The importance of the correct diagnosis of skin disease – Journal article

By October 10, 2012Chinese herbal medicine

Hi everyone,

I recently had an eight page article published in the prestigious Journal of Chinese Medicine (JCM) on the importance of defining the correct disease name. Although it will mostly appeal to other practicing doctors, some non-health care professionals may enjoy the piece as well. In the article I present historical evidence of doctors treating well defined skin disorders since at least 300 bc. I then list several examples from my own clinic as to why the correct disease diagnosis is crucial in achieving a good outcome.

You may find the article on the JCM website.

Wishing you health,

Dr. Trevor Erikson
