Medical and legal experts are warning of so-called "CAM creep" when GP moves into complementary medicine go too far.
The warning was made in the Journal of law and Medicine by a panel of experts who analysed nine recent cases where Australian doctors were disciplined for misconduct involving integrative medicine.
"At the extremes of CAM-creep, doctors completely abandon medical practice in favour of CAM-based treatment modalities," they wrote.
