| I had been a licensed health care professional for 15 years, before I had decided to enter the professional Doctor of Chiropractic Medicine Programm at NUHS. |
| Suggestions |
| If you would like to graduate as a chiropractic physician, who is capable of working as a first-contact physician in your own practice and also be an equal partner to medical and osteopathic doctors in terms of disscusing different patient cases, go to National university. However, be prepared to study very hard for about 4 years. |
| Overall Opinion |
| Great guided discovery curriculum, strict program, preparing the highest competency doctors of chiropractic medicine, who may be able to work in the hospital setting as well as in independent clinics. |

| After attending CCOM, D.O. school, NCC made that look like high school. Very thorough and complete school. This school is not for the weak minded, it is extremely difficult, demanding and rewarding. It makes you an internal medicine primary care physician that practices Chiropractic. |
| Suggestions |
| This is the Harvard of Health Sciences, this includes medical schools. If you want to be a doctor and are not very bright, go to med school, it's much easier and less time. NCC requires 9 yrs of education vs. 8 for medical school. If you can handle it, a degree from National will put you on top of the rest. |
| Overall Opinion |
| Excellent, second to none |

| Chiropractic is a 2nd career for me and having worked in the healthcare industry in my "former life" I can tell you that this school isn't perfect, could be improved, but is 2nd to NONE in the preparation of chiropractic physicians rather than just chiropractic technicians. We understand the relationship that the nervous system has on the rest of the body as well as reverse. Sometimes it's not just a matter of fixing the nervous system. Knowing the difference and when our allopathic counterparts are needed is part of what makes us good doctors. |
| Suggestions |
| The school needs morale work as well as vertical and horizontal alignment in the curriculum to identify areas of overlap and potential areas of "thinness". |
| Overall Opinion |
| For an education that prompts comments from other healthcare professionals like, "I can trust that these doctors know what they are doing when that isn't the case with some of the other schools." and that we are respected in our hospital rotations -- then come to National. |
