Docs complete Weil's Web-based program by ANNE T. DENOGEAN, Tucson Citizen

The University of Arizona's alternative medicine program graduated the first class from its Web-based fellowship Thursday. Forty-three physicians from the United States, Japan, Canada and Puerto Rico completed the two-year program, which is the nation's first Web-based educational fellowship in alternative or "integrative" medicine. The UA Program in Integrative Medicine, directed by noted alternative medicine pioneer Dr. Andrew Weil, was established in 1994. Three years later, it began offering residential fellowships, bringing in doctors from around the country for two years at a time to learn and practice integrative medicine. The residential fellowship to date has graduated 12 fellows, as well as four pediatric fellows.
