In medicine and healing it has long been known that real learning comes by doing—hence doctors' residency and naturopaths' preceptorship programs. Yet for those wishing to offer botanical and nutritional medicine as primary therapies while integrating wholistic medicine, or "healthy medicine," with conventional medicine, experts with whom to train have been hard to find. There simply are not enough clinicians with expertise in this form of healing, despite the fact that more and more patients are presenting themselves with increasingly complicated and often advanced states of disease. Patients are battling a myriad of negative drug interactions and side effects, and they are looking for help from someone like you.
In response to this demand, two of North America's most highly respected practitioners join together to offer a learning experience that will change the way you practice and enable you to consistently achieve positive long-term results. This program is designed to teach you how to most optimally serve your patients by using Donnie Yance's proprietary healthcare model, the Eclectic Triphasic Medical System (ETMS).
The program will provide you with the knowledge and hands-on skills required to fully integrate key tools and meaningful insights critical to your success with your patients. It is an invitation to access the latest research on botanicals and nutrition, dietary supplementation, multilayer formulating, protocol development, and more, all within the broad scope of this unique system. You will learn more in a weeklong practicum than in years of reading books and attending lectures!
- Oncologists and Oncology Professionals
- Medical Doctors, Naturopathic Doctors
- Acupuncturists, Oriental Medicine Doctors
- Nurse Practitioners, Registered Nurses
- Registered Clinical Herbalists
- Certified Nutritionists
- Medical School Faculty
The educational format includes lectures with visual presentations and ample time for questions. A clinical resource manual including presentation handouts, additional literature and references will be provided.
Dear Donnie,
Thank you for all the great updates on your research monographs and new studies. Barbara and I are totally amazed at all you do for us and our patients in this and in so many other fabulous ways.
It was so wonderful to have finally been able to attend your Level 1 Clinical Training Program. Barbara and I were totally blown away with the amount of love, energy and team work which was put in to making it such a comprehenisve, meaningful and focussed program. We have returned to our practice here in Durham with renewed inspiration, knowledge and enthusiasm to devote to helping all our patients - including both those with cancer as well as everyone else. You have given us a most beautiful combination of tools to work with. And we are very grateful to you for these amazing gifts which are the fruit of your love, dedication and research into cancer and other chronic diseases. We just wish we could have absorbed it all instantly so we could put it all to use, but, alas, we will have to plunge into the notes and tapes and dig out the gems to share one by one. But it is our joy to do so!
You as well as every one of your hand-picked team poured their hearts and souls into making the Clinical Training a beautiful experience that Barbara and I will always cherish and continue to learn from. We look forward to working with you throughout the year and to seeing you again in September for Level 2.
We love you,
John & Barbara
