Course Instructor: Joseph S. Ferezy, DC

CE: Five (5) CE Classroom Hours

Class Description:

This class is a part of a grand review of the bedside neurological examination, focusing The hands on evaluation of the neck (including the thyroid gland), head, cranial nerves, and also a review of the subject of vertebrobasilar accident following cervical manipulation.  The chiropractic physician must be able to differentiate disease of the neuro-musculoskeletal system and a competent examination is of key importance.  The formal or “hands on” portion of the examination should be performed by the physician who is best trained in that type of diagnosis.  The doctor of chiropractic is uniquely qualified to perpetuate the knowledge of the bedside physical examination and pass these skills to the next generation of doctors of chiropractic.  Join chiropractic neurologist Dr. Ferezy in a rapid fire video lecture covering important aspects of the evaluation of the clinical bedside neurological examination of the head, thyroid, neck, and cranial nerves, with an additional review of the issue of cervical manipulation and vertebrobasilar ischemia.
