(Hartford-WTNH) - A bill under consideration would ensure that all malpractice
cases involving chiropractors be reported publicly.
Currently, chiropractors are not subjected to the
same scrutiny as medical doctors. The legislation is a result of the efforts of a Woodbridge woman who
suffered a stroke after having her neck manipulated by a chiropractor.
"The provider I went to had a
huge malpractice claim. It would have put a red flag because I was just seeing him for a sore shoulder, and
as a result of the treatment I had a stroke and will be permanently disabled for the rest of my life," said
Brittmarie Harwe.
Harwe wants more information to be available so that people seeking treatment can make an informed decision.
