In his private practice, Eric is a great proponent of proper nutrition for optimal health.  He frequently educates his patients on the benefits of natural, God given nutrients contained in whole foods.  Eric believes that The Creator in His wisdom, made food whole and all essential nutrients for health are contained in various foods.  On the other hand, man refines food and takes out certain nutrients to extend shelf life, therefore destroying God-intended nutrients required to maintain a strong immune system and support good health. When necessary, Eric will refers his patients for nutritional therapy and vitamin supplementation and has been involved in nutritional instruction regarding healthy food options.  


When appropriate, Eric will educate his patients about proper diet, about dead verses living food, refined verses whole food, preservatives and adulterated foods verses pure foods, good and bad oils, and the great benefits of natural probiotics contained in fermented foods.  Eric has also been making his own fremented foods for years and has instructed others to do likewise.  He loves bees and is an avid apiarist.  He believes that watching bees work is like observing a miracle and are as essential to our ecosystem as rain and sun.  Eric's hives have produced some of the best honey and he loves to teach about the medicinal benefits of it.



Eric has been an EMT (Certified Emergency Medical Technician) since 2002 and has actively worked as a first responder for a municipal emergency medical systems advanced life support ambulance company.  He is an Internationally Certified Fire Marshal and has served his community as a Battalion Chief, firefighter, and officer with multiple years of extensive experience in the field of fire rescue.
