From Nayana:
“Working in holistic health and be part of my patients healing journey is very rewarding. I am privileged to work with most beautiful people, who are motivated and wanting to make a difference to their health and contribute to the society. As an integrative GP I am lucky to apply patient centered health approach with each patient I see, and they challenge me to think outside the box, there is never a dull day. This is very special and this is why I enjoy working in integrative/holistic/chronic disease management so much.
