In this clip (4 of 7), Dr. Snyderman argues for a change in focus in thinking about disease and the burdens of disease.
This clip is part of a lecture, “Integrative Medicine: A Foundation for Prospective Health Care,” by Ralph Snyderman, MD, Chancellor Emeritus for Health Affairs at Duke University and James B. Duke Professor of Medicine at the Duke University School of Medicine. Dr. Snyderman offers an overview of contemporary health care, identifies some problems in that system, and proposes a paradigm shift to a prospective and personalized approach. Integrative medicine, he says, may make helpful contributions. This lecture, delivered at NIH in 2005, is part of the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine Online Continuing Education Series. Free CME/CEU credit is available to health professionals (see http://nccam.nih.gov/training/videolectures).
