy, depositions, juror vetting, common board allegations (including stroke and inappropriate touching), the impact of social media and billboard marketing, and the rise of high-stakes catastrophic claims. Attorney Herlihy shares real-world stories from her 25+ years defending health professionals and emphasizes the role of expert witnesses and realistic expectations about outcomes.

Listeners will learn practical advice for clinicians: be proactive with documentation, compliance, and continuing education; never alter notes after a complaint; involve your malpractice carrier early; seek mental-health support when stressed; and avoid dating patients. Expect candid legal insights, tips to manage investigations, and takeaways to better protect your practice.

Join Paul Andrews and Dr. Mark Davini on All Things Chiropractic as they explore how to identify high‑quality continuing education for chiropractors. This episode covers why CE exists, how times (and techniques) are changing rapidly—post‑COVID and with AI—and what to look for when vetting courses and presenters.

Paul and Dr. Davini discuss the regulatory perspective, minimum safety standards, scope‑of‑practice issues, and the difference between content that merely awards hours versus content that changes practice. They share real examples (kinesiology, acupuncture, cupping), the value of in‑person learning, and the importance of including staff training like billing and coding.

Practical tips include checking presenter credentials and reviews, choosing topics that interest and will impact your clinic, knowing your state’s regulations before adopting techniques, and using CE to build confidence rather than just tick a box.

Expect actionable advice for new grads and seasoned doctors alike on selecting CE that’s meaningful, practice‑changing, and keeps you and your team current and competent.

Join hosts Paul Andrews and Dr. Mark Davini with special guest Dr. Heidi Haavik as they explore the latest science behind chiropractic care. Dr. Haavik, a chiropractor and PhD in human neurophysiology, explains how subluxations affect paraspinal muscles and brain function, why precise adjustments produce widespread changes, and how chiropractic care can influence sleep, blood pressure, digestion, tinnitus and more.

The episode covers research findings on muscle recruitment, neuroimmune markers, gene expression changes after care, and clinical trials that compare techniques and outcomes. Dr. Haavik discusses the importance of translating science into clear patient communication, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the role of platforms like Chiroshub.com in educating clinicians and patients.

Explore Dr. Haavik’s personal story, professional insights on technique versus art, the need for the profession to “own its science,” and upcoming masterclasses on chiropractic and the immune system. Expect practical takeaways for practitioners and patients about regular care, how adjustments can ‘wake up’ the brain, and the future direction of chiropractic research.

In this episode of All Things Chiropractic, hosts Paul Andrews and Dr. Mark Davini welcome special guests Dr. Christopher Proulx and Jacob Currier (MedCor) to discuss advanced clinical tools and an upcoming hands‑on workshop. The conversation covers Dr. Proulx’s journey into chiropractic care and how modern modalities complement traditional adjustments.

Dr. Proulx explains Shockwave therapy—how acoustic, high‑pressure sound waves stimulate healing, help resorb calcifications, support nerve and tissue regeneration, and aid chronic tendinopathies and other stubborn conditions. He also breaks down Class 4 (high‑power) laser therapy and photobiomodulation, describing how higher power and longer wavelengths enhance therapeutic effects.

Jacob Currier outlines the business and implementation side: MedCor’s consultative approach, the importance of hands‑on training and standardized protocols, staff roles (including properly trained assistants), marketing, and how these services create new revenue streams and improve patient retention. They emphasize overcoming adoption barriers and ensuring clinicians believe in and properly integrate new technologies.

Details: a full‑day workshop (6 CEUs) on March 13 at the Four Points Sheraton Norwood hosted by Tools of Practice with MedRay and MedCorp.

Key takeaways include scheduling patient-focused time, minimizing administrative burdens, communicating wins with staff, starting small to offload one distraction, and writing an action plan of the things you love versus the tasks to remove. Expect practical tips to reduce burnout and rebuild joy in your practice.
