Description

Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) combines the best of traditional and non-traditional medicine to provide the highest probability of a successful result. The measures in which CAM can be applied to traditional medicine sound simplistic today but a number of years ago this was not the case. Today, it is unusual to find a urology department or section that is not dedicated to some aspect of CAM. In fact, it could be argued that urology, more than any other discipline in medicine presently, is leading the way in determining which CAM treatments are effective or ineffective.
