Learn MoreLearn A&P with our very own Wendy Warner, MD, ABIHM, IFMCP and Andrew Appello, DACM, MSN, L.Ac., APN, RH(AHG) available here! They are wonderful teachers and have a depth of knowledge on anatomy and physiology (as well as many other topics), especially as it pertains to clinical practice, that few others can offer. We believe you will find this class not only highly educational but deeply relevant to becoming a clinical herbalist.


From our students:
“This A&P course was extremely well-organized and proceeded on a lesson gradient with each body system connecting to the next. The herbal knowledge spread throughout the course helped to bridge the gap between how herbs and different parts of the body work together to achieve balance. It lays out a thorough foundation for any non-science degree individual looking to prepare for serious herbal studies.”-Kate McKinley
““I found this course to be exceptionally well-designed — an exciting and accessible entry-point into the study of anatomy and physiology. In particular, I appreciated the integrative approach which underlies this program, which is co-taught by a licensed acupuncturist, nurse practitioner and clinical herbalist and by a physician herbalist, each with years of experience in working between conventional clinical medicine, herbalism and other traditional healing modalities.” -Sarah Epstein

Learn MoreDavid Winston’s program has exceeded my expectations as a student. The online program makes me feel as if I’m actually in class, with access to a chat room, the ability to ask questions, and good tech support. David’s wealth of knowledge and willingness to share his experience provides a solid foundation for anyone who has an interest in herbal medicine. The materia medica of more than 300 herbs is extremely thorough and an invaluable reference. David not only gives us an understanding of the herbs themselves, but of physiology, how the energetics of the body and herbs work, and reviews of pertinent clinical studies throughout the program. And above all, David has taught us that good herbalists treat people, not diseases.
