 Jokes aside, an empowered patient with a passion to recover wins most of the time. Note: You can go directly to important links right below the following paragraphs. We encourage you to go through each one of those sites, and your healing may be a few links away. [Please, read all disclaimers in this site and the other sites linked from here]. QuickDoctors.Com [Beta] provides free tools for chronic disease management using alternative treatments that go hand in hand with main stream medical methodologies. We hope to empower the patients so that they feel they are the owner of the healing process. This is a free educational service, and comes with no guarantee, and always work-in-progress, can at best be called at its beta version. Please, consult your doctors before any changes. While main stream medical treatments are heavily funded, and have well established protocols, most of the holistic treatments lack such protocols. They are seriously under funded not attracting always the best of the brains in the modern days. On the other hand, they are produced by collective knowledge, skills, and observations of thousand of years, and may be more effective in chronic situations. With this dilemma in mind, how do you manage a holistic treatment with so many options? How do you find the right doctors or service providers at the right time and in the right sequence? How do you find evidence based treatments? How long do you wait to see if the treatment is effective? What is the efficacy of a treatment in the long run? QuickDoctors.Com is a platform where patients can share there experiences under strict privacy, and help one another in their journey towards healing. Like a person with a hammer is always looking for a nail, most of these holistic providers have certain treatment they know very well, and they will try to use it in most cases. You being the patient and owner of your sickness must have the final decision how you want to try particular treatments - in what sequence, using what kind of doses. You need to have the intuition to say "No" to a therapy and move on to the next one. This is not an easy task. You need to have an understanding about the high level treatment options. QuickDoctors.Com will give you the tools and may be the confidence to accept or reject particular holistic treatments, and move towards real healing. One can divide the holistic providers into the following loose categories. We have added the links to the providers in each category, however they are not exhaustive like the categories themselves. Before using any medication for any chronic condition, research each of the following links. Look for healing with a lot of passion, and an attitude of "never ever give up".
