Best Answer

A medical doctor is trained in general fields of medicine. One example of this would be a general practitioner or family doctor. A chiropractor has the same general training with extra focus on anatomy and physiology. Chiropractors use manual methods to ease bodily pain, while general doctors tend to use medicines.

Is a dc chiropractor different than a chiropractor?

This difference may indicate a slight difference in the education of the chiropractor. For example, in Canada and the US chiropractors complete a 4 year doctoral program (after an undergraduate degree) to get a doctorate in chiropractic (DC) degree. In Australia, chiropractors complete a 2 year masters degree (after an undergraduate degree) to get a masters in chiropractic. Thus, in Canada and the US, a chiropractor is a doctor and has a DC qualification, whereas in Australia a chiropractor is a therapist and has a masters degree not a DC.
