Through Illness Came Hope and Revelations.
Dr. Kan’s journey started when his father was diagnosed with terminal liver cancer at the age of 75 and was told there was no hope of survival. Dr. Kan along with his brother, who is also a physician, researched naturals methods to support their father’s condition. He was able to live another 5 years symptom free through nutrition, diet change and natural therapies.
When Dr. Kan’s one year old son suffered a severe burn injury that led to a host of chronic respiratory conditions and neurobehavioral symptoms, Dr. Kan sought answers in functional neurology, completing his fellowship training in Childhood Development Disorder and became a Board Certified Chiropractic Neurologist.
A few years later, when he found out his daughter has severe food allergies the hard way, by rushing her to the hospital due to anaphylaxis, he dove head first into functional medicine, completing training as a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner and Certified Gluten Practitioner, as well as attaining Fellowship status with the American Association of Integrative Medicine.
When Life Gives You a Lemon, You Make Lemonade.
Dr. Kan believes that there are no accidents in life and everything happens for a reason. Although the family illnesses were difficult and stressful, his family’s health was transformed through it all. Thousands of hours of post graduate training and over 5,000 clients later, Dr. Kan is committed more than ever to use what he has learned to help those who has lost hope and lost in the insurance-based, profit-motivated, and pharmaceutically-driven system that is failing people with chronic conditions.
Dr. Kan supports and manages patients with chronic conditions using a comprehensive approach by merging the exciting advances of functional neurology and functional medicine. Patients from across the country have come to seek out his holistic approach that is changing the lives of those suffering from chronic conditions. Dr. Kan regularly consults with other physicians on the methods he uses.
Born in Taiwan and immigrated to America at the age of 13, Dr. Kan has deep appreciation of the Eastern wisdom and Western advances in natural healthcare. He believes in the God given ability of the body to heal and regulate itself, and that the body, mind, and spirit must be in alignment for healing to take place. It is his faith in God that gives him the passion and commitment to help patients with chronic pain find hope and healing.
