How Can YOU Get Satisfactory Primary Care
Medical Services When You NEED Them?

As promised, I have a solution for you, BUT you’ll need to look at your problem from a different perspective.

You see, I have a better plan of action for you to consider than vainly knocking on the doors of traditionally trained Primary Care Providers who cannot or will not see you. 

And I can help you with every step along the way – starting now. But first, a question…

 “Are you willing to do whatever it takes, within reason, to have your Primary Care health issues taken care of?” 

If your answer is NO... you need read no further and I thank you for visiting my site and wish you well in your quest to find a traditional Primary Care Provider.

On the other hand, If your answer is YES, you’re on your way to being pleasantly surprised.

I want to be sure you understand that I’m not, in any way, railing against you seeing a well-trained, responsible and conscientious traditional Primary Care Provider.

What I mean is, if you currently have a Primary Care Provider - such as a Family Doctor, Internist, Pediatrician or OB/GYN - who truly believes in comprehensive care and continuity of care and who is attentive to you, communicates well with you, is concerned about your general well-fare and doesn’t prescribe a drug or reach for a scalpel for every symptom, I’d strongly suggest that you hold on to that Practitioner.

You never know when something really serious may come up that requires her particular training. For example, you wouldn’t go looking for an Alternative Medicine Practitioner, such as a Nutritionist, if you had a bone in your arm protruding through the skin, would you?

On the other hand... if you don’t have a trusting and beneficial relationship with a Primary Care Provider - or if you just can’t get in to see one - then all of what you’ve been reading and will read is intended for you.

Here are seven POWERFUL reasons why you - YOU - should consider using an Alternative Medicine Practitioner for
many of your Primary Care health issues: 

• Most Alternative Medicine Practitioners, such as Chiropractors, Acupuncturists, Iridologists, Nutritionists and licensed Massage Therapists, have spent years training in their respective disciplines.
   
• Alternative Medicine Practitioners are often taught the basics of human anatomy and physiology from the same textbooks used by traditionally trained medical Doctors - such as Gray’s Anatomy.
   
• During their training, Alternative Medicine Practitioners are usually taught how to conduct a basic, comprehensive office visit with a Primary Care patient who doesn’t require surgical intervention, injections or lab work.
   
• Alternative Medicine Practitioners are taught to consider and address the cause of illness, not just the apparent symptoms – in other words they will treat you - the whole person - not just your illness.
   
• Alternative Medicine Practitioners will usually admit you as a patient quickly and will take the time to get to know you as a person and actually listen to what you have to say about your condition.
   
• Alternative Medicine Practitioners will often encourage communication with you outside of the office to ensure you really understand the recommended counseling or treatment.
   
• Perhaps most important to you, most Alternative Medicine Practitioners often allow you to work out a comfortable payment plan for their services to you.

I know you’re itching to ask this question...

What does our LEGAL SYSTEM think about Alternative Medicine?

I’m the first to tell you that whomever you approach to take care of your Primary Care health issues should be an experienced and competent Practitioner who knows what he or she is doing. This seems to be the crux of the problem that traditional Primary Care Providers have with Alternative Medicine Practitioners.

Well, let me set your mind to rest...  

In the case of Collins-Tansey, after reviewing extensive arguments from both sides, the Supreme Court of the State of New Jersey ruled that ‘drugless healing’ is an exact and acceptable science. The court ordered that drugless Practitioners are not to be judged by anyone other than Practitioners with similar training and who supported their philosophy. 

Although this opinion may not reflect the view of every state, it was certainly considered a major legal decision and a landmark case concerning the legitimacy of Alternative Medicine as a viable system of health care services delivery to the American public. 

There... now do you feel better about running to your nearest Alternative Medicine Practitioner for some of those pesky Primary Care health issues? 

I’m sure you do!
