When I qualified as a Doctor at 25 years old, I thought I knew everything there was to know about health and medicine.
By the age of 30, I realized my medical training was limited and I didn’t really know much about health and wellness.
So I went on a journey of discovery to expand my horizons and studied acupuncture, Chinese medicine, Functional medicine, nutrition, yoga and Buddhism.
By 50, I realized my life training was limited too as my daughter (a teenager at the time) was pointing out “how stupid” I was.
And now that I am 55, I realize I have amassed a lot of knowledge but have so much more to learn.

The Doctor is in. Tips to help stave off the H1N1 swine flu from Dr. Frank Lipman...
Summer is over and the question I am being asked most frequently in my practice is, “what do I do about Swine flu?” My patients are wondering whether or not they should get vaccinated and the simple answer I give most of the time is ..NO!
From what you may have read, you might think that the swine flu vaccine is the answer to swine flu. Unfortunately this is not true and until we know that the vaccine is safe, I cannot in good conscience recommend it to most of my patients.
From the outset, let me say, I am not anti all vaccinations, rather I am pro vaccine safety and freedom of choice.

Two Questions To Ask That Are More Important Than A Diagnosis…
After 30 years of practicing Medicine, I have learned that for any chronic illness or ailment, treating underlying imbalances and dysfunctions is more important than making a diagnosis and naming the disease. Ultimately, asking the right questions is more important than giving a label to a set of observations.
