Editor´s Note: This is the third commentary from the JACM column partnership with the Osher Collaborative for IntegrativeMedicine. These quarterly columns from leaders of the seven prominent academic centers that constitute the Collaborative are meant to stimulate and enliven thinking about the paradigm, practice, and policy to advance integrative health. In this column, two members at the Osher Center for Integrative Medicine in Chicago, Illinois and San Francisco, California, take on a challenge pioneering field face as they move from the Wild West into professional formation. Their focus is on the mosaic of integrative practices of medical doctors. The lead author hails from an integrative medicine base that is known for its clinical program. Osher Northwestern executive director Melinda Ring, MD, FACP, Clinical Associate Professor of Integrative Medicine, is also a member of the Board of Directors of the American Board of Integrative Medicine, that has set the prevailing standard for board certification. Ring´s coauthor, Sandy Newmark, MD, FAAP, holds the position of Osher Foundation Endowed Chair in Clinical Programs in Integrative Medicine at the UCSF Osher Center. Newmark is also head of that Center´s Pediatric Integrative Neurodevelopmental Program. -John Weeks, Editor-in-Chief, JACM.
