Medicine's Best-Kept Secret

William Maxfield, M.D. By Wednesday, 03 January 2018 04:38 PM EST Current | Bio | Archive

I still consider the use of hyperbaric oxygen in medicine the best kept-secret in medicine today.

For example, in the United States we have 14 approved uses for hyperbaric oxygen therapy. My book covers many of these applications.

There is some growing documentation of the value of hyperbaric oxygen therapy here in Florida.

I understand there is a bill being introduced to our house of congress that mandates the VA to increase medical coverage for vets including hyperbaric oxygen for PTSD and concussion injuries.

The story of Valarie Greene who had a stroke at the age of 30, couldn’t walk or talk and now with hyperbaric oxygen she is a spokesperson for the Stroke Association which recognizes the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

My book, “The Oxygen Cure,” is also available on Amazon.com right now.
