Ian has a serious problem brewing in his lungs. He is coughing up blood on a regular basis. Ian hates hospitals and is especially suspicious of doctors. He does trust his chiropractor though. Ian makes an appointment with his chiropractor to get treatment for his lung issues. Why would it be unlikely that the physician would be able to treat Ian with due care?

Chiropractors are not trained or licensed to treat serious medical conditions like lung issues. Coughing up blood is a serious symptom that could be indicative of a life-threatening condition, such as pneumonia, tuberculosis, or even lung cancer. It is important for Ian to seek immediate medical attention from a qualified physician who has the expertise and equipment necessary to properly diagnose and treat his condition. Ignoring the advice of a doctor in favor of treatment from a chiropractor could delay necessary treatment and put Ian's health at risk.
