In today’s show, Dr. Don is joined by Dr. Clare Haitsma, a graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic who has been in practice for 46 years. After chiropractic school, Dr. Haitsma returned to Alberta and practiced for 30 years before retiring to go on church missions.
That retirement didn’t last long, and six years ago, he returned to start a new practice from scratch in Lethbridge, Alberta. It hasn’t been an easy road to rebuild, and there have been many changes along the way, but it’s important to keep focused on your values and the needs of your patients.
Dr. Don MacDonald is the co-creator of the MacDonald Safety Corridor Protocol, co- founder of The Informed Chiropractor, and has been helping chiropractors integrate Polyvagal Theory into practice for more than two decades. He teaches internationally on neurologically focused chiropractic, communication, and nervous system regulation.
