‘Mind-Body-Spirit’: Holistic Otolaryngologists Have a Different Perspective

Although circumstance might have initially led these three otolaryngologists to discover a holistic philosophy, today they all actively continue to educate themselves. They all attend meetings and read current literature. Dr. Sciacca participates in diverse medical organizations, such as the American Academy of Environmental Medicine and the Association of American Indian Physicians, and Dr. Judkins finds the online courses of the University of Arizona particularly useful. Dr. Asher keeps in mind what he learned while in residency at the University of Iowa: Be observers of the world, and see what works and what doesn’t.
