In this week’s episode of Your Best Life, Karl interviews Dr. Shiroko Sokitch, a practicing MD who tackles mystery cases using the unique blend of Eastern and Western medicine. She teaches her patients to listen to their bodies, creating a feedback loop that’s not limited to just lab tests and clinical data. After being trained in general surgery and working as an ER physician, she studied acupuncture at Oriental Medical Arts, expanding her modalities of care. As an integrative practitioner for 23 years, Dr. Sokitch also hosted the TV show, Perspectives on Healing, and has written a Sonoma County news column for 15 years. Currently she’s writing her second book, titled 7 Keys to Accelerated Healing, which is due out in the next year. Having founded the Heart-to-Heart Medical Center in Santa Rosa, California, Dr. Sokitch is an expert at using all kinds of modalities to bring your body to balance and wholeness, addressing a wide array of common issues like chronic illness, pain, hormone regulation, digestive distress, and even brain chemistry.
