After years of exposing our broken medical system, we get asked all the time, “So which doctor should I see? Do my kids need a pediatrician? What do I do if my doctor doesn’t believe in holistic approaches to my health? My insurance won’t pay for me to see an alternative physician, so what do I do?”

Once you see just how broken the medical system (medical error is the third leading cause of death in America), you don’t know where to go, who to see, how to pay for it, and who to trust.

But we’ve been on this journey to optimal health and wellness for awhile, and after years of trying to help people have their eyes opened to the truth, we now want to help you create a new health system for yourselves and your families that serves you well and keep you well!

Can kids with autism get better? Can they heal? In this episode we talk with Greer McGuinness, founder of Biomedical Healing for Kids, to explore her inspiring journey as a mother of an autistic child who was on a mission to find healing for him, and what she discovered and the dramatic transformation she witnessed expanded her mission to helping other children with autism and ADHD heal, too.

She earned a master’s degree in health science, equipping herself with the knowledge to better understand the intricate connections between health and the body’s overall function, and combined with her 15 years in the medical field, she developed expertise in functional and integrative medicine—an approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the underlying causes of health challenges rather than merely masking symptoms.

Using alternative and holistic therapies in her personalized consulting services, she designs evidence-based, functional, and integrative health strategies tailored to meet the unique individual needs of each child with an autism diagnosis.
