Objective: To determine genera[ attitudes and approaches to complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) among physicians who care for gynecologic oncology patients. Methods: Surveys were mailed to members of the Society of Gynecologic Oncologists and the Michigan Oncology Group. Physicians were asked to rate their general attitude toward CAM. Results: Surveys were obtained from 462 physicians. Gynecologic oncologists and female physicians were more likely to have positive attitudes toward CAM, and to believe that clinical care should integrate conventional and CAM practices, compared with other oncologists and mate physicians. Conclusion: Discrepancies exist among oncologists regarding attitude and use of CAM in their practice. Education of physicians regarding the safety and efficacy of CAM modalities may ultimately improve patient care. (C) 2008 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics.
