  • Title: Remembering Dr. Lyle Wheeler Sherman.
    Author: Hart JF.
    Journal: Chiropr Hist; 1996 Dec; 16(2):67-75. PubMed ID: 11619057.
    Abstract:
    Lyle Wheeler Sherman was a chiropractor with a passion for chiropractic. He brought dignity to the chiropractor; but most profoundly, he brought dignity to the chiropractic profession. He rendered a quality professional service and helped his fellow chiropractor do the same. He was a published author and co-developer of various chiropractic instruments. A renowned teacher, former assistant director and chief of staff of the B.J. Palmer Chiropractic Research Clinic in Davenport, Iowa, he was a sought-after speaker at both state and national chiropractic conventions. Dr. Sherman was a man of knowledge and wisdom. Local chiropractors sought his technical advice and assistance which he provided at no charge. Both laymen and chiropractors recognized him as a chiropractic authority. He regularly received letters from patients who had traveled both the medical route and the chiropractic route and were seeking the more specific care offered by Dr. Sherman. He always attempted to accommodate them. His gentle personality and sense of humor, coupled with his exactness in chiropractic analysis and adjustment procedures, won the respect of students, colleagues and patients. His expertise was recognized by his appointment to many state and national offices and by the many awards he received. His greatest and most lasting award was the chiropractic college that bears his name: Sherman College of Straight Chiropractic in Spartanburg, South Carolina--the first chiropractic college in the southeast.
