Dr. Smith Asks some important questions of interest to Gonzales residents - Chiropractor Gonzales Dr. Smith Asks...

How come medical doctors don't recommend chiropractic?
That's changing. Years of prejudice and bias are giving way to research showing the benefits of chiropractic care. As more and more Gonzales folks seek alternatives to drugs and surgery, more and more medical practitioners are referring their patients to chiropractors.
What's the difference between a "good" drug and a "bad" drug?
As a chiropractor, I see the use of many drugs (legal or illegal) as merely symptom treating. Worse, virtually every drug produces unwanted effects. The effects of chiropractic are largely positive effects. If you're a Gonzales parent, consider carefully before giving your child a cough medication, cold remedy or pain reliever so this sort of question doesn't arise in the first place.
