"traditional" medicine they are idiots. If they are willing to work with “standard” doctors, why not? Most doctors I know went into the profession to help people and welcome any tools that will actually help. (They may demand scientific proof that the tools work instead of accepting blindly that all we need to do to become healthy is cure our cosmic aura.)
Another thing I hate is when some fruitcake comes up with the “silver bullet” he or she says will cure all cancer (peach pits, injecting camphor, etc) but refuses to go through testing saying that the medical profession just won't accept the true cure because it will destroy their profit margin etc. My father in law was suckered into going to a homeopath by his idiot brother when he had been feeling extremely tired for a long time. He asked the “doctor” if he had leukemia and was told flat out no and that he just needed to take a bunch of herbal bullshit and he would be fine. By the time he realized the quack was a complete idiot and went to a real doctor, it was too late the leukemia had advanced too far to do anything about.

being that if real doctors are allowed to test these "miracle cures," then it will destroy the quack/homeopath's profit margin. They'd just be harmless nutters if they weren't exploiting people so cynically for their own gain.
