Michael Wetzler

Dr. Michael Wetzler trained as a doctor at the Royal Free Hospital.

He was interested early on in Complementary medicine, and became a cofounder of the British Holistic Medical Association in 1983.

This has five tenets.

1)Seeing patient consisting of body, emotion, mind and spirit

2)Seeing patient and doctor sharing responsibility for getting the patient better.

3)Using a wider range of interventions than just Orthodox Medicine, including a range of Complementary approaches.

4)Seeing the person as a self healing, self developing being.

5)The doctor on his own path of self development and healing.

Dr. Wetzler  has tried to live by these tenets, and this has taken him to being a General Practitioner, first in Scotland, training as a Counsellor in 'Transpersonal Psychology', resulting in him working alongside his first General Practice as a counsellor in a charitable counselling service called 'Wellspring'

From there he moved to becoming Principal Doctor at the Bristol Cancer Help Centre (nowadays called the Penny Brohn Centre after its founder) where he worked for five years, and helped field criticism following a research study questioning the centre's work.

In 1991, he then moved to South Africa where he developed a Holistic practice with a colleague of his Dr. Raoul Goldberg, in a building that they designed together. See www.syringa-health.co.za . There he was part of the founding group of SACMA, the South African Complementary Medical Association.

He returned to the Uk in 2003 to work in a Nutritionally focused hospital, The Breakspear Hospital, in Hemel Hempstead on www.breakspearmedical.com .

Following this he developed his own private practice www.wwhealthcare.co.uk ,using a holistic approach and also became a Lead General Practitioner in a practice in North London under the auspices of ChilversMccrea Healthcare www.chilversmcrea.co.uk There, his clientele was multi-national, and especially focussed on the Orthodox (Chareidi) Jewish community in Stamford Hill.

Dr. Wetzler speaks five languages, German, French, Spanish and Portuguese, and gets by in Yiddish, alongside his native English.

He still works with complementary approaches to cancer, using nutrition, complementary medicines, psychological support, and he has also been involved in a healing approach called ‘Life Alignment’ www.life-alignment.com which he uses for people who are interested in more subtle healing approaches.

He works with a company called Natures Sunshine using their nutritional supplements with good effect: www.naturessunshine.eu/uk/wwhealthcare and also uses Glyconutrients to support people with chronic illness www.glycostory.com www.mannatech.com  

He  works now both as a General Practitioner, combining his knowledge of Orthodox and complementary medicine, and sees people privately at his practice, using whatever mode of  health management and healing that is appropriate. He also does local House calls.
