Neil Nathan, MD: The Sensitive Patient | The Healing Grove Podcast

The Healing Grove Podcast

This week I am delighted for you to meet one of my mentors, Dr. Neil Nathan.

Neil Nathan, MD has been practicing medicine for over 50 years, and has been Board Certified in Family Practice and Pain Management and is a Founding Diplomate of the American Board of Integrative Holistic Medicine and a Founding Diplomate of ISEAI. He is also the author of several books, including Healing is Possible: New Hope for Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia, Persistent Pain, and Other Chronic Illnesses and Toxic: Heal Your Body from Mold Toxicity, Lyme Disease, Multiple Chemical Sensitivities, and Chronic Environmental Illness. In other words, for the past several decades, Dr. Nathan has been working tirelessly to bring an awareness that mold toxicity is a major contributing factor for patients with chronic illness.

His newest book, The Sensitive Patient’s Healing Guide, Top Experts Offer New Insights and Treatments for Environmental Toxins, Lyme Disease, and EMFs, was released just this past January, and it has already become one of my favorite (and most dog-eared) recommended books for my sickest and most chemically-sensitive patients.
