Blending Mainstream and CAM Treatments with Marc Weill
submitted by: admin on 09/19/2013
Mainstream and CAM independently work together, but there's little integration between the two. Generally, patients keep this a secret from the other group. Being a quarterback to guide the inclusion of whatever is needed works better.
Cancer Patients Rely on CAM
submitted by: admin on 09/19/2013
Cancer patients turn to CAM more than half the time, and especially women. The chiasm between mainstream and CAM is limiting. When there is little hope, we instinctively turn to alternative approaches.

Collaborative Health Care
submitted by: admin on 09/19/2013
The best care combines the brilliance of hi-tech mainstream medicine with the low-tech of ancient indigenous healing systems. Never before have we had this opportunity. There is enough disease to go around but not enough solutions.
Collaborative Medicine with Martin Rossman, MD
submitted by: admin on 09/19/2013
Working together in collaboration with the patient as a partner is important in making the best decisions for treatment.

Containing Health Care Costs
submitted by: admin on 04/18/2024
We spend too much money for what we get back in service, and our health care is rated only 37th in the world. End of life care uses half of all money spent on health care. MDs need to become involved in deciding how money is going to be spent on what. It takes a community of people to make a collaborative decision that is sensible.
Creating a Health Care Program that Works
submitted by: admin on 09/19/2013
Appreciation of disciplines other than mainstream medicine broadens the scope of care and deepens the options. Healing Circles are a classic example of integrative health care. There is enough disease to go around, but there are too few solutions. No discipline has solved the epidemic of chronic diseases. Maybe we should work together!
