I became interested in mind-body medicine during my residency, noting the power of words on patients and how semantics affected expectancy and patient response to various medical situations. After completing my medical residency & fellowship, I began to focus once again on my undergraduate training in Psychobiology. Of particular interest was maximizing treatment success, utilizing mind-body techniques. Over the years, I've supplemented my treatment protocols with additional modalities that further complement the treating of patients who suffer from the debilitating symptoms of IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome). While I spent many years seeing patients who suffered from various issues, the bulk of my practice always consisted of working with IBS patients.IBS1®️ is an accumulation of my decades of research, study, trial, and effort in working with patients with IBS. It is a dedication to addressing the pandemic of Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Estimates place the affected at 10-24% (USA). Most disturbing is that the level of patient debilitation is a subset of 25 to 33% of this population. At IBS1®,️ we focus only on helping curb & even eradicate our patient's negative IBS symptoms. This focus includes not only physical symptoms but also the associated negative emotional & consequential manifestations.EmergedHealth™ has morphed into a program, including patient education, lifestyle medicine, nutritional counseling, ancient science, and stress-reduction techniques. EMERGEDhealth™ is an acronym for "Evidence-based Mind-gut Enteric Restoration Granting Enhanced Digestion." This multifaceted evidence-based approach has proven to be highly successful.With my undergrad degree in Psychobiology, I genuinely appreciate how every thought leads to a chemical reaction in the body. I've spent years studying, researching, and testing the effects of a healthy lifestyle and mindset on overall health and illness. Because of my profound interest in this, I created EmergedHealth™, which has proven to be a highly effective approach to alleviating the symptoms of IBS.There are few resources where IBS patients can turn to that offer drug-free, test free, & non-invasive evidence-based medical techniques. With the assistance of my co-founder, we are finalizing the porting of EmergedHealth™ to an online semi-live format. This change brings the healing capacity of EmergedHealth™ to all who suffer from the symptoms of IBS. Since IBS is a syndrome where patients are most often left with nowhere to turn, this brings a ray of hope to the countless millions suffering unnecessarily.
