Dr. Paul's Fight for Medical Freedom!

The time has come to take our health and that of our children into our own hands. Gone are the days when you could blindly follow your doctor's recommendations or count on your health plan or some public health or government agency to put your interests first. We owe it to ourselves and our children to remain constantly educated and informed to make the best decisions for ourselves and our families.
Dr. Paul." 
Dr. Paul's commitment: Filled with love and faith, he is fearless, ready to conquer, expose the corruption and put an end to the tyranny the medical boards have been pouring on physicians across the country. 

The Vaccine-Friendly Plan

Dr. Paul's Safe and Effective Approach to Immunity and Health- from Pregnancy Through Your Child's Teen Years
Paul Thomas, M.D., is a vaccine-friendly doctor, knowledgeable about both the latest scientific research and the community's disease exposure, and respectful of a family's risk factors, health history, and concerns. In The Vaccine-Friendly Plan, he presents his proven approach to building immunity, a new protocol that limits a child's exposure to aluminum, mercury, and other neurotoxins while building overall good health. Based on the results from his pediatric practice of more that eleven thousand children, as well as data from other credible and scientifically minded medical doctors, Dr. Paul's vaccine-friendly protocol gives readers:
  • recommendations for a healthy pregnancy and childbirth
  • vital information about what to expect at every well child visit from birth through adolescence
  • a slower, evidence-based vaccine schedule that calls for only one aluminum-containing shot at a time
  • important questions to ask about your child's first few weeks, first years, and beyond
  • advice about how to talk to health care providers when you have concerns
  • the risks associated with opting out of vaccinations
  • a practical approach to common illnesses throughout the school years
  • simple tips and tricks for healthy eating and toxin-free living at any age
​Accessible and reassuring, The Vaccine-Friendly Plan presents a new standard for pediatric care, giving parents peace of mind in raising happy, healthy children.

The Addiction Spectrum

Opiate addiction is the single greatest public health crisis facing Americans—it affects over 2 million people and kills 115 of them every single day. 
Drug overdose is now the leading cause of death for Americans under fifty. Even as opiate addiction skyrockets, more people than ever before are hooked on alcohol, sedatives, cigarettes, and even screens.
The face and prevalence of addiction has changed and evolved, but our solutions to addiction are stuck in the past. No one understands this more than Dr. Paul Thomas, who recovered from alcohol addiction early in his career and founded one of the most effective rehabilitation centers for teens and young adults in his hometown of Portland, OR. 
​Using the best conventional medicine alongside the new science of alternative health, dr. Paul has treated thousands of patients with the life-saving solutions provided in the addiction spectrum.
