Welcome to Palmer! You may know that Palmer College is the first and largest chiropractic college in the world, and that chiropractic started right here on our Main Campus, but we asked our six Main Campus admissions counselors what stands out about Palmer’s academic curriculum. 

1. Kelan Ritchie
Palmer’s Doctor of Chiropractic Program is all-encompassing, extending beyond the education, training, and success of our students and graduates. By design, Palmer’s program is comprehensive and challenging, rooted deeply in the science, art, and philosophy of chiropractic. Our graduates leave here with a refined skill set most conducive to their patient’s positive response to care. It’s this positive response that circles back to the training they receive and ultimately grows the profession.
