Anatomy Course for Chiropractic Assistants
Whether handling billing, taking appointments and payments, or performing modalities, chiropractic assistants should have a basic understanding of anatomy. Doctors and patients will use anatomy terms that sometimes confuse your practice staff.
This 2 ½ hour course is designed to give your unlicensed staff a basic understanding of the anatomy of the human body. Dr. Louis Crivelli brilliantly lays out the important anatomic systems for your staff to better assist you and your patients in your office.
