4. As said, he includes alternative medicine in his bill
but that includes things like chiropractic, massage, using herbs and vitamin supplements, all of which are used and supported by millions of Americans. I've read about the bill on his website, and don't recall seeing homeopathy listed per se. What I do know is that his focus is in using all methods for healing people, not just aleopathic medicine. He also stresses that alternatives should be an option, but not forced on anyone. Right now, insurance companies are dictating what an MD can and cannot do for a patient, and it is not always in the patient's best interests. Dennis makes sure that the docs are back in control of things, and that cutting edge treatments are not ignored.

Don't let the mainstream media paint Dennis as a "woo-woo". Look at his record in the House, look at his position papers at his website--they are practical and down to earth.
