Eleven members of the McGill community, representing the Faculties of Medicine and Dentistry, were among the 49 Canadians recognized for their leadership in the health sciences through their election as new Fellows of the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences (CAHS), one of the highest honours for individuals in the Canadian health sciences community. The new Fellows were formally inducted during a ceremony as part of the CAHS Annual Meeting on September 19, in Ottawa. Elections are based on a nominating and peer review process that seeks to recognize those who are marked by a record of substantial accomplishment.

The 11 newly elected Fellows from McGill are:

Charles BourqueDr. Charles Bourque is a Professor of Neurology and Neurosurgery at McGill University and a senior scientist in the Brain Repair and Integrative Neuroscience Program at the McGill University Health Centre. His team investigates the molecular and cellular mechanisms by which the brain monitors body hydration. Dr. Bourque has identified the mechanisms underlying osmoreception, revealed how the brains central clock contributes to body fluid homeostatis, and showed how dietary salt can increase blood pressure by affecting the brains osmoregulatory networks.

Alain BrunetAlain Brunet is a scientist-practitioner at the Douglas Institute and Professor of Psychiatry at McGill University. His research team was the first to show in a patient population that one could treat a psychiatric disorder by selectively blocking the reconsolidation of specific memories. The applications of this finding to date include the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder, addiction, and adjustment disorders. This brief treatment method was taught as an emergency measure to 200 clinicians in France who, in turn, successfully treated hundreds of victims in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks that took place in Paris (2015) and Nice (2016).

Elham EmamiDr. Emami is a clinician-scientist, professor, and the first female Dean of the Faculty of Dentistry at McGill University.

Recipient of several career awards, she serves on various national and international executive, advisory and editorial boards, and has a strong track record of service to the community in the field of Dental Science

Zu-hua GaoDr. Zu-hua Gao has been the Chair of Department of Pathology at McGill University and Chief of Pathology at McGill University Health Center since 2012.

He has edited 3 extremely popular textbooks; Clinical Skills Review, Gross morphology of Common Diseases and Pathology Review and Practice Guide. As a distinguished scientist in cancer and transplant immunology research, Dr. Gao has published 139 peer reviewed articles and received over 20 prestigious research awards.

Leonard LevinLeonard A. Levin, MD, PhD, FRCSC is Chair of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences at McGill University. Dr. Levins research is devoted to understanding how diseases of the optic nerve result in loss of connections between the eye and the brain, finding ways to prevent and reverse that damage, and translating those findings to treating people with eye disease. He also addresses the challenges associated with bridging the gap between what is discovered in the laboratory and what is effective in patients, and is developing novel techniques for solving this problem.

Carmen LoiselleDr. Carmen G. Loiselle, (Ph.D., Nursing & Psychology) is Full Professor in the Faculty of Medicine at McGill University. She holds a Research Chair in psychosocial oncology, is CoDirector (Academic) of the Segal Cancer Centre and Scientific Director at Hope & Cope.

An exceptional and generous mentor to trainees and colleagues, she led a 12-year CIHR-funded research training initiative in psychosocial oncology that provided stipends for promising trainees pursuing transdisciplinary cancer research at six participating Canadian Universities.

Errol B. MarlissDr. Marliss is an exemplary, widely-collaborative MD clinician-scientist in the areas of obesity and diabetes. His group is internationally recognized for showing that abnormal protein metabolism in these diseases accompanies that of glucose, and how to correct it. An amino acid metabolomic signature in these states predicts diabetes risk. Brain research during a weight reduction diet identified signals associated with success. A rat type 1 diabetes syndrome he discovered gave insights into the human disease. He has been a dedicated physician, nutrition teacher, committee member, and exceptional mentor to many trainees and junior faculty, most of whom became successful academics.

She focused first on refugee mental health, uncovering the complex interactions between pre-migratory and post-migratory factors through numerous studies; she confirmed the pertinence of eco-systemic approaches for refugee care, which led her to develop school-based prevention programs for refugee children. Consulting to governments, she presently implements clinical and prevention programs to address the sensitive issue of violent radicalization

Kevin SchwartzmanDr. Kevin Schwartzman is Director of the Respiratory Division at McGill University. He is Chair-Elect of the Tuberculosis Section of the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease.

Integrative Medicine and Health – Overview – Mayo Clinic

Posted: September 14, 2019 at 2:47 am

When you're sick, medication or even surgery may be just what the doctor orders. Dr. Adam Perlman, an integrative health specialist at Mayo Clinic, asks an additional question.

"What else can we do to really improve our sense of well-being?"

That's where acupuncture, yoga or tai chi may be integrated into an overall plan of care. Dr. Perlman describes it as "really helping people to go beyond the treatment of disease and pathophysiology, to really a place where they are optimizing their vitality."

Evidence shows, for instance, that acupuncture can help with chronic pain and may be recommended to those with cancer, chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia.

Tai chi helps with balance and reduces falls in older adults. Yoga may help reduce stress, lower blood pressure and lower your heart rate.

But, Dr. Perlman says, it's not just what you do with your body that's important.

"Other things that tend to impact our health and well-being are things like gratitude and relationships."

For the Mayo Clinic News Network, I'm Vivien Williams.

Overview

Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is the popular name for health care practices that traditionally have not been part of conventional medicine. In many cases, as evidence of efficacy and safety grows, these therapies are being combined with conventional medicine.

Thus, the term alternative has been dropped and replaced with newer terms, such as complementary and integrative medicine, integrative medicine and health, or just integrative medicine.

Integrative medicine can help people with cancer, persistent pain, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia and many other conditions better manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life by reducing fatigue, pain and anxiety. Examples of common practices include:

The treatments promoted in integrative medicine are not substitutes for conventional medical care. They should be used in concert with standard medical treatment.

Certain therapies and products are not recommended at all or not recommended for certain conditions or people. The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health is a good tool for researching a therapy you're considering. It's also important to talk with your health care provider before trying something new.

FAQ | Integrative Medicine of New Jersey

Posted: March 29, 2019 at 1:46 am

New Patient FAQsIs the doctor a primary care physician?

Dr. Rimma Sherman is trained as a primary care physician and would be happy to provide acute care services. She will work with you closely as a consultant and coach in preventive, nutritional and integrative medicine to help you address the roots of chronic health problems.

MOST OF THE TESTING can be performed at the Integrative Medicine of New Jersey. Some testing can be done through conventional laboratories and others are only available through specialty laboratories. During your medical consultation, Dr. Sherman will determine which tests are needed and then our nurses will review testing recommendations, instructions (for instance, fasting or non-fasting, etc.) and costs.

Your financial resources, and how much testing you want to do, are taken into account and the plan for testing is reviewed with you. Testing is frequently done to assess nutritional status including amino acids, fatty acids, oxidative stress, vitamin levels, mitochondrial function, food allergies, and heavy metals. Many other tests are available, including genetic testing for a variety of conditions, hormone evaluations, bone health, gastrointestinal health, adrenal function, neurotransmitters and many others.

Some testing can be performed at home with test kits to collect urine, saliva or stool. Others may require you to go to a local laboratory to draw the blood. We also have an on-site phlebotomist for your convenience. In all cases, we will assist you in coordinating initial and follow-up testing.

While the testing gives a more complete picture of your status, effective care can be implemented without it, or testing can be done over time. You should not let this prevent you from seeing Dr. Rimma Sherman.

YES, DR. RIMMA SHERMANS MEDICAL license requires that she meet with a patient in order to provide an initial medical consultation, and there is no substitute for that initial doctor-patient connection. Follow-up appointments can be arranged by phone or in the office.

Dr. Rimma Sherman can, and does, prescribe medications whenever necessary. She is fully licensed and Board-certified.

Integrative Medicine of New Jersey works exclusively as an out-of-network provider for commercial plans. We charge a pre-paid amount based on the type of service, and will submit a claim on your behalf to your insurance company. We cannot assure you that services (office visits, phone consultations or lab tests) will be reimbursed. If insurance reimburses us, we will forward that on to you within 30 days. Some insurance carriers may cover medical services and laboratory tests performed by Dr. Sherman. Payment in full by check, cash or credit card is due at the time services are provided.

In an effort to help patients obtain and maintain life-long health and wellness, Dr. Rimma Sherman addresses the root cause of symptoms and corrects health ailments naturally rather than merely masking symptoms with drugs.

Dr. Sherman uses an innovative systems approach to assessing and treating your health care concerns. Perhaps you have experienced being examined by your doctor, having blood tests done, x-rays or other diagnostic tests taken, only for your doctor to report back that all your tests are normal. Yet, both you and your doctor know that you are sick. Unfortunately, this experience is all too common.

Most physicians were trained to look only in specific places for the answers, using the same familiar labs or diagnostic tests. Yet, many causes of illness cannot be found in these places. The usual tests do not look for food allergies, hidden infections, environmental toxins, mold exposures, nutritional deficiencies and metabolic imbalances. New gene testing can uncover underlying genetic predispositions that can be modified through diet, lifestyle, supplements or medications.

Dr. Rimma Sherman uses such testing to help her patients prevent illness and recover from many chronic and difficult to treat conditions. She is highly skilled in evaluating, assessing and treating chronic problems such as fibromyalgia, fatigue syndromes, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory disorders, mood and behavior disorders, memory problems, Parkinsons disease and other chronic, complex conditions. She also focus on the prevention and treatment of heart disease, diabetes, dementia, hormonal imbalances and digestive disorders.

THE INITIAL VISIT will include a 60-minute medical consultation with Dr. Rimma Sherman.Initial 60-minute MD consultation: $400.00MD Office Visit or Phone Follow-up 60-Minutes: $400MD Office Visit or Phone Follow-up 30-Minutes: $250Nutritionist Office Visit or Phone Follow-up 60-Minutes: $180Nutritionist Office Visit or Phone Follow-up 30-Minutes: $100For more information about our fees, see our Practice Policies.

YES, WE DO RECOMMEND that all our patients see our nutritionist. It is very important to review the food allergies with our nutritionist once they become available, because the situation can be very complicated and hard to manage without assistance. Nutritionists have different points of view reflecting different standards. The Nutritionist at Integrative Medicine of New Jersey works in collaboration with Dr. Sherman and makes recommendations based on Dr. Shermans opinions.
