Many of my patients find me through one or another Internet listing—some listing services are more efficient than others, so vet them carefully. But word of mouth is also a valuable ally. Finally, find a good office location that really suits you, and STAY there for a long time. My patient base has snowballed since I've been in a stable location.

It is the gut, and specifically the Small Intestine, which technically has almost as many nerve endings in the body as our brains. Interestingly, traditional Ayurvedic medicine has honored the role of the Small Intestine for millenia, calling it the 'Seat of Intelligence."

While I agree with many of the other respondents who say that insurance needs to cover a broader range of services—including traditional and CAM therapies—insurance coverage won't solve the problem as long as reimbursement rates are uniformly low.

(more) While I agree with many of the other respondents who say that insurance needs to cover a broader range of services—including traditional and CAM therapies—insurance coverage won't solve the problem as long as reimbursement rates are uniformly low. I pride myself on taking a whole hour for each patient, and my time-of-service rates (i.e., cash rates) are reasonable for the amount of time and services that are provided. At present, only about 20% of my patients are insurance patients. I wouldn't be able to pay my office rent or keep my doors open if everyone had insurance at the typical reimbursement rates—or else I would have to cut back on the amount of time I spend with each patient, which I refuse to do. It's a matter of quality therapy for me. Insurance is a thorny thicket, and not one with easy answers.
