Salmon John MD

I live with and care for my father who is 80 y/​o as I write this, and Dr. Salmon is his physician (he’s a family doctor). At 80, you go to the Dr. every couple of months, and I always go in with my dad, because I am usually the one describing symptoms, asking questions or keeping track of any treatment.
Dr. Salmon always takes his time, listens well and his treatment has kept Dad in as good of health as we could expect for his age and conditions. He is quiet, dignified, kind.
At one point a friend gave my dad a gift of consultation and treatment from a holistic healer in Ozark, because his gout was so bad and Dad’s allergic to the gout medicine Salmon prescribed. After 3 weeks under this woman’s care he was weak as a kitten, curled up in his chair very nearly unresponsive, and I thought he was literally dying. No exaggeration, I was scared to death. I called Salmons office, he was back to me in 20 minutes and told me to get rid of that crap she had him on and the diet too. He said” you let him eat whatever the hell he wants — watch the salt”.
Dad perked up that day, improved steadily.
Hmm, not sure if this is so much a review for Salmon as an indictment of a certain lady holistic healer in Ozark, lol.
