I'm so glad I'm retired (I was an allopath, who now hopes I didn't do too much damage in my medical career). I recently had the opportunity to recommend against a college student entering an allopathic medical school. Her college has a deal with one of the old, established school of osteopathy, to admit a certain number of students from that college each year, and I recommended looking into it.

WONDERFUL! Medicine has become HUGE biz, thanks to the largest population sector ever in the world's history--the BOOMERS!! It's NOT about healing or health--hasn't been for many decades. But there are a FEW CHOICE practitioners around the world who take the Hippocratic Oath seriously. Dr. Zev Zelenko was one of them God rest his mighty soul! Dr. McCullough, Dr. Simone Gold are 2 more and there are many more that I have no knowledge of - I'm sure if you keep searching online--you WILL find a TRULY holistic practitioner and, more than likely, they'll be "off the grid" and "pay as you go"--which is fine with me. I would rather pay more and get WHOLE BODY/MIND/SPIRIT care!

Isn't it sad, though; my medical school explicitly taught the 'biopsychosocial' model, which sounds quite like what you call body/mind/spirit care.
How long ago was this and where is this medical school, Fla Mom?
Mid-'80s, South Florida
I still cannot believe that as good and decent as Zelenko was, and as smart, he fell for the chemo propaganda.
Perhaps he was bending to his family's wishes--I do not know for sure.
