To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing in regard to your recent employment posting on the Career Bliss website. I am very interested as I feel my qualifications match well with what you are looking for.
Over the past few years, I have taken time away from practice to focus on raising my two young boys. I have done intermittent practice relief to keep my skills up, but I am now currently searching for the right opportunity to return to practice. I have just over 10 years experience in the chiropractic profession. During that time, I have successfully treated a wide variety of patient conditions and have enjoyed helping patients gain a better quality of life through chiropractic care.
My previous work experience has given me the confidence to treat a wide array of musculoskeletal disorders. In conjunction with traditional chiropractic manipulative treatment, I assess patients using functional movements to determine if any faulty patterns are present and then utilize motion palpation and hands on manual therapy to treat.
In addition to my chiropractic expertise, I have excellent communication skills to help with educating and teaching patients. I have also learned proficient time management skills to help in allowing an office to flow smoothly and efficiently.
I am eager to find out more about this employment opportunity. I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Wm Joe Grigg, D.C.
