Eastside Spring Member Meeting
Integrative Medicine
In King County, the new University of WA Osher Integrative Medicine Center is beginning to provide clinical, educational and research opportunities and collaborations with the full spectrum of interdisciplinary practitioners for the benefit patients. Leading physicians from the Center, Dr. Lucille Marchand & Dr. Iman Majd, will present on Integrative Medicine and how this evidence-based approach can help you care for patients using fewer pharmaceuticals for better health outcomes.
Family medicine inherently uses a large toolbox of services and approaches for patient centered, holistic care. Integrative medicine expands that clinical toolbox with nonpharmacological health and healing modalities that empower patients to actively participate in their care, often reducing the need for pharmaceuticals. Learn how to activate an integrative approach in your practice setting exploring clinical resources in your communities.
