Samme's Corner

Samme is the Caduceus mascot who has spent many years observing medical behavior with a critical eye. Samme is never wrong - and he can prove it.

Dear Samme:

Is yawning contagious? I've checked several sources on the internet, but the answers confused me even more.  Can you help me get the right answer?

Signed,

Health Information for You

Thyme as Acne Remedy Looks Promising 

Largely due to its anti inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties, the herb thyme, found with other herbs in the produce section of most food stores, may well earn a place in the skin care section of your home. Alana Shalita, MD, chairman of the department of dermatology at SUNY Downstate Medical Center in New York calls the findings, "intriguing." 

Researcher at Leeds Metropolitan University in the U.K. steeped thyme, marigold, and myrrh in alcohol to create a tincture, and tested it on the bacteria that causes acne.  While all had a greater ani bacterial effect after five minutes, compared to just the alcohol, thyme was the most potent. In fact, the thyme tincture was more powerful than the standard concentrations of benzoyl peroxide, a well-known acne-fighting product. Read more here

EKGs Recommended for Sports

School Districts Recommending It

More school districts and organized sports programs are recommending that young athletes get an EKG as part of the standard "sports physical."

EKGs are not cheap- even our reduced Cash Price is $79 - but peace of mind is priceless. In support of this recommendation by multiple school districts, we have adjusted our sports physical examination to include an EKG-- all for $40. This is a limited-time offer, and is available for only organized sports physicals. Parents must bring the required form to the appointment to qualify for this unique service. 

Use our Appointments feature (above); this special sports physical is available at all three locations.
