Chiropractors are well trained in what they do. But beyond that there are some that really believe they are actual medical doctors, just because they get to put the Dr next to their name. 

 

IMO they have as much right to the Dr designation as a physiotherapist or osteopath does. They are all about equally trained. 

 

Part of being trained and educated is about knowing what you don’t know or commenting on things that you are not qualified to do.  Simply put, the ‘doctor’ is no more qualified than Pratt is to diagnose a concussion. 

 

My window into health care gives me enormous respect for emergency room physicians and internal medicine physicians, cardiologists, surgeons, anesthesiologists and specialists.   I have watched as these doctors save lives or do everything possible to save a life. 

 

Having someone who isn’t qualified trying to fill their shoes for attention bothers me. Not to say that the person in question isn’t good at his profession, just that maybe he should stick to his profession.  

Since you are an expert on all healthcare program curricula, can you please enlighten us on what kind of training chiropractors get on concussion protocols, including CEC courses and seminars? And, can you let us know which one of these seminars that Pratt took part in?

I just listened to the interview. The last question was one of the reasons why the media in this City needs a shakeup. "doesn't this make you want to go home"? Elias response was priceless, he turned away. Who was the dumbas* that asked that one? I don't recognize the voice.

Yeah he looked really pissed and for good reason too

Had a stroke show up on imaging.  The neurologist asked if I went for chiropractic treatments.  I thought what a strange question, so I inquired why he would need to know this. The neurologist (I know he's only a neurologist, and not a chiropractor) said that my stroke lesion was in the spot that was most often caused by a chiropractic adjustment.  I had no idea a chiropractic adjustment could cause such trauma.  

I wonder if someone in our media recently had a chiropractic adjustment, and that's their excuse for such a dumb-ass question?

WTF was that? That was just awkward...

 

Can they not start taking away media passes from these guys that are either unqualified or obvious trolls?

 

You can tell he already hates the media here.

Get so mad hearing some the media questions. So amateur. 

 

They repeatedly ask the same questions and aren’t even coherent. 

 

Absolutely terrible.

The problem is print media and to a lesser extent radio media is a dead/dying medium.

 

Therefore they don't exactly get the best and the brightest of the bunch. They're only qualifications are "can you hold a mic' and "can you speak".

 

Forget about actually knowing anything about the game or being able to come up with meaningful questions.

Whoever asked that last question (Kuzma ?) probably would like to go Matheson on him after getting embarrassed like that.

I actually wish Pettersson called him out on that one, but that's probably the polite Swede in him. He actually went easy on that guy considering the question.

 

Could you imagine that guy asking a guy like Bieksa or lets say Tortorella that question? He would have been roasted mercilessly. :lol:

 

I would have shot back with "Do you think that maybe you're just not cut out to be a reporter and it's time to go home?"

Kuzma is my best guess as well. Sounded like him.

 

I honestly don't know how or why the team puts up with some of these guys.

 

Send your twitter threats here folks :lol:
