Dr. Don Colbert

Dr. Don Colbert graduated from ORU School of Medicine in 1984. Right away, he moved to Central Florida where he did his internship and residency at Florida Hospital. For over twenty years, Dr. Colbert has practiced medicine in Central Florida. He has been board certified in Family Practice since August 1987, and is also board certified in Anti-Aging Medicine.

Dr. Colbert is not quick to jump to invasive procedures, pain medications, or mood altering drugs. Instead, he works with patients to get to the source of their problem. He then individualizes a complete course of treatment for each person that will treat their body, mind, and spirit: enabling each person to fulfill the calling of God on their lives.

He bases his plan for healing on seven distinct pillars of health as God revealed it to him: -- drinking clean water -- getting adequate sleep and rest -- eating living foods -- getting adequate amounts of exercise -- detoxifying the body -- proper nutritional supplementation -- and teaching patients how to cope with stress.

Since becoming a physician, Dr. Colbert has seen over 30,000 patients. Having written over 40 books -- including his latest book, The Seven Pillars of Health -- Dr. Don Colbert has become recognized as a best selling author. He was recently the winner of the Christian Retailer's Choice award for best booklet series for The Bible Cure series. To date, his books have sold over 4 million copies.
