What Others Are Saying
Working closely with other traditions has been both educational and incredibly empowering. I can’t master everything, but I don’t have to: I can refer patients to a trusted friend and colleague and then together we can make a strong therapeutic alliance.”
- Peter Lio, MD (Program Chair)
Working with other integrative practitioners helps provide a much broader and well-rounded treatment plan. It allows me to focus on what I am really good at knowing that my patients are getting great comprehensive care.”
Apple Bodemer, MD (Program Chair)
Integrative medicine is not simply integrative different perspective and it beautifully integrates different practitioners and practice modalities so that we support our patients with our mutual knowledge of therapy and desire to help the patient.”
Raja Sivamani, MD MS AP (Program Chair)

Are You Feeling Burnt Out, Uninspired, And Overwhelmed In Practice?
While exploring integrative medicine options for your patients can enhance your practice and patient care, many individuals studying these modalities will try them out for themselves and have their own new and exciting experiences.
"It’s a very energizing community. Going through these programs you will make amazing changes for yourself. I have made changes to my diet, to my exercise, to my exercise routine, to meditation, to the way I just treat myself and the way I think about my health in a different way..”
- Steven Daveluy, MD (IDCP Alumni)

Have your patients come in asking about alternative treatment options?
"Being an integrative practitioner brings back the “Art of Medicine.” As an integrative practitioner, you will be able to regain that creativity and tailor a treatment plan to each patient’s needs with a more holistic and individualized approach compared to “one size fits all.”
InYoung Kim, MD PhD
Many patients are now using complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) therapies, whether they disclose that in clinic or not, and are seeking practitioners who are knowledgeable with regards to taking an integrative approach with treatment options.
However, current dermatology education does not include an evidence-based curriculum around diet, nutrition, mind-body approaches, stress management, botanicals, skin product ingredients, or nutritional supplements despite patient demand.
When patients ask about topics not covered in conventional medical schools or training programs, practitioners are often left to look up the medical research on their own with no centralized, compiled, and vetted summary of the information. The IDCP is an opportunity to gain the confidence, skills, and support network necessary to incorporate a patient-centric and scientific approach to developing an integrative approach in your practice.
