Hi, I’m Ed Pomicter
I practiced anesthesiology for 20 years, but came to see that the practice of medicine had lost its way. Physicians have relinquished their scientific and moral authority to corporate interests. So I decided to leave big-medicine and open the medical practice that I would want to go to. My goal is to help you correct your health challenges and achieve your health goals rather than mask symptoms. I work with and for YOU and nobody else.
I am constantly working to improve my understanding of the science and art of healing and health, continually challenging my beliefs and altering or replacing them when presented with better information and evidence. Corporate medicine is not agile and has vested interests in hospitals, medications, testing, repeat visits, research funding, technology, etc. If you want a different experience, one that focuses on figuring out how to make your health better through actually being healthy, then you too need to step outside the “medical care” paradigm.
My wife and I have a grown daughter and son. We own an organic spice company that has been running for more than a decade. We have four dogs, two pampered barn cats, chickens, turkeys and cattle. We garden. We put up our own food for the winter. I was a carpenter before I was a doctor and pride myself as being a better-than-jack-of-all-trades. I am a regular guy with many blessings and many gifts.
My Approach
I start from the belief that we are all created in perfection and that it is our nature to be healthy. Our spiritual and physical beings are amazing creations with a great drive to compensate for the insults that we receive and with a great ability to heal. You are not born with a medication deficiency. You are not born with a supplement deficiency. You are not born deficient of anything.
internal environment
At its most fundamental level, our body metabolizes food into structures or energy. Our mitochondria are the organelles which process the fuel inputs to produce water, energy, light and electromagnetic forces, not only powering our bodies but also intimately linking us to our environment and coordinating our cellular functions. Metabolic dysfunction in the form of poor nutrient absorption or handling and mitochondrial dysfunction limiting energy production are the foundational causes of the vast majority of disease. We need to fix the foundation in order to build health and fix disease.
external environment
Until recent times, we have lived in an intimate relationship with the raw environment. We are attuned to live in a rhythm with the world around us: light and dark, summer and winter, hot and cold, feast and famine. The skin, eyes and alimentary tract are not simple barriers to the external environment. Rather, they are our interface with the environment and critical in providing coordinated and coherent information for healthy function of our beings. We can function like a sputtering and backfiring jalopy or like a precision tuned race car depending on the choices that we make to coordinate or to confuse our systems.
