Book 3 of 3
From Doctor to Healer
Dr. Erica M. Elliott
Subtitled The Mountain Lion's Gift. The final volume of the trilogy begins with a wide-eyed medical student and follows her into disillusionment, illness from the toxic chemicals in the clinic where she worked, a near-fatal accident and the experimental brain surgery that saved her life. That collapse pushed her off the mainstream path and onto the one that led to her own healing, and to the environmental medicine practice she runs in Santa Fe today.
Where this book sits
Medical school, practice, and the slow discovery that some of what she was taught did not hold. Then chemical illness, a near-fatal accident, brain surgery, and a recovery that changed what she thought medicine was.
What it leads to
It closes the circle back to book one: a prophecy spoken over her by a Navajo grandmother more than half a century earlier, fulfilled in a way she never expected.
