Since our inception in 2005, Mederi’s clinical training programs and lecture offerings have educated thousands of healthcare providers in our unique and highly efficacious Mederi Care approach (also known as the Eclectic Triphasic Medical System™ or ETMS). Participants have included medical doctors, oncologists, naturopaths, acupuncturists and other health care providers.

What is Mederi Academy?

Mederi Academy is a 2-year, accredited online learning program that trains healthcare practitioners around the world in Mederi Medicine, giving them the skills they need to significantly improve quality of life and longevity for people facing cancer and other serious health challenges.

Who is Mederi Academy for?

Mederi Academy is open to licensed clinical practitioners who are committed to providing comprehensive care in the field of integrative medicine, specifically with an interest in our unitive, Mederi Care model. The Academy addresses the deep gaps in current healthcare by training providers in our wholistic, unitive form of medicine and healing, thus providing a much-needed foundation for the integration of conventional science, genetics, and immunology with the life-enhancing properties of botanical medicine.  

What does Mederi Academy offer?

The skills-based, 2-year online learning curriculum is delivered by Mederi Care/ETMS trained faculty and includes several optional in-person training modules in Ashland. Participants develop deep knowledge of Mederi Care and the skills to effectively practice it. 

The first year is a pre-clinical curriculum with an objectives-based structure that includes Mederi Care/ETMS methodology, botanical medicine, genetics, immunology, well-being, prevention, and chronic conditions. The second year focuses on clinical skills training.

Training in Mederi Care/ETMS emphasizes advanced clinical applications of botanical, nutritional, and biological medicine principles within a multifaceted framework in order to successfully execute health-building interventions and protocols that enhance patient vitality and lifespan.
