CBS honors Dr. David Weeks

This month, the Chiropractic Benefit Services' "Distinguished Service" award has been granted to David W. Weeks, D.C.

Usually, chiropractors learn about CBS through their colleagues, or by news about it in The Chiropractic Journal. For Dr. Weeks, the decision to switch to CBS was the result of listening to the famed "On Purpose" tapes from the Chiropractic Leadership Alliance.

"At the time I was covered by 'another' company that supported the Mercy document," Weeks explained. "Well, ethically that did not feel right to me to be paying monthly premiums to a company that didn't support my beliefs, and I certainly didn't feel right about having them represent me."

Those feelings have been echoed by many doctors who have joined CBS since they realize that is the only decision compatible with their commitment to the art, science and philosophy of chiropractic as developed by B.J. Palmer.

"I feel better having CBS represent me, as it helps me be more congruent in principle in more areas of my life," Weeks noted.

CBS is the only malpractice program which uses, as its underwriting criteria, the Council on Chiropractic Practice guidelines. These are the only evidence-based subluxation-oriented chiropractic guidelines.
