| Summary |
Is the clinically based and often depersonalized nature of Western medicine causing patients to look elsewhere for medical help? In this classic Gemini Award-winning four-part series, oncologist Dr. Robert Buckman, an authority on doctor/patient communication, analyzes the growing popularity of alternative medicine while demystifying its practices. |
