Registry address differs from the current business location.

Bottom line

Mostly evidence, with a few persuasion patterns mixed in.

  • Stated credentials look inflated relative to the advice given.
  • Gives advice beyond what their license covers.
Dr. Trust Me Bro says

Patrick Garrett is serving pure seasonal filler, the rare doc bro post that forgets to smuggle in a supplement stack or a root-cause sermon. A devastating missed monetization opportunity: just heat, autumn longing, and not a single lab panel in sight.

Score breakdown

70/100
Credentials
Patrick Garrett’s post gives no clinical content to support or undermine the doctor-style title, so the score sits in the middle rather than rewarding or penalizing a credential we cannot verify from the clip.
2/100
Manipulation
There is no disclaimer, fear content, or false authority play in the visible text, so manipulation stays near zero.
15/100
Sales funnel
No products, labs, links, consultations, or affiliate hooks are present, so there is no sales funnel to score.
40/100
Grift map
Few outbound commerce links detected.
Evidence gap
No claims were literature-checked.
4/100
Bro energy
This is essentially a casual seasonal post with no health hustle visible, so the influencer-bro index remains very low.

Direct answer

Patrick Garrett, DC is licensed in Kansas as a chiropractor (DC), not as an MD or DO, and Kansas's chiropractic scope statute (K.S.A. 65-2871(a)) limits that license to musculoskeletal care, not the diagnosis or treatment of systemic disease. Even so, they advertise diagnosing or treating Autoimmune Conditions, Autoimmune Diabetes, Cancer Risk Reduction, Crohn's Disease, and Depression, conditions that belong with rheumatologists, oncologists, and gastroenterologists.

Credentials & scope

Glossary: Chiropractor (“Dr.”)

Learn: Is a chiropractor a medical doctor?

Credentials and scope reflect the dossier-wide determination for this subject, drawn from the strongest verified material across every analyzed source.

Stated: Chiropractor, DR

Verified against the federal provider registry: DC, B. Sci · Chiropractor · KS license 01-04819.

Patrick Garrett presents as a chiropractor with multiple added-sounding letters and uses the 'Dr.' title to market a broad functional/lifestyle medicine practice. The problem is not the title itself; it is the leap from a spine/musculoskeletal license into whole-body diagnosis and treatment of serious internal disease.

  • DC, Doctor of Chiropractic

    This is the core license that permits chiropractic practice, not general medical practice.

    State chiropractic boards usually limit this to musculoskeletal and related neuromuscular care, patient assessment, and approved adjunctive therapies, not primary treatment of systemic disease.

    Confirmed against the federal provider registry

  • DACCN, Likely a chiropractic neurology/clinical nutrition-style certification

    This reads like an advanced credential or board-style designation, but it is not an MD/DO license and does not convert chiropractic into internal medicine.

    May support narrow adjunctive practice, but does not authorize treating autoimmune, endocrine, oncologic, or neurologic disease as a physician would.

    Confirmed against the federal provider registry

  • DCBCN, Likely a chiropractic board certification in clinical nutrition

    This suggests nutrition-focused training, not broad medical authority.

    Nutrition counseling may be allowed, but diagnosing and treating systemic disease through lab-driven protocols remains outside typical chiropractic scope.

    Confirmed against the federal provider registry
