“GIVE ME A LITTLE, AND I’LL GIVE YOU A LOT.” These are familiar words to patients of Roland Cayer, D.C. (Florida, `07). A passionate practitioner of Sacro-Occipital Technique (SOT), Dr. Cayer is known for the uncommon care and attention he invests in forging close bonds with the patients who visit his Celebration, Florida, office. For him, longer hours and lower volumes are a small price to pay for the opportunity to provide the kind of chiropractic care be believes his patients deserve. Getting to know his patients on a deeper level has another payoff, too: It’s how he builds a pipeline of prospective Palmer students, potential preceptees and even possible future SOT torchbearers. “I talk to my patients — I get to know them at various times of their lives,” explains Dr. Cayer. “Intuitively, I can tell who would respond well to studying chiropractic.” Over the years, he has referred seven students who


went on to graduate from Palmer, hosted twice that number for preceptorships and welcomed upwards of 50 to shadow his practice. “Originally, I wanted someone to work with me in my office, someone who had the heart and soul for the profession and was willing to practice this technique that entails cranial work, organ therapy, even working with emotional issues patients might have. Those are the people I’ve sent to Palmer.”


“Every doctor in the field should be anxious to mentor young doctors because the survival of the profession depends so much on passing down what we’ve learned.”


—Roland Cayer, D.C. 19
