dr. ronald hoffman, MD saved my friend's life back in '88. he was HIV positive. when he went to dr. hoffman his t-cells were 160. after a few months of weekly ozone therapy his t-cells were up in the 550 range.
ozone therapy was not FDA approved yet dr. hoffman did it. he also did chelation therapy and IV vitamins.
my primary care doc who retired at age 79 also did chelation and IV vitamins. he believed in vitamins and herbs too but if he felt you needed an antibiotic he'd prescribe it. because he was a DO he also did spinal manipulation. when my mom was here visiting she was in terrible pain. couldn't even hook her bra or bend to tie her shoes. he sent her for x-rays. she had arthritis but after some traction and a few spinal manipulations she was like a new woman. he was also the kind of doc i could call on his cell phone. for some reason DO's don't do spinal manipulation anymore, but naturopaths do.
