Week 6- Respect in the West

Respect in Western medicine..it depends on who you talk to. Sure we know that Chinese medicine works on the spiritual plane AND the physical plane. It has been proven that it helps with IVF by triggering the production of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone, but science is still a religion. I hope some doctors come to find more of an open mind, but they believe only what they want to believe. One of my patients at school said her doctor "whispered" to her to get acupuncture. He told her that is the only thing that worked for him. What if he were to actually be open about this with other doctors? What a difference that would make...
