Healing involves more than undergoing a medical procedure or taking a pill.  Increasingly, health care systems like Baptist Health South Florida are offering integrative therapies such as acupuncture, meditation, healthy foods, art therapy and pet therapy to meet the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of their patients.
In this episode, host Jonathan Fialkow, M.D., explores the impacts integrative medicine can bring to patients' well being with expert guests from across Baptist Health.

Guests:
·      Beatriz Currier, M.D, medical director of the Cancer Patient Support Center at Miami Cancer Institute.
·      Thi Squire, community garden manager with the Grow to Heal Program at Homestead Hospital
·      Wally Majors, dog therapy volunteer at Bethesda Hospital East.
