Dr. Tel-Oren ("Dr. T"), the President and founder of Ecopolitan and of the Functional & Dental Health (FDH) Foundation, as well as President Emeritus and Professor at the University of Natural Medicine, Santa Fe, NM and President of Integrated HealthCare Clinics, Inc., has been traveling extensively in the last several years, lecturing in many countries and cities, and training doctors, dentists, and nurses to integrate nutritional, preventive, and functional medicine into their practices. He is also educating the public about important holistic, scientific health care concepts employed by functional medicine, which utilizes advanced laboratory techniques that assess the causes for disease and the processes leading to it. This allows the practitioners to address health concerns more effectively, to prevent diseases from forming or progressing further (and frequently to reverse the process altogether), and to predict the susceptibility or sensitivity, or likelihood of developing disorders in the future.
In addition to assisting our management team with scientific, holistic, and business guidance, Dr. Tel-Oren oversees Ecopolitan's long-term development plans and the writing of our educational materials, as well as leads most of our Free Tuesday Meetings. He also guides the Nepal Treks (Yoga-Trek in November and Rhododendron-Bloom Trek in March) plus the Thailand Tropical Retreats in the winter, under the auspices of his PELC Foundation (pelc) and the FDH Foundation , both functioning as agents for the University's non-profit activities. He is seeing patients just one or two days each month , plus does laboratory tests when indicated for his patients and for other doctors' referred patients. You can find more information about his activities here. To reach Dr. T (for medical concerns, or to join the FDH Foundation or any of the Treks or Retreats) please call his assistant, Joe, using our secondary phone line (612)870-2974, or email Joe)
