English term or phrase: as far away from holistic medical practice as one can get.
At Bastyr University, a very important part of the ND student's clinical education is the emphasis on the history of the patient. Medical students are taught that the majority of diagnoses can be made from listening to patients and asking the right questions. Another major constituent of diagnosis is a complete physical exam of the patient. Laboratory testing is taught to be used only as required. That is, to confirm or rule out a diagnosis. An important guideline taught by our chief medical officer about laboratory testing is: If the results of a laboratory test may change the way you treat a patient, then it is valid to order. If not, then don't order it and waste your patient's time and money. In this author's opinion, prescribing therapy based solely on the results of laboratory testing is as far away from holistic medical practice as one can get
