About Dr. Greg Emerson

Dr Greg Emerson was the Founder and Medical Director of the Emerson Health and Wellness Centre which opened in October 2005. In May 2008 he became co-director of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine Queensland based in Brisbane Australia. He is a consultant in Nutritional and Environmental medicine, a senior specialist in Emergency Medicine and in Diving and Hyperbaric Medicine. For 18 years he practiced in several large public hospitals including a period of time as an Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine at the University of Alberta Hospital in Edmonton, Canada and as the Director of the Wesley Center for Hyperbaric Medicine in Brisbane. He is a lecturer, examiner and current board member for the Australian College of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine and a past-examiner for the Australasian College of Emergency Medicine. A long personal battle with illness led him on a profound exploration of healing processes and the prevention of illness. He reappraised both his medical focus and the way he approached health care delivery.

He has undertaken postgraduate training in:

  • Nutritional and Environmental medicine with the Australian College of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine (ACNEM) and the Institute for Health Realities.
  • Bioidentical hormones and anti-aging medicine with the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine.
  • Allergies and sublingual desensitisation with the Pan American Allergy Society (PAAS) and
  • Heavy metal toxicity and biological detoxification with the American College for Advancement in Medicine (ACAM) which is the world's leading integrative medicine organisation.
  • Live and dried blood analysis at the pH Miracle Centre in San Diego

He is an active member of all of the above organisations being one of only a few Australian members of ACAM and the only Australian member of the PAAS. He is a Fellow of both the Australian College of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine and the Australasian College of Emergency Medicine. He is also an advanced NAET practitioner- a system based on Eastern medicine principles designed to diagnose and treat food, inhaled and chemical sensitivities. He is Australias leading and most experienced medical live blood microscopist. In 1997 he published the Western world's largest epidemiological research paper on pesticide poisoning and has written extensively in the medical literature on carbon monoxide poisoning and diving medicine. He is the author of the chapter on decompression illness in the prestigious Textbook of Adult Emergency Medicine. In 2008 he co-authored a research paper on the use of intravenous magnesium in cardiac arrythmias which was published in the journal Academic Emergency Medicine.

Dr Emerson played professional basketball for five years. He is a certified PADI dive instructor and an NLP trainer. On a personal note he is a passionate student of Latin dance, a keen traveller and an enthusiastic skiier. He is also a dedicated member of the Oneness Movement and is licensed to give the Oneness Blessing.

He believes in the intrinsic ability of the body to heal itself if the underlying cause of the illness is addressed. His practice revolves around four core principles, in the belief that almost all non-traumatic illnesses will respond to these principles:

  1. Detoxification of heavy metals and other environmental toxins.
  2. Alkalinisation and eradication of chronic infections (especially fungus).
  3. Balancing of hormones.
  4. Attain inner peace.
    5.

His main clinical interests are:

  • Acid:alkaline balance and the role of chronic systemic fungal infections in health and illness (mycology).
  • Adrenal and thyroid disorders, particularly the management of adrenal fatigue and subclinical hypothyroidism.
  • Food and chemical sensitivity.
  • Chronic toxic metal poisonings (such as mercury and lead), particularly the use of intravenous and oral chelating agents in common degenerative diseases.
  • Anti-Aging medicine, particularly maintenance of youthful hormone levels and prolongation of anabolic metabolism with physiological doses of bioidentical hormones.

Dr Emerson regularly lectures both within Australia and internationally on Nutritional and Environmental medicine. He also runs his own successful international medical conference. His mission is to provide people with the knowledge, tools and motivation to live a life of extraordinary health, vitality and longevity.

"I passionately believe in the intrinsic ability of the body to heal itself if the underlying cause of the illness is addressed. My practice revolves around four core principles, in the belief that almost all non-traumatic illnesses will respond to these principles:

1) Detoxification of heavy metals and environmental toxins
2) Alkalinisation of the body and elimination of chronic infections, particularly systemic fungal infections
3) Balancing of hormones and
4) Attain inner peace."
