Dear Kit, it doesn't look like anyone has responded yet. I know a great one:

Deirdre Courtney. She graduated from Yo San University in 1993 and I hear she

has a successful practice in Dublin. She was an exceptional practitioner at

our school, and I know her personally. Goodluck.

The chinese literature seems to advocate an integrative approach in DM type 2.

I think

there is a recognition that it cannot be managed effectively by TCM alone,

particularly if

the patient is unable to lose weight. Then I believe oral hypoglycemics are

necessary to

prevent morbidity. The side effects can be treated with herbs. It may border

on unethical

to advise a patient that TCM can sub for oral hypoglycemics when they have

proven

benefits and TCM does not. the downside of failed tx would be amputation,

blindness and

death. I find naturopathic approaches often more amenable than TCM if lowering

sugar is

the main goal. finally, severe intractable obesity caused DM can be treated

with gastric

bypass and subsequent weight loss. While this is extreme and sowmehat barbaric,

it does

save lives.

I think that most Chinese practitioners generally advocate the use of

integrative medicine. It seems that the majority of people that

reject Western medicine are American practitioners, rather than our

Chinese colleagues. I think that this is perhaps because the Chinese

are typically trained in both modalities and recognize the strengths

and weaknesses of each, rather than going on an assumption that one

approach is superior.

 

I notice that there is an amazing difference in Chinese culture as a

whole with regard to integrative medicine. Many Westerners are

inclined to either reject CM or reject WM, whereas hardly any Chinese

people question that both approaches are valid and have something

unique to offer to different cases.

Well, there is less drug advertising here, but I do think that the

various abuses of poor WM care are arising here. When I am speaking

of integration, to some degree I am referring to the ideal- both

systems practiced well. Either WM or Chinese medicine can be

practiced poorly, but I think that is mostly a problem with poorly

educated practitioners rather than an inherent problem with the

medicine itself.

 

My main point is that the Chinese tend to have a reduced presence of

the dichotomy that marks Western healthcare. Of course, there are

still many Chinese people who reject anything but WM and others who

reject WM. But when I talk to most people in Taiwan about the use of

WM and CM at different times for different things, they tend to

respond " well, obviously. " Overall, they have much less bias against

Chinese medicine and much less bias against WM as well.

 

However, Taiwan has a different situation than the mainland. The two

medical systems tend to be both available in the same hospitals, but

they are practiced independently of each other. So both systems tend

to be done cleanly, and the WM care is more sophisticated than in the

mainland. However, Chinese doctors of WM are famous for sending

patients home with endless amount of pills. The patients expect pills

and receive pills. I'm sure sometimes the WM is done well and

sometimes it is taken to excess. On the whole, I would guess that

there is a comparable range of good doctors and bad doctors here as we

find in the States.

 

Within CM here, there is another split as well. There are CM doctors

who don't believe in traditional theory but use herbs based wholly on

pharmacology, and there are others who take a very traditional

approach and insist on correct pattern diagnosis. So even the CM

community is divided. And the hospital will divide the groups up to

compare how much profit each one generates, in order to determine

their " success. "

 

All in all, there is room for plenty of criticism and plenty of praise

for the practice of both systems here. I think it largely boils down

to the quality of the individual practitioner. My main point was

simply that the general public here tends to understand the value in

both medical systems, whereas in the States many people are

predisposed to dismiss one camp or the other.
