This review is from: The Business of Chiropractic: How to Prosper After Startup (2nd Edition) (Paperback)

I often shake my head in disbelief to think that many of my fellow chiropractors will shell out thousands of dollars in practice management seminars when a book such as this exists for a fraction of the cost, and in truth, is much better.

Ivan Delman has managed to take important universal truths of business success and apply it to chiropractic in a simple but powerful way. Passion, wisdom, humor, and compassion are the hallmarks of his writing style that walks you through essential steps in creating the practice of your dreams.

Just as in chiropractic we tell our patients to please try chiropractic first before doing expensive, needless surgery, I suggest that D.C.'s read this gem of a book first before attending an expensive seminar.

You won't be sorry.

This review is from: The Business of Chiropractic: How to Prosper After Startup (2nd Edition) (Paperback)

I purchased the 1st edition of this book while still in chiropractic college and the 2nd edition when it came out shortly after my graduation. It presents excellent ideas and concepts for managing your practice succesfully. Much more informative and useful than any chiro business class while in school. It is an easy read. I highly recommend it!

This review is from: The Business of Chiropractic: How to Prosper After Startup (2nd Edition) (Paperback)

This is an excellent reference for medical practitioners of all disciplines as well as Chiropractic. It gives business guidance that is not taught in medical schools. I wish I had known some of these things when I started in medical practice in 1976. Dr. Delman speaks from experience and is a source of inspiration.
Using Dr. Delman's book should make business success much easier than going by trial and error.
