Why People Are Flocking to Complementary Medicine
Integrative, natural, complementary, homeopathic, alternative... these are all terms that describe health approaches that were developed outside of mainstream Western (or conventional) medicine.

And, more and more people are turning to these modalities.

Dr. Alan Tillotson joins Dr. Abel to discuss all the money being spent on complementary medicine and the factors that underlie patients’ pursuit of options different from traditional allopathic care.
