Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is the term for medical products and practices that are not part of standard care. Standard care is what medical doctors, doctors of osteopathy, and allied health professionals, such as nurses and physical therapists, practice.

Complementary medicine is used together with standard medical care. An example is using acupuncture to help with side effects of cancer treatment.

Alternative medicine is used in place of standard medical care. An example is treating heart disease with chelation therapy (which seeks to remove excess metals from the blood) instead of using a standard approach.

The claims that CAM treatment providers make can sound promising. However, researchers do not know how safe many CAM treatments are or how well they work. Studies are underway to determine the safety and usefulness of many CAM practices.

To minimize the health risks of a CAM treatment

Discuss it with your doctor. It might have side effects or interact with other medicines
Find out what the research says about it
Choose CAM practitioners carefully
Tell all of your doctors and practitioners which CAM and standard treatments you use

About Us:
Mad Medicine was started to talk about many aspects of medicine, from medical school and premed, to nursing, PA, NP and much, much more. On our channel, we sit down and talk about relevant medical topics, issues that many medical professionals are facing, ways to be successful through your education and career, and (again) much, much more.

We started this channel as medical students in medical school in order to help premeds get into the medical schools of their choice. Whether you want to got to medical school in Harvard, or to a local medical school, we try to provide you with the best video content that will help you achieve your goal. Our medical school trips to become a medical student have to pertain to questions such as, “Do you need research for medical school?”, “Is Clinical Experience required for medical school” and much much more. Along with medical school tips and tricks, we also plan to provide you guys with videos that have to do with medical school requirements, medical school rankings, how to be a medical student, as well as fun (yet informative) sessions. Who knows, maybe we will even do medical school and medical student vlogs one day!

We are always looking for ways to grow our channel so if you ever have any ideas or want us to talk about specific topics, or heck, even if you have a guest you want us to talk to, leave a comment below! Thank you for the support!

    If nurses were important, why does a doctor earns multiples of what a nurse earns? A CRNA earns $ 212 while an anesthesiologist earns $414,000. The salary difference contradicts what you are telling us.

  20. Shay Hansen

    Nursing in not alternative medicine

  21. Musser's Bows, Boats and Science Channel

    strange calling these alternative health care careers, these are all main stream health careers.

  22. Pre Chiro

    What about Chiropractic?? Continues to be best kept secret regarding quality of life, quality of service, patient satisfaction, earning potential, lifestyle flexibility, happiness with clinical experience…..

  23. John Robert

    I feel like medical/clinical laboratory scientist/technologist are the backbone of health care. More then 70% of diagnosis and treatments of patients come from medical/clinical laboratory scientist/technologist. It is such an underrated career and far more overlooked then CNA’s. Not saying that CNA’s aren’t amazing because they are but CNA’s get more credit them CLS/MLS/MLT’s do. Plus it’s severely understaffed.

  27. Aminata Diallo

    Thank you for going so much in depth

  28. amal nair

    Hey, I am radiography technologist

  33. Salvador Amaya

  34. CRASHAWAKER !

  35. Astrid Cerrada

    It’s actually physician assistant not physician’s assistant …

  36. Avina Patel

    " not physician's assistant

  37. Justina Benson
