OPTIONS FOR PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

I. Practice Transformation: From Conventional to Holistic, Integrative and Functional Medicine

Practice Transformation was developed by Mimi Guarneri MD, FACC, ABOIM and Rauni Prittinen King, RN, MIH to jumpstart your career transition from Conventional to Holistic, Integrative and Functional Medicine. They have been leaders in the Integrative Medicine movement since mid-1990’s when they co-created the Scripps Center for Integrative Medicine. At that time Dr. Guarneri was an interventional cardiologist at Scripps Clinic and became a PI and a Medical Director for the Dean Ornish Program for Reversing Heart Disease, multicenter Lifestyle Change Program. Rauni Prittinen King, RN, MIH was an Intensive Care Unit Nurse and became the program’s Nurse Case Manager. Years later they created a health,  healing and educational center called Pacific Pearl La Jolla which is home of the Guarneri Integrative Health Inc., an Interprofessional Holistic and Integrative Practice. Dr. Guarneri also created the Academy of Integrative Health and Medicine (AIHM), in which she is serving as the president and Rauni Prittinen King RN, MIH is a board member. Both have been advisors and teachers for large healthcare systems seeking to include Integrative and holistic options and approaches. These include the Chambers Center for Well-Being in Morristown New Jersey where Dr. Guarneri served as a senior adviser, and she currently serves as a founding board member for specialty certification in Integrative Medicine by ABPS. In 2015, Dr. Guarneri was named #6 on the list of the Best Integrative Medicine doctors in the United States by Newsmax, and also being the # 1 female doctor on the list. For the last twenty years they both have been devoted to educating physicians and other health care providers. Practice Transformation has grown out of the requests by clinicians to change and expand their conventional medicine practice to one that is focused on Holistic, Integrative and Functional Medicine.

Due to multiple requests to shadow her and her colleagues at the “Pearl” the center is offering the following programs.
