The study reveals that chiropractors display superior clinical precision in distinguishing specific conditions rather than defaulting to vague diagnoses, and most importantly, they excel at triaging patients—a critical skill that can boost treatment for non-surgical cases while reducing needless surgical consultation waiting lists. (2)This convergence isn't by chance—it's the natural outcome of chiropractic care being well positioned to deliver exactly what modern medicine is now acknowledging top patient care.
