Customer Feedback
Dr. Thistle's Research Reviews and Online Courses are great. They are an excellent source of information for practitioners. Having readily digestible, practically oriented research is key to keeping our diagnosis and treatment protocols current. Thanks very much for this.
I always feel better after attending a course with Dr. Thistle. I’m up to date and providing the best care to my patients based on my clinical experience AND the most up to date research. With a busy practise and family life, it would be impossible for me to evaluate the droves of studies that come out. Great job!
Once again, a slam dunk for Dr. Thistle and his latest E-Seminar. “Older & Bolder: Chiropractic Care for Healthy Aging” is an engaging, informative, high-quality presentation that provides clinical insight and wisdom for those of us in the trenches. Proud of your professionalism and commitment to our profession in Canada. Thanks for the audible guffaws from your blooper section!
Well done, Shawn! The “Chiropractic Checkup from the Neck Up” program delivered more clinical value than expected. If I take a course and learn one thing that I can use in practice right away, I'm happy. In this course, I learned six new applicable things just in the first section. The Treatment Consideration section is very well explained and easily implemented into practice. My understanding of stroke risk and what to looking for in practice has changed.
I have been a subscriber to Dr. Thistle's Research Reviews for many years now. As my practice has grown and life has become busier, I have found it to be an invaluable service for keeping up to date on new trends in manual medicine. Thanks for all your efforts.
In my 25 years of practice, I would say that this course that you put together is the best CE course I have ever had the privilege of taking! Thanks for making it informative and bringing me up to date on the relevant emerging literature.
I’ve found the Online Courses very helpful this year in getting my CPD reading done well in advance of our UK deadline – thank you, it’s a very good service and the reviews are relevant to our work.
This was my first in person Seminar and it surpassed my expectations! Listening to literature being summarized for 8 hours proved to be shockingly engaging, thanks to Dr. Thistle. The course layout, content and breaks were all perfectly planned to keep the material interesting. I absolutely learned useful information I will integrate into my clinical practice. This will not be my last Seminar with Dr. Thistle!
Shawn is a leader in our profession and respected around the world for his knowledge, character, and work. If you ever have an opportunity to attend his seminars, I highly recommend you do so. You will not be disappointed you spent the time to attend.
Continuing-education can be intimidating, expensive, a waste of time, or all the above. With Shawn, you get a full day of relevant and up-to-date information that you can apply in practice every day. It’s entertaining and interesting…worth every penny!
