I personally have never had any experience with a chiropractor. On February 16, 2016 I had an opportunity to interview an individual I had never met, and ask about their profession that I have very little knowledge about. My group with Stephen, Matthew, and Alexis met and we observed Mr. Kip Francis’s privately owned clinic in Durant, Oklahoma. During our interview, we wanted to know more than just his professional career, but also if it harmonizes with his personal life.
The Francis Family Chiropractic clinic is located on Washington Avenue. Washington is a fairly busy street and it is a convenient and easily accessible location for patients. The clinic is part of a brick building where the other space is currently vacant. It is an older building
Previously, he worked at a nursing home where he spent a great deal of his time socializing with his patients during their rehabilitation. He understands the importance of listening to the concerns and questions of the patients, and ensures that he builds a trusting relationship with each of them. In order to grow as a therapist, he is always learning something knew from his fellow therapists and doctors which he works closely with.

He had overseen Arlene on several hospitalizations, and surgical recoveries, finding her and her husband to be intelligent, articulate people. He had met her sons but had little direct contact with them.
I received an assignment to investigate a complaint on Dr. Michael Kaplan on 11/20/2014 regarding some concerns raised about Dr. Kaplan’s practice at Boone Hospital.

This was reported to the Board of Healing Arts and to the National Practitioner Databank.

Laying on the couch scrolling through the T.V guide, reading the information for shows and movies. Nothing seemed to catch my attention until I came across “Just Wright”- “Leslie Wright is a physical therapist. At a gas station she meets a basketball player, Scott McKnight. Scott becomes injured, an injury that could possibly ruin his career. Leslie encourages him and helps him get back in the game.

The first question asked of Dr. Henkel was when did he start the practice, which he responded by telling me that he opened the business with his friend from the hospital and one secretary that worked at the hospital about fifteen years ago.
