Dr. Chiaramonte on reducing suffering for patients with serious illness and tips to support healing.

Do you know someone battling cancer or a  long-term illness who is always in pain? You need to listen to this episode with Dr. Chiaramonte. We will talk about whole-person care for people with serious illnesses using all the tools that work.

We will talk about why combining integrative and palliative medicine creates healing and reduces suffering for patients with serious illnesses so much better than either approach alone.

Delia Chiaramonte, MD, is an integrative palliative medicine physician passionate about physician education. She spent a decade as the Associate Director and Director of Education for the Center for Integrative Medicine at the University of Maryland medical school, and she is board certified in palliative medicine. Most recently, she ran an integrative palliative medicine program, serving mostly cancer patients. Seeing the power of this unique model, she started The Institute for Integrative Palliative Medicine with the goal of training 1,000 physicians to provide “whole person care for people with serious illness using all the tools that work.”
