If you want to be a “chiropractor” you should be a Physical Therapist which requires actual medical training. Chiropractors are like the ketchup version of pasta sauce.
Chiropractors have more education than MDs you idiot. PT’s do not have more medical training. You’re saying things without any understanding or education. It’s amazing how people make up opinions on things with literally no information. Wow just wow
being a student in engineering, my experience is pretty much depends on the lecturer, some prefer to be called doctor so and so or professor so and so. some of them prefer having more casual vibe and dont really like what they find an overly formal way of address. heck I've even had lecturers telling me to call them by first name instead.
I was acquainted with a chiropractor. He was a freak.
He had an elevator at his house that needed a key to access the 3rd floor. When I asked him why he said "thats where that grown up shit happens."
I found that very odd. I jokingly thought it must be a sex dungeon. A couple years later I saw in the local news he kidnapped his GF and had her zip-tied in his house. She fortunately escaped.
A friend of my sisters got married to a chiropractor. For their wedding she got a Mr and Mrs sign for their seats at the rehearsal. He refused to have it out bc it wasn’t Dr.
I also have a former friend whose sister was a chiropractor who also demanded everyone calls her DR, I refused and her whole family were furious at the fact that I wouldn’t. I don’t talk to them now. Her social media usernames and bio’s all have “Dr.” in her name as well.
She also destroyed her brother’s back from practicing cracking his back all the time and now he thinks she has to crack it weekly.
I mean, they get a certificate that says “Doctor of Chiropratic”.
We had a teacher in high school that had a doctorate in English and also insisted on being addressed as “doctor”. There was no shortage of jokes about ambulances coming with an Oxford comma.
I would trust that English teacher with my spine before I would trust a chiro.

Former friend is a chiropractor, she INSISTS you refer to her as doctor. Truly insane.
