As you can see by reading the summary of my professional accomplishments and education, I’ve been a practicing doctor for just over 19 years. The practice of medicine is very rewarding to me because I deeply care about the patients I serve.

During my years of practice I have grown a deep mistrust of the large pharmaceutical companies, sometimes the government itself and even some other medical professionals.  The problem is that all of these entities sometimes have interests that can conflict with the interest of the patient.

Drug companies are responsible to shareholders to increase profits at any price which tends to conflict with making safety the primary concern.  Government bureaucrats are under intense pressure not to end up in an unpleasant media report and to keep statistics favorable.  These pressures can sometimes push them to take liberties.  Furthermore, some unscrupulous physicians in the interest of lining their pockets with profits will be eager to coax you into a major medical procedure like surgery which might not always be the best option.

For these reasons, these companies and individuals do not always enjoy what I have to say!  But, I don’t care because my pledge to you is to always put your interests first.  Therefore, a lot of the advice I give is based on alternative and natural treatments that deal with the problem without the multitude of side effects that conventional medicines often produce. I do this because it’s my belief that the first line of attack should be the least invasive with the most minimal risk.  Quite often, alternative and natural treatments meet this criteria.

I’ll tell you which treatments work and those to avoid – and I’ll tell you in plain straightforward English – without all that baffling medical jargon.
