Meet Dr. Rachel Felber

The last 20 years of my life have been dedicated to pursuing and establishing a career in Emergency Medicine. Following my own intellectual passion while also providing a necessary humanitarian service was incredibly rewarding – I had my dream job.

Working in Emergency Rooms in New York City, Baltimore, and California allowed me to treat a wide range of illnesses and injuries. The fast pace, high energy, and constant challenges kept me engaged for many years. At the same time, my personal passion for fitness and nutrition grew as I sought to be the healthiest version of myself for my two little kids. I spent countless hours learning how proper nutrition and resistance training have a dramatic impact on our susceptibility to – and trajectory of – nearly all chronic diseases.

Over time, prescribing medications to mitigate or suppress symptoms without addressing the root cause began to weigh on my conscience. I felt that I was doing a disservice to my patients. The ER, however, is not the place to address these deeper issues – patients are focused on immediate concerns, and the fast-paced environment does not allow the time for meaningful education about long-term health changes.
