Dr. H’s Advanced Integrative Gastroenterology class offered a unique and thoughtful integration of Eastern and Western medical approaches to gastrointestinal health, providing a comprehensive understanding of both traditional and modern perspectives. Dr. H is extremely knowledgeable, not only in conventional GI medicine but also in holistic and alternative therapies. His ability to bridge the gap between these two worlds was both impressive and inspiring. The course was thoroughly planned, well-structured, and delivered with clarity and purpose. Each session built upon the last, creating a cohesive and engaging learning journey. His dedication to evidence-based practice while remaining open to the wisdom of traditional healing systems encouraged critical thinking and respectful dialogue, making the course both intellectually stimulating and practically valuable.

Dr. H’s GI Disorders course was one of the most comprehensive and clinically relevant CEU programs I’ve attended. The integration of Eastern Medicine, biomedicine, and functional medicine provided a well-rounded framework for approaching complex GI conditions. The case-based learning and practical protocols helped me feel more confident in addressing red flag symptoms, recommending safe herbal formulas, and supporting patients with personalized dietary and metabolic strategies. This course has meaningfully expanded my ability to deliver truly integrative gastrointestinal care.” – Soojin

Nothing

Everything 100% well done.

The time was a bit difficult as it cut into summer activities, but I would imagine it would be difficult to find a time that works for all.

I prefer a shorter number of days because sometimes I may miss a weekend if it is a three weekend course.
