John C. Pittman, MD, DABCMT
Dr. Pittman received his B.S. in biology in 1980 and completed
studies for a M.S. in biochemistry and microbiology at the
University of Georgia in 1982. He received his M.D. degree
from Mercer University in Macon, Georgia in 1986 and attended
the Pediatric Residency Program at NC Baptist Hospital in
Winston-Salem, North Carolina with an interest in Preventive
Medicine.
Dr. Pittman began working as an Emergency Physician and
was Emergency Department Director in Rocky Mount and Southport,
North Carolina. It was in the Emergency Room setting that
he realized how much lifestyle issues—especially diet
and nutrition—were playing significant roles in the
health of the patients he saw. Prompted by this, Dr. Pittman
began exploring avenues of incorporating conventional and
holistic medicine with nutrition into a clinical medical
practice. In 1994, he established The Carolina Center, a
facility where multiple healing modalities were brought
together to help patients with chronic degenerative illnesses.
Since that time, Dr. Pittman has intensified his training
and has gained certification in chelation therapy, mercury
and heavy metal toxicology, and oxidative medicine.

Meredith has been a RN for over 10 years and has experience

Meredith says that she’s always had an interest in Integrative
Medicine. “My family has lived in Appalachia for over
300 years. My parents always used ‘home remedies’
to treat aliments throughout my life. We used ‘natural
healers’, as well as ‘traditional’ medical
providers. They have been very supportive in my personal journey
to integrative medical care.”
