Complimentary Medicine

Your patient has been suffering from chronic low back pain for many years now. She voices her frustration with the various treatment modalities that her physician has been trying and says her friend had recommended a homeopath.

  • How do you respond to your patient’s request to consult with a homeopath?
  • What if you disagree with her request?
  • What should you consider before making your recommendation?
