In this podcast, we talk with Dr. Eleanor Stein. Dr. Stein is a medical doctor and psychiatrist. The course of her career in academic medicine took a sudden turn when she developed myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia and environmental sensitivities in 1989 during her psychiatry residency. She experienced the same lack of informed care that so many face and as a result made the decision to focus her practice on chronic complex diseases. Since then, she has devoted her career to learning about these conditions and has worked closely with thousands of patients integrating conventional and integrative approaches to help them improve their health and function. Dr. Stein retired from medical practice at the end of 2022 to devote her time to sharing what she has learned over the past 35 years. Through her website, she provides free resources and paid courses.
