Survey on CAM (respond by 8/15)

August 6, 2000

Passing this along because it seems like an excellent project for CAM

Practitioners to participate in so that our communication can improve with

mainstream healthcare. Thanks for reading and sharing this with others you may

feel can contribute to this project.

Dear Health Care Provider,

Hello, we are a group of students currently studying at Worcester

Polytechnic Institute in Worcester, Massachusetts. As a part of our

graduation requirements, every student must complete an Interactive

Qualifying Project (IQP) that in some way focuses on the incorporation of

society and technology. The purpose of our IQP is to investigate the

current opinions regarding Integrative Medicine. We are distributing

surveys to physicians, nurses, and Complementary Alternative Medicine

(CAM) practitioners and working with Keith Dubois of the Complementary

Health Center (CHC) at UMass Memorial in an effort to pave the way for an

integrative medical approach that will benefit all parties. We would like

to compile views and opinions that may be used to develop an informational

pamphlet that would help break down communication barriers and clear up

any misconceptions currently present within the medical community. Our

vision is one in which physicians and CAM practitioners work together to

develop a treatment plan that is best suited to a patient's specific

needs. Your participation and cooperation in completing this survey is

greatly appreciated. Please feel free to share this message and website

address with any CAM providers you know.

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Gabriel Boys
