Bottom line

Mostly evidence, with a few persuasion patterns mixed in.

  • Gives advice beyond what their license covers.
Dr. Trust Me Bro says

Oh, look at Ryan Mijares, the Blanket Chiro, wrapping his patients in a warm, fuzzy blanket of 'I got you' while wearing 'many hats'—probably just a DC and a vague promise. He's out here pretending to be a one-stop shop for 'whatever you need' without actually naming a condition, a protocol, or a product, which is the most boring grift of all: selling nothing but a feeling. If he ever sells a supplement or a lab panel, I'll be the first to scream 'grift,' but right now, he's just a chiropractor with a generic caption and zero commercial ambition.

Direct answer

Ryan T Mijares is licensed in Hawaii as a chiropractor (DC), not as an MD or DO, and Hawaii's chiropractic scope statute (Hawaii Chiropractic Practice Act (scope limited to musculoskeletal/spine care)) limits that license to musculoskeletal care, not the diagnosis or treatment of systemic disease. Even so, they advertise diagnosing or treating Functional Medicine, Health Evaluations, Integrative Wellness, Functional Medicine for systemic disease, and Full Body Chiropractic Adjustments, conditions that belong with appropriately board-certified physicians.

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: none · Likely: Chiropractor

Verified against the federal provider registry: D.C. · Chiropractor · HI license DC1365.

The subject explicitly identifies as a 'Chiropractor,' which is a state-regulated professional license (Chiropractor) with a narrow scope focused on musculoskeletal and nervous-system conditions.

  • DC, Doctor of Chiropractic

    A state-licensed professional degree focused on spinal adjustment and musculoskeletal health. It is not a medical doctor (MD) or osteopathic doctor (DO) license and does not grant general internal medicine authority.

    State chiropractic boards typically limit scope to evaluation and treatment of musculoskeletal and nervous-system conditions via spinal adjustment. It does not include diagnosing/treating systemic disease (cancer, autoimmune, diabetes), prescribing drugs, or managing primary disease.

    Confirmed against the federal provider registry

State Chiropractic Licensing Board (General)

Subject appears to be a chiropractor. Practice state could not be reliably detected, using general chiropractic board standards. No obvious state chiropractic licensing board scope or disclosure violations flagged in this material, but verify against current board rules.

Chiropractic scope is generally limited to evaluation/treatment of musculoskeletal/nervous-system conditions via spinal adjustment and authorized adjunctive therapies. Advertising must identify the provider as a DC, not an MD/DO. Financial relationships with vendors must be disclosed when products/tests are promoted. Scope limitations must be clear when care extends beyond musculoskeletal/nervous-system treatment.

Message

Hi, We are independent journalists that are focused on uncovering grift and manipulation perpetrated by medical practitioners that are operating outside their licensed scope. A reader of Dr. Trust Me Bro thought you might know something firsthand about Ryan T Mijares and the public claims we documented here: https://drtrustmebro.com/influencer/-gH7gUItIMAFDMG74BaG7#report We want to hear from insiders: employees, former employees, accountants, billing staff, sales reps, IT staff, anyone who knows. Worth telling us about Ryan T Mijares: - Care plans structured to funnel sales to take advantage of someone's grandma - Insight into the real reason they refuse insurance, Medicaid, or Medicare, not the version they give the public - Upselling unnecessary tests and panels - Kickbacks for lab, vendor, or other referrals - Discussions or policy, written or otherwise, that steers patients away from physicians properly licensed for the care Ryan T Mijares is treating out of scope - Medicaid or Medicare overbilling - Any scheme to squeeze a few more dollars out of grandma We are especially interested in how Ryan T Mijares handled payment and coverage: were people told to swipe an FSA or HSA card at checkout, handed a superbill or receipt to submit themselves, or told the service is not covered by insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid? Here is why that matters: https://drtrustmebro.com/patterns/fsa-hsa-loophole You can also simply hit reply to this email and start the conversation here or you can reach the confidential tip line here, on the record or anonymously: https://drtrustmebro.com/whistleblower You do not have to give your name. Add whatever context, dates, or links you are comfortable sharing, and leave out anything you are not. There is no pressure to respond, and you can ignore this message if it is not relevant to you. This message was sent by a reader through Dr. Trust Me Bro's website. Your address was entered by that reader, not collected by us, and is not added to any mailing list. Independent data journalism, serious citations.

We send this on your behalf from our tip line address. It links the public report and the confidential tip line, and never claims wrongdoing.

Firsthand details help most: how payment and coverage were handled (FSA/HSA card vs. a superbill to submit, declining Medicare/Medicaid). More on the FSA/HSA loophole.
