Reflective of a significant shift within health care in the United States at the turn of the 21st century, an increasing percentage of chiropractors were working in mainstream health care settings, though in 2014 that was still only 8.0%. Instead, 83.0% reported being in private practice. Although they had been trained and prepared extensively to be clinicians before they were licensed, most chiropractors had to also be entrepreneurs if they were to be financially self-sustaining. Approximately 2,500 chiropractic students graduate in North America each year. At the turn of the 21st century, more than 20% in California failed during their first decade in practice, a rate four times as high as that of physicians. Despite that high level of attrition, the college-to-career transition of chiropractors has been little studied. Only one study had previously researched chiropractors' college-to-career transition from the perspective of chiropractors. No previous research had studied the experience of chiropractors who had successfully built financially viable private practices during their college-to-career transition, though that would be the goal for more than four out of five chiropractic college graduates.This qualitative study used a narrative inquiry method to investigate the experiences of 10 chiropractors who had built financially viable private practices during their college-to-career transition, asking them to "Please share your experience of developing a financially viable private practice after chiropractic college." The 10 chiropractors who participated had been licensed between 4- and 14-years, initially being licensed between the years of 2004 and 2014. From the data collected during their interviews about their experience of building a financially viable private practice, four themes emerged: integrity, perseverance, making a difference, and partnerships. Based upon those four themes and an extensive study of the historical and sociological forces influencing chiropractic in 2019, further research was recommended in: chiropractic partnerships, social identity creation, negative messaging within chiropractic colleges concerning business, training students in the psychological aspects of a college-to-career transition during chiropractic college, and supporting novices in the early stage of their own college-to-career transition while still in chiropractic college.
