RALEIGH, NC, July 22, 2011 (Press-News.org) As part of his continuing health series, John C. Pittman, MD, of the Carolina Center for Integrative Medicine (CCIM), will present "Using Integrative Medicine for Cancer Control and Treatment" on Tuesday, July 26th from 7:00-8:00PM. This free, 60-minute presentation will be held at CCIM's office located at 4505 Fair Meadow Lane, Suite 111 in Raleigh.
"Cancer, in most cases, does not present a single 'target' for a magic bullet. Instead, it is a disease of multiple targets, all of which must be approached from multiple angles", explains Dr. Pittman. His 60-minute presentation will discuss key, research-based strategies for optimizing wellness, healing, and long-range remission maintenance after a diagnosis of cancer. It will also focus on the biochemistry of cancer, as well as innovative therapies and lifestyle strategies that will bolster a patient's response to treatments and help keep cancer at bay over the long term.
Dr. Pittman is a fourth generation physician and has long been dedicated to the research-based integration of alternative, complementary, and conventional treatments for achieving optimal health and maximizing the natural healing capabilities of the body. He received his B.S. in biology in 1980 and completed studies for a master's degree in biochemistry and microbiology at the University of Georgia in 1982. He received his medical degree from Mercer University in Macon, Georgia in 1986 and attended the Pediatric Residency Program at NC Baptist Hospital in Winston-Salem, North Carolina with an emphasis in Preventive Medicine. Later, while serving as Emergency Department Director at hospitals in Rocky Mount and Southport, NC, he began exploring ways to combine conventional medicine with nutrition, botanicals, and other natural therapies as an integral part of clinical medical practice.
Since founding the Carolina Center in 1994, Dr. Pittman has further enhanced his understanding of integrative medicine through clinical training at the Autism Research Institute and the International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society's Physician Training Program. A long-time student of biological detoxification strategies, he is certified by the American Board of Clinical Metal Toxicology. He has lectured frequently at the UNC School of Medicine's Program on Integrative Medicine and presently serves as a member of the state's Vector Disease Task Force and as President of the North Carolina Integrative Medicine Society.
