Deep Web Searching in Medicine List

Thank you Dean for the comprehensive list- for two different reasons:

1) I'm an advocate for patients to accept responsibilty for better understanding their health conditions and options.

and

2) I believe the modern health care provider must go far beyond just the required hours of continuing education to stay current with the everchanging landscape of health, science and medicine. To stand still is to fall behind.

My gratitude,

Dr. Ron Spallone, DC
