Mederi Care Fundamentals:

Host Evaluation, Life Force, and the Role of Mederi Care in Aging, Chronic Disease, and Health Optimization 

Transform your approach to patient care with integrative oncology expert, Donnie Yance.

Whether you are currently working with patients with cancer or chronic disease, or are looking for the knowledge you need to confidently offer collaborative oncological care in your practice, this foundational course at Mederi Academy is for you. You will be introduced to our evidence-informed, patient-centered methodology called ETMS (Eclectic Triphasic Medical System), also known as Mederi Care, developed by Donnie Yance, CN, RH (AHG).

Mederi Care is a whole-systems approach to patient care with a strong emphasis on the application of botanical and nutritional medicine as foundational therapies. Embracing body, mind, and spirit as essential aspects of the whole person, Mederi Care provides a truly holistic and unitive approach to individualized patient care.

Gain the foundation you need to practice the Mederi Care methodology with your patients.


This course is an introduction to Mederi Care methodology, with an emphasis on developing a common language for discussing its core physiological and philosophical concepts. It also covers the “Three Branches” approach to case evaluation used in the Eclectic Triphasic Medical System (ETMS). Developed by Donnie Yance, CN, RH (AHG), ETMS is the theoretical framework for the clinical application of Mederi Care. The three branches of the ETMS are the host, microenvironment, and disease. This course also explores the Life Force concept as a central theme in Mederi Care, and examines the role of Mederi Care in health optimization. 

Your purchase also includes exclusive access to our bi-weekly LIVE Q&A sessions with Donnie Yance, CN, RH (AHG) & Jason Miller, DACM, LAc!
