Regarding Tom Stanion's entry about Natural vs Conventional..June '85

I'm a brand new hacker on this net.  While learning to use the net, I saw one
of your messages about wholistic health.  I just wanted to let you know I
exist.

I am a Holistic Physician: an MD, board certified in allopathic medicine, who
has had to learn the hard way that you are perfectly right.  Because of that I
now have a multidiciplinary medical centre that integrates conventional medicine
with nutrition, stress management, chiropractic, dentistry, "body work", 
homeopathic, exercise, acupuncture, iridology, reflexology, applied kinesio-
logy,psychological, spiritual,electromagnetic, etc, etc,.  We have 7 profession-
als who provide the various services and we learn daily from each other.  The
day is coming soon when all health professionals will work together for the
benefit of the patient.  

We can diagnose and treat chronic problems that I could never help before.  I 
have practiced conventional medicine for 20 years and taught at the medical
school for three years.  Stick to your convictions.  Of course, I know you will.

Once one knows a basic truth one doesn't back away.  RIGHT ON.....
