11 KALISH METHOD PRACTITIONERS IN ACTION Practitioner: Dr. Laila Nematbakhsh Accomplishment: Hit The Ground Running Story: Shortly after graduating from Chiropractic College, Dr. Nematbakhsh hused the Klih Kalish Method to get her business Azula Chiropractic off to a fast start. Six years later she has a large integrative clinic with 8 treatment rooms and a large team of natural health care practitioners Website: KALISH METHOD PRACTITIONERS IN ACTION Story: Running a busy practice, with a focus on athletes and wellness programs, Dr. Glenn Hyman used the Kalish Method to increase the types of care he offers to patients I had been looking for a comprehensive resource that would help me develop a successful functional medicine practice. Luckily, I met Dr. Daniel Kalish at a seminar a few years ago. Enrolling in his 6 month program was the best professional investment that I have ever made. I m now helping my patients dramatically improve their lives, I m enjoying a substantial increase in revenue, and I ve found an enthusiasm for my practice that I thought I d never feel again. This program is excellent and I d highly recommend it to my colleagues and friends Website:

12 THE KALISH METHOD IN ACTION Story: Dr. Galera says, I dabbled with certain aspects of Functional Medicine, but never was able to develop a comprehensive approach that was easy to understand, implement and follow. It is most reassuring to have predictable outcomes that both our practitioners and patients obtain and look forward to achieving in their pursuit of health and wellness. Dr. Kalish s genuine interest in our success combined with his passion to share this amazing approach with us has been the icing on the cake (gluten free of course).
