Q. Does Chiropractic Economics look for success in any particular types of practice?
A. Each issue of the magazine is dedicated to an editorial theme. Ideally, we would like to feature a practitioner in our Success Profile who has demonstrated success related to the theme — for example, someone who has used creative marketing to brand his or her clinic (Issue #1, marketing); a chiropractor who has built a successful integrated healthcare practice (Issue #2); a chiropractor who has a growing anti-aging clinic (Issue #7).a practitioner who has built the practice, relying on technology for state-of-the art diagnostics (Issue #10); or a doctor who runs an unusual and growing sports medicine clinic (Issue #14). Please consult our article submission calendar to review the theme of each issue.

Individuals meet initial criteria will be asked to provide more in-depth information on the clinic, including a description of its operation as well as a short history of its collections and billings. A final selection is made based on this information.
