Question What the heck do you call them?

It is on the tip of my tongue. I am in the market for a new primary care doctor. The type of doctor I want is on the tip of my tongue, but I can’t for the life of me remember what this type of doctor is called. This doctor is an MD, but they consider more holistic solutions. What the heck do you call them?

Give that woman her money. Osteopathy, not to be confused with orthopedic.

There are many MDs taking up hollistic medicine to complement their orthodox Meds, now. When asked why, they say because their patients demand it.

It's called cover your butts..
