Rebecca Shatsky: Do not ask your doctor to order labs your naturopath or integrative doc thinks you should have
Rebecca Shatsky shared on Twitter:
”PSA: Do not ask your doctor to order labs your naturopath or integrative doc thinks you should have. That’s insurance fraud. For everything a doc orders there must be a legitimate diagnosis/reason. If your naturopath wants them they can order them.”
