In
considering
what
to
write
about
our
experience
with
Dr.
Ahvie
Herskowitz,
a
quote
from
Nelson
Mandela
came
to
mind:
“A
good
head
and
a
good
heart
is
always
a
formidable
combination.”
When
I
first
brought
my
elderly
mother
to
Anatara,
she
had
degenerative
lung
and
heart
conditions
that
I
felt
could
benefit
from
a
more
holistic
and
integrative
approach.
Dr.
Herskowitz’s
experience
in
cardiology
is
what
motivated
me
to
bring
my
mother
for
visits
from
Fresno
to
San
Francisco
see
him.
We
were
not
disappointed.
After
getting
her
extensive
medical
records
from
Kaiser
and
filling
out
a
detailed
medical
history
form,
we
met
with
Dr.
Herskowitz
for
our
first
appointment
for
about
two
hours.
He
skillfully
interviewed
her,
delving
into
her
emotional
history
as
well
as
discussing
her
medical
issues.
He
then
did
a
physical
exam.
From
this
he
devised
a
plan
of
comprehensive
care
that
included
appointments
with
the
naturopath
and
Chinese
herbalist
on
the
Anatara
staff.
What
I
can
say
is
that
instead
of
being
on
a
downward
trend
with
periodic
trips
to
the
hospital
emergency
room,
her
health
stabilized
and
she
has
energy
that
gives
her
a
good
quality
of
life.
For
this,
we
are
extremely
grateful.
I
also
had
an
unexpected
medical
crisis
that
Dr.
Herskowitz
guided
me
through.
This
is
a
very
compassionate
person
who
cares
deeply
about
his
patients.
I
believe
it
is
the
combination
of
his
knowledge,
experience,
and
insightful
sensitivity
with
the
commitment
of
the
patient
that
can
heal.
Everyone
deserves
the
level
of
medical
care
given
at
Anatara
Medicine.
