Dr.
H. Anthony Vendryes is a graduate of the University of the
West Indies and the Royal College of Anaesthetists of England.
He worked as a specialist in anaesthesia and intensive care.
Following his conventional medical training, Dr. Vendryes
studies hypnosis, mind/body medicine, nutritional and herbal
medicine, Yoga and other Eastern approaches to healing.
Within the last decade, Dr Vendryes has been engaged in transforming
his medical practice to holistic and integrative medicine
which combines both conventional and alternative based modalities.
He employs an approach to health care that highlights the
intimate relationship that exists between mind, body and spirit
and the need to address the whole person not just his or her
symptoms. His focus is on health and disease prevention rather
than on illness. His vast experience and knowledge allow him
to help anyone who comes for treatment and he challenges his
clients to take responsibility for their health and acts as
mentor and coach in helping them to achieve optimal wellness.
Dr Vendryes writes for a number of local newspapers, including
his weekly column on “An Ounce of Prevention”
in the Daily Gleaner. He has been heard on Radio programmes
such as the “Radio Doctor” on Radio Waves, Montego
Bay and “Healthy Alternatives” on Hot 102.
Dr Vendryes’ extensive speaking engagements include
the Caribbean Ophthalmologists Association Annual Scientific
Meeting in St Croix in 2002 as well at Corporate Health Seminars
and Herbalife International events.
