Dr. McAllister is a finalist in the Director category, along with executives from the American Dental Association and Lymphoma Research Foundation, among others. Overall, the awards span seven categories and more than 40 finalists.
"This award is tangible recognition of how far our profession has come and is gratifying on so many levels," said Dr. McAllister. "For more than a decade, the Foundation has been knocking on doors in the media with little to no avail, and now, not only are we being answered, but journalists are seeking our insight and commentary about safe, effective and drug-free chiropractic care. More importantly, a growing number of doctors of chiropractic are being included in collaborative, multidisciplinary care teams not only to help curb opioid prescriptions, but also to help patients achieve greater sustained pain relief and mobility."
An awards luncheon will take place on June 5, 2019 at the Yale Club of New York City. In the event that Dr. McAllister wins the Director category, we'll be sure to let you know.
