 When we treat our patients holistically – as we should – we take into consideration not only their physical health, but their mental health and stamina, too. We need to consider all aspects of the environment that may adversely affect a patient’s health and wellbeing, including the micro biome.
The micro biome forms an integral part of the immune system, and has gained increasing attention in both human and veterinary medicine in recent years. Research has shown that 75-80% of our immune system is located in the gut, making a diverse, symbiotic, balanced micro biome essential to the health, healing and recovery of our patients.

My eldest daughter, Shira Auerhahn, had her wedding to Rabbi Eric Berk at the Warren Center on Oct 14, 2018. It was a perfect fall day with clear skies and almost 62 degrees. My grand dogs, Isabella and Chloe, were the flower girls as were cousins, Anabell and River. It was really nice to have family and friends to celebrate this traditional Jewish wedding.
My mother, Joyce Lerner, who many of you have met, was so excited about her 1st grandchild getting married. She looked marvelous at almost 90 years young.
