Patient-centered wellness is considered the wave of the future, but the philosophies and methodologies are also deeply rooted in the past, in healing traditions such as acupuncture, osteopathic manipulation, and naturopathic medicine. Today we speak with two physicians who are integrating these traditions into their practices and are helping patients create their own wellness path. Join our conversations with Dr. Ralph Thieme, Dr. Richard Maurer, and Dr. Maurer’s longtime patient, Patty Hagge, and learn more about their unique approach to patient-centered care.
