Physician, author and columnist Andrew Weil is one of the world’s foremost authorities on health, wellness and integrative medicine. His books, PBS specials and frequent appearances on Larry King Live have inspired people everywhere to live healthier lives. And his revolutionary work as a physician has triggered a profound change in the practice of medicine.
Named one of “the world’s 100 most influential people” by TIME, Dr. Weil is the Director of the Program in Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona’s College of Medicine. The program was the first to include courses on alternative therapies, mind/body interactions, healing and other subjects not currently emphasized in medical education.
His 10 books (including the international bestsellers Healthy Aging, Spontaneous Healing and 8 Weeks to Optimum Health) have sold over six million copies; five have been #1 New York Times bestsellers. He is currently working on a new book about the American healthcare system.
As editorial director for the website, www.drweil.com, Dr. Weil oversees the direction and content of one of the top resources for healthy living. Author of a monthly column in Prevention Magazine, he has partnered with such companies as Origins, Miraval and Nature’s Path Foods promoting healthy products and services. Dr. Weil has been a guest on Oprah, Good Morning America, NPR’s Fresh Air, The Today Show and many other shows. He received his A.B. and M.D. degrees from Harvard University.
