Understanding the Patient Experience With Alternative Health Care: The Example of The Wholistic Health Center

Abstract

dc:description

The focus of this research is the patient experience at and use of services in a (w)holistic health care setting. Although generally acknowledged to be increasing, there is little documentation of the patient experience and patient understanding in a whole person care setting. This research examines and describes the patient dimension exploring the social nature of health and illness as patient and physician interact and contributing to the understanding of a relatively new arena of health care delivery.
