Course description
Anderson Review: Clinical Science
NEW format: Online recorded modules of lectures along with access to all Powerpoint files to make study and viewing of the entire review accessible from your computer any time you need it.
Clinical Science Review Outline
The current format includes a twenty-plus module series of presentations arranged in a case / organ / complaint format based on the clinical science format used by NABNE / NPLEX. For each complaint / body system (cardio, neurology…) area the following topic areas will be focused on:
  • Clinical and physical diagnosis
  • Pharmacology – WITH 2018 UPDATE
  • Laboratory diagnosis
  • Imaging and electrodiagnosis
  • Basic nutrition
  • Basic pharmacogonosy
  • Emergency medicine / emergency obstetrics
  • Minor surgery concepts
  • Concepts in pediatric cases
  • Injection / IV therapy concepts
  • Nutrient and biochemical agents
(For example: as conditions in cardiology are discussed their clinical presentation, pharmacology basic nutrition, laboratory concepts etc… will be covered in the same unit – just as you will encounter them in the cases on the board exams.)
The feedback from students at the various naturopathic programs is that this format assists them greatly in forming a core of clinical concepts around which they can build other study areas (homeopathy, botanical medicine etc.).
The organ system sections focus on the diagnosis / DDX, presentation, laboratory and imaging diagnosis and pharmacology as appropriate.

Instructor(s)/Speaker(s)
Paul Anderson
Dr. Anderson has spent the past twenty years involved in teaching and research into biochemical physiology as well as that same time period in patient care. Just because “SNP Analysis” is a seemingly new thing do not think that some experienced physicians have not been employing these therapies for quite a long time. The ability to assess the genome is simply a wonderful addition to our understanding of the process! Dr. Anderson will use his extensive teaching, clinical and research background to bring these sessions to clinically relevant life.
