I absolutely love my chiropractor! I drive about 45 min. to see him as apparently do quite a few other people. He is extremely knowledgeable and keeps himself current on all facets of healthcare. I've been going to him about 20 years now. I value him over my internist.
That being said.. If I were you, I would find a good Dr. or someone currently in that area of the medical field and try to find out how obamacare is affecting the field or how it WILL be affecting it. There is just sooo much info that was in the bill that we are unaware of.
Being that you do not wholeheartedly buy into allopathic medicine, I don't see how you could be content practicing it.
On the other hand, my younger sister started out being a nurse and now she is supervisor of all the coumadin clinics.
If I were younger I would think about being a naturopathic Dr. But there again.. this world is changing so fast due to current powers that be.. I don't envy your having to make a decision. Hope you're a Christian and can pray for guidance. I wish you the very best!
Quoting: Angelic_Warrior I am actually considering naturopathic medicine as well but I would have to take an extra year of undergraduate work to apply. The ND programs require a BS degree unlike Chiropractic or Medical school. I was really shocked when I found this out! From what I have read I think that Obamacare will have a negative impact on most chiros who are in it for the money. The reimbursment rate is about half of what less expensive chiros charge. So if all chiros had to accept the insurance those who are in it for the money would take a giant loss! However there is soon to be acceptance of chiros into all VA hospitals and outpatient clinics so it will increase the amount of entry level positions which isn't going to get anyone rich but will create a demand for more chiros over the next few years.
