THANKS, AGAIN, FOR A WONDERFUL CONVENTION!
Dr. Bob Dubin, NMCA’s newly elected President, had the following to say about the Convention this year: “Sandia Resort and Casino, north of Albuquerque, provided a marvelous sylvan setting for the NMCA’s best convention EVER! Over 175 DCs and staff were in attendance along with 34 exhibitors promoting everything from supplements and homeopathics to orthopedic supplies to adjusting tables and more. The energy was palpable and the crowd was well pleased with the entire weekend, as were all of the exhibitors.

The academic programs covered Chiropractic Neurology, Asset Management, Insurance Billing Coding and, additionally, several local members of the NMCA presented well-attended concurrent tracks in adjusting techniques, media training and more.

Lunch on Saturday included a hilarious and informative show by an excellent hypnotherapist/standup comedian, which really raised the bar on entertainment for future events.

The association community has never been stronger in anyone’s memory, and the commitment to advance our profession has been stated and the mantle has been accepted by our membership. We have an ambitious agenda before us. Let’s get it all done before the next convention in April of 2007. Plan on being with us for great education, exhibitions, entertainment and a lot of fun! See you then!”
