A Message for Doctors

From James Smith, DC, CCN, DACBN,

"My doctor doesn't spend time listening to me". Have you ever heard that said? Sure you have. Now, you can use internet technology to be sure that statement is not made about you. Read on.

Online health assessment has arrived. Surfing the web you will find an assortment of limited self-assessments for conditions such as elevated cholesterol, cardiovascular disease, biological age and the like. Unfortunately, they are not comprehensive. There are even some sites that offer biased assessments designed to arrive at conclusions which will sell supplements also offered on the same web sites.

The assessment that we have developed and share with you here on eHealthAssessment.com is, to my knowledge, the web's only truly comprehensive, unbiased assessment from an alternative medicine perspective. It is not designed to sell supplements. Its only objective is to provide you and your patients with an exhaustive compilation of questions the depth of which you will probably not take the time to ask in your consultations. It concludes with a risk assessment or "index" addressing the body systems and conditions that are frequently overlooked or not considered significant by busy doctors.

I have successfully used the questionnaires that form the framework of this online assessment in my practice for 35 years. Probably, you have used something similar, as well. They have been upgraded and perfected over the years resulting in the comprehensive assessment you have before you. This assessment has never let me down. Though not considered a diagnostic tool, when follow-up labs are performed to confirm its conclusions, it is consistently accurate. Whenever possible, I have my patients complete it online and bring it for their first consultation. It saves me interview time and invariably saves the one office visit which was previously required for the patient to take home and complete paper questionnaires. That saves the patients money and they like that. Once you have incorporated its use into your assessment protocols, you will be delighted with the accurate information and convenience it provides. It enables you to spend more quality time talking and examining your patients.

Please review all the pages of this site for details. I will be happy to answer any questions you may have. Use the "Contact Us" page to get in touch. Thank you.
