GENERAL MEDICINE-Naturopathic Visits Dr Theo Christodoulakis license is in general medicine and takes pride in being a well rounded physician. Assessment: A good medical treatment starts with a good medical intake which requires time to assess the person and the condition treated. “Those 5 minutes consultations are only done in TV shows, or physicians that have forgotten or never learned the teachings of Hippocrates, the father of Medicine”. The first visit usually takes 45 minutes to 1.5 hours. The only thing that a Physician can do in 5 minutes is to mask the symptoms. Diagnosis is paramount in medicine and it might take more than a visit. Options: Dr. Theo provides options that are best for the patient and that means he will refer to other specialist if there is a need. There is no physician that knows everything. It’s the medical system that can help the person. That means a good physician, a caring nurse, a skillful lab tech, a polite receptionist and a compliant patient. Treat the least harmful way: A lot of medications and other therapies have serious side effects. Finding a way to treat the person according to their severity and need, requires a physician with common sense that cares. Rule out: this is what every good physician does before he/she selects his treatment. He needs to consider the worst case scenario and the most common cause of your symptoms. The rule out is done by elimination through questioning, clinical presentation and laboratory testing. Patients need to be patient! Listen to the physician, follow his recommendations and come back for follow up check ups. Do not diagnose yourself through TV and friends. Ask questions! |
