Do you have a Dr or DO that is holistic that you'd recommend?

A DO is a pre-med student who didn’t have the qualifications to get into medical school

I fine there lot of pills for problem but rarely cure? Maybe not cost effective? Some taking 4 or 5 more different meds day. Which usually leads to more a day?

IMO Covid good example. Man made virus, with man made vaccine that costs trillions and millions died even with vaccine? Which IMO shouldn’t have been tampering with nature in first place. Why create new problems when plenty of other problems to solve (cure).

So, I can see why some not completely trust system?

We don't want to have to fly back up north for annual exams so looking for a good recommendation if you have one.

Thanks everyone!
I've been going to this Dr. since 7/22. Very knowledgeable. Leaky gut gone. Currently detoxing from heavy metals and chemicals (glyphosate, among others). https://www.alternativewholistichealth.com/

Here:
HealthCare Partners Family Medicine

They're right across the street from the Sharon Morse Medical Center on 441, right near the Boone Gate of the Historic Section. You can get to them by golf cart if you come over the golf cart bridge to the Historic Section, continue on Paradise 5 houses past the Boone Gate, and take a left onto the golf cart path. You need your gate pass, there's no red button. Once you get through that gate, take an immediate left into the back of the medical group's parking lot.

"Leaky gut"????
detox from heavy metals???
detox from "chemicals"???

Yep, sounds right up the alley of an "alternative holistic practitioner"

Absolutely, 100% agree! We're all ultimately responsible for our own health.

And that's terrible, and there were a lot of women who died because of DES. There have been other drugs that have failed and have killed people as well. So please don't misunderstand my prior posts but know there is a difference between a mistake and a conspiracy. It is not a reason to go run off to some quack.

Interesting. Do you really, honestly believe you have the medical knowledge to "be responsible for your own health"? That is a bill of goods that someone has sold the public. I know 10,000 times as much medicine as those on this thread advocating alternative medicine and I go to other doctors, and do not decide for "myself".

If you really believed that, you wouldn't be asking strangers on the internet for recommendations for a doctor.

Our relationship with our physicians is a PARTNERSHIP. Neither party is "ultimately responsible" for either side's health. They work in tandem. If you give up 100% of your responsibility to your doctor, you're just as irresponsible as if you retain 100% of the responsibility.

YOU ARE responsible for your own health. You seek professional help to assist (i.e. you are taking control to get the help from others) but YOU are the one to has to seek that help, decide if you will follow, and to actually follow through with the care, It's one's free will to decide what type care, from what type practitioner to get help if they so choose. You are delegating the responsibility to anyone.

This, exactly. Holistic providers are looking to cure. Not just indiscriminately had out Rx's.

Thanks again, everyone!
