FEATURED AUTHOR: Bernie Siegel, MD

Dr. Bernie Siegel www.berniesiegelmd.com

Dr. Siegel, who prefers to be called Bernie, not Dr. Siegel, was born in Brooklyn, NY.  His surgical training took place at Yale New Haven Hospital, West Haven Veteran’s Hospital and the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh. He retired from practice as an assistant clinical professor of surgery at Yale of general and pediatric surgery in 1989 to speak to patients and their caregivers.

In 1978 he originated Exceptional Cancer Patients, a specific form of individual and group therapy utilizing patients’ drawings, dreams, images and feelings. The physical, spiritual and psychological benefits which followed led to his desire to make everyone aware of his or her healing potential. He realized exceptional behavior is what we are all capable of.

Woody Allen once said, “If I had one wish it would be to be somebody else.” Bernie’s wish was to be a few inches taller. His work has been such a growth experience that he is now a few inches taller. His prediction is that in the next decade the role of consciousness, spirituality, non-local healing, body memory and heart energy will all be explored as scientific subjects.    

His web site www.BernieSiegelMD.com displays his books and tapes and can also connect you with his exceptional cancer patients site which has his public speaking schedule and information about therapy groups.
