Ahvie Herskowitz, MD presents "A Highly Individualized Approach to Restoring Health: Converging Modern Medicine with Tools from Other Traditions and Practices" on June 19, 2014 Our current medical model is unsustainable, rewarding procedures more than results. "Evidence-based medicine" which constitutes our standards of care -- is contradicted in 1 out of every 7 studies. My colleague, Dr. Eric Opol, has described our standards of care being dictated by "eminence medicine" -- by committees formed with senior academic clinicians whose work is largely funded by pharmaceutical interests. The "average" patient, which is the basis of pharmaceutical drug development, is a fiction. We all require individualized evaluations, risk assessments and treatment plans.
