A member asked:
How can you become an alternative medicine doctor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Training: I became an alternative medicine specialist in 1990 before there were formal organizations teaching and credentialing doctors. Now doctors can complete coursework and be certified by the american academy of anti again medicine. The life extension foundation also maintains a directory of holistic physicians that they have screened as well.
