Proposed requirenment of a Bachelor's Degree to obtain licensure for a Chiropractor
 

I support the proposed additional educational requirements to obtain a license to practice Chiropractic in Virginia. I additionally feel this should apply to all like professions such as Medicine as to not be discriminatory. This increased educational requirement would serve to increase the competency of the providers and therefore the quality of care delivered to the citizens of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Respectfully submitted,

Michael S. Pankow, D.C.
