What are the responsibilities and job description for the Chiropractor (DC) – Full-Time | Memphis, TN & Southaven, MS position at The Joint Chiropractic?
Memphis, TN (East Memphis, Midtown, Bartlett, Collierville) and Southaven, MS
Practice chiropractic. Skip insurance billing.
We are a locally owned The Joint Chiropractic group—five clinics, first location opened in Memphis in 2013. We have full-time Doctor of Chiropractic openings at our Memphis-area and Southaven clinics. New graduates and experienced DCs are both welcome.
This is a walk-in, membership-based model. You examine, adjust, educate, and document. The front desk runs the lobby. You are not chasing insurance claims or running a practice.
We are a wellness-based practice. The work is routine, affordable chiropractic care—walk-in visits and membership patients who want to feel better and stay that way. This is not a personal injury, workers’ comp, or insurance-based clinic.
