about the author
SHEILA KILBANE, MD, is a board-certified pediatrician trained in integrative medicine. She is the founder and medical director of Infinite Health, her private practice in Charlotte, North Carolina. Her team of professionals is trained and dedicated to using the best of both conventional and integrative medicine to identify and treat the root cause of children’s illnesses.
Based on years of working with thousands of pediatric patients, Dr. Kilbane developed the 7-step program she shares in this book. Her method helps children with chronic or recurrent illnesses achieve significant improvements or complete resolution. An online companion course to this book is available through Dr. Kilbane’s website, for families who do not have access to an integrative pediatrician.
Dr. Kilbane is on a mission to transform pediatric healthcare and get one million kids off medications they may not need. Her favorite part of working with families is seeing the light come back into parents’ eyes once their child is out of crisis mode—that’s when belly laughter can find its place in the home once again.
To help spread the word about how profoundly nutrition impacts children’s health, she presents at medical conferences and online summits, and guest blogs and regularly appears on wellness podcasts. She consults with healthcare professionals around the globe as they learn to incorporate integrative medicine into their practices.
Dr. Kilbane splits her time between Charlotte, North Carolina, and Seattle, Washington. She loves just about any outdoor activity with family and friends, and especially enjoys her eight nieces and nephews.
