Student Business Show Episode 7

Dr. Kevin Christie shares Episode 7 of the MCM Student Business Show, designed for chiropractic students and early-career doctors, and featuring a clinical segment with Dr. Mark King.

Dr. Christie explains how new associates can contribute to practice growth by building a referral directory, reaching out—with patient permission—to allied healthcare professionals to strengthen patient care and develop referral relationships.

Dr. King reflects on the evolution of his clinical confidence, from the certainty he felt after graduation, through the challenges of inconsistent outcomes, to the confidence he developed around age 40 through experience, mentorship, continuing education, and improved case management skills.

Also in this episode, Dr. Christie introduces the patient-adherence “Communication Triangle” and shares advice on evaluating associate opportunities, emphasizing the importance of aligning with a clinic’s philosophy and clinical approach to avoid long-term mismatches.

This is a must-listen episode for students and early-career chiropractors looking to build both clinical confidence and professional success.
