Healthcare & Social Media - with Dr. David Kipper, MD

We are conducting a series of interviews on social media and healthcare, from traditional medicine to natural holistic practices.  Can social media have a positive impact on our healthcare?  How are physicians and practioners utilizing social media in their practice?

The Addiction Solution introduces a revolutionary scientific breakthrough – a stunning new medical paradigm that finally frees patients from the on-again off-again treadmill of addiction.

Yes, it’s now been scientifically proven that addiction is an inherited, neuro-chemical disease originating in brain chemistry, determined by genetics, and triggered by stress.

The Addiction Solution is a complete consumer guide to a world made brand new by the enormous – some say “miraculous” – paradigm shift in the treatment of addiction.
