It is not recommended to impulsively abandon your doctor (unless you suspect him or her of being a demented chemicals pusher). Finding a doctor who is open-minded and willing to support you with your diet and your developing interest in alternative therapy would be ideal (although you may have a job finding one).
Be cautious and try to be discerning. For example, in France the medical establishment has seemingly introduced alternative therapy into its programme. However, many of these mainstream doctors use alternative therapy as a secondary, 'less effective and slower' means to help the patient.
Their methods are questionable in that they often liberally prescribe pharmaceutical products on the one hand and on the other stick a few needles in people as a lame gesture to oriental medicine.
Candida sufferers, unaware of the truth of their condition, are frequently prescribed antibiotics for their health problems, the very same products that caused their illness in the first place.
Most 'natural' therapies that you find in the average French pharmacy are, on the whole, of a poor quality and are often ineffective. The choice of natural therapies that they do offer does not include most of the supplements that are extremely successful in rapidly getting rid of candida overgrowth. It is likely that they do this is in order to destroy people's faith in immunotherapy (naturotherapy) and to have them return to the pharmaceuticals counter.
