Being able to teach such complex subjects so well is a gift. Thank you Dr Seheult.

What an enlightening coincidence. Six years ago today (2/17/14), I had heart failure and an urgent need for someone to help me understand exactly what the heckledoodles had happened to me. In your video above, you have FINALLY given me the explanation I've needed for the last six years! Kudos to YOU and poo-poo to my doctors back then. Thank you!
-
I've started working as a cardiac nurse and I find your materials really helpful and easier to understand! I will share this to my colleagues, keep it up!

His voice sounds so kind and compassionate. I Thank him.

I was 'told' I had CHF.. but recently a Doctor told me that my numbers where improving, that he had NEVER seen anyone's numbers improve.. this without any bypass or such, I take only blood pressure meds.. and NOT any Beta-Blockers as those are toxic to me.. I've been taking Herbs and doing Chelation treatments.. So, this 'it' can't be fixed thing is poor judgement..
-
Absolutely brilliant. Explained in a manner that makes the topic easier to grasp and clarifies many key areas. Invaluable resource.

Once again, you have clarified something that had been confusing me for a while in patient documentation, THANKS!

What a clear, concise thorough explanation by Dr. Seheult. He is so amazingly low key but he is able to impart the material in a very comprehensive manner.
