Hypocrisy in Chiropractic Education

A deep dive into the dirty secrets of the profession

Podcast Episode Summary: Deep Dive: Transparency and Ethics in Chiropractic Education

In this episode of Deep Dive, we tackle a critical investigation into the Council on Chiropractic Education (CCE) and its governance practices, inspired by a recent exposé from The Chiropractic Chronicle. The episode unpacks allegations of censorship, a lack of transparency, and monopolistic stakeholder engagement at the CCE’s annual business meeting. Listeners will learn how the organization’s actions, including abruptly halting press recordings and limiting public participation, conflict with its stated commitment to openness.

We explore the CCE’s connections to influential groups like the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners (NBCE) and the secretive Chiropractic Summit Group, raising concerns about exclusivity and conflicts of interest. The episode also examines the growing wave of Borrower’s Defense claims by chiropractic students, who allege aggressive recruitment practices and misrepresentation by schools and accrediting bodies.

Join us as we break down the article’s call for reform, urging stakeholders to demand greater accountability, ethical governance, and transparency in chiropractic accreditation. This is a must-listen for anyone invested in the future of chiropractic education and its impact on the profession.
