Foreword

“Using the shared standard of scientific validation and focused on the shared goal of optimizing patient wellness and outcomes, the Textbook of Naturopathic Oncology is a truly landmark contribution to oncology… Both Dr. Gurdev Parmar and Dr. Tina Kaczor are well-respected founders of the field of naturopathic oncology, established naturopathic oncology practitioners, and are sought after internationally for their clinical acumen. I can think of no others who are more qualified to offer a textbook on naturopathic oncology… Suffice it to say that this textbook will provide every practitioner of integrative oncology with a trustworthy guide to safe and effective practice. This will not gather dust on a bookshelf, but rather will become care worn, dog-eared and fingerprinted with its many uses. I know that I will have this within arm’s reach during my clinical consultations and that I will be a better practitioner because of it. I am deeply grateful to Dr. Gurdev Parmar for writing this book and Dr. Tina Kaczor for her meticulous editing. Creating this text was years in the making, and it shows.”

“Dr. Gurdev Parmar has brought naturopathic oncology into the 21st century. This text will take its place beside such classics of medical literature as DeVita, Hellman and Rosenberg’s Cancer: Principles & Practice of Oncology. A tremendous value to all those who are willing to overcome their long-standing prejudices and work together for the common good of cancer patients.”

Ralph W. Moss
PhD, Author of 10 books including The Cancer Industry

“The future of optimal cancer care is now. For too long, an artificial barrier between cancer treatment and strengthening the health of the patient with cancer has prevented the best outcomes. This excellent textbook by experts in integration of conventional and natural oncology is a critical resource for every clinician caring for patients with cancer.”

Joseph Pizzorno
