Question:
The Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine at U of Arizona is leading the transformation of health care by training through evidence-based, sustainable, integrative approaches. Would you agree?
— Demetra Stamus
Answer:
He trains evidence-based sustainable integrated approach. Absolutely. Actually he was just on the Myam Ballek um, podcast and I was just listening to him last night and I also worked with him when I was at Columbia Presbyterian. He's awesome. And he is teaching clinicians how to use these integrative approaches. So Dmitri, absolutely. So somebody who's been trained by Andy Weill can answer questions like, okay, like the, the previous question, I need something for my GERD and also my pre-diabetes and I needed to be anti-inflammatory. An integrated practitioner would know it like that 'cause they have more at their dispense than just the food themselves. They have, they know how to use herbal remedies and they know how to use other modalities like Chinese medicine and acupuncture and all of that. So 10 thumbs up for Andy Weill.
