We recently reported on the chaos caused by the British Columbia College of Chiropractors  adoption of an “acceptable evidence” policy and their actions in going after chiropractors who they deem have violated it and threatening to do more of the same. 

After reviewing the Policy and the standards of conduct for chiropractors in British Columbia we undertook a review of the websites of the members of the Board of the College of Chiropractors to see if their own websites would meet their Policy. 

We report on any violations found.

***All of the website content discussed herein was live as of October 15, 2018*** 

Reviewing her website was easy because she doesn’t have much on it as she practices in a rural medical clinic and their website doesn’t say anything about chiropractic except that they have one on staff. 

There was no other publicly available marketing materials found on a search of the internet. 

See below for the investigations of other Board Members
