Dr. Leigh Erin Connealy, MD

The Biology of Hope and Healing
We are at a point in time where we are able to integrate worldviews of both conventional and integrative/functional medicine into an integrative whole person model that utilizes the best of both worlds without sacrificing one or the other. There is a place for chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery for treatment of cancer; but based on latest research, we know that there is a place for the mind and the spirit as well. Integrative and functional medicine incorporate and realize that healing, with a whole being platform or the seven pillars of health, takes place on all levels and includes spirituality, mind-body, immunity, nourishment, detox, lifestyle and targeted therapies.

DR. LEIGH ERIN CONNEALY, M.D., author of the life-saving book THE CANCER REVOLUTION, attended the University of Texas School of Public Health, and then attended the University of Health Sciences Chicago Medical School. She completed her post-graduate training at the Harbor/UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles, California. the-cancer-revolutionDr. Connealy soon realized that conventional medicine had very limited returns and did not always improve the health of her patients, who were hungry for alternative approaches for improving their health. This led her to study integrative and complementary therapies, and since then she has revolutionized the landscape of medicine. Dr. Connealy feels that we must treat the patient with the disease and not the disease of the patient. She has discovered that many factors contribute to the disease process; therefore, many modalities must be used to reverse it. Dr. Connealy began practicing medicine in 1986. In 1992, she founded the Center for New Medicine in Irvine, California, where she serves as Medical Director. In 2009, she opened Cancer Center for Healing.
