It has never been more exciting to be a chiropractor. I know there are challenges, and I would be remiss to not acknowledge that. However, doors are opening to us never before seen and today’s podcast spotlights such a new opening. 

In this interview with Dr. Joshua Cole discusses how his chiropractic practice has merged with a large hospital system in his town. Dr. Cole built a successful practice and when the opportunity knocked, he took it and is excited how it is going to date. 

There are many different types of opportunities such as merging, acquisition, and jobs with hospitals, VA, and corporations. We spotlight what that looks like and how you can take advantage of this new arena. 

In this episode we will discuss the following topics:
