Dr. Peter J. Weiss

Per­haps you’ve noticed that there’s been less activ­ity on my web­site in the recent days and weeks. 

I haven’t been writ­ing as much lately.  It’s not that I don’t have any­thing to say; I’ve just been very busy prepar­ing for my new posi­tion with Florida Hos­pi­tal and the Adven­tist Health Sys­tem in Orlando.

Yes, I’m about to plunge back into the tra­di­tional health­care sys­tem, and, per­haps sur­pris­ing to some, I’m pretty excited about it!  Over the last cou­ple of years I’ve been work­ing to help indi­vid­u­als to well­ness, but as a “Lone Ranger” my impact was lim­ited.

Get­ting back into the health­care main­stream will give me a broader base from which to make more of a pos­i­tive impact.

For those of you who may not know, The Adven­tist Health Sys­tem is the largest Protes­tant not-for-profit health­care sys­tem in the United States.

Their mis­sion is “extend­ing the heal­ing min­istry of Christ,” and they take that seri­ously.  Just as impor­tantly, and despite their health­care provider sta­tus, they are com­mit­ted to help­ing indi­vid­u­als be well and avoid health­care.

You can see why I’m excited — they’re speak­ing my lan­guage!

My new role, lead­ing their small health insur­ance branch, offi­cially begins Octo­ber 31^st, but I’m already busy mak­ing the tran­si­tion.  My wife and I will be leav­ing Mel­bourne and mov­ing to Orlando as soon as it can be arranged.  So there is a lot to accom­plish both in the new posi­tion and in our per­sonal lives.

For all of those rea­sons, I will not be actively blog­ging for some time. The radio show is also on hold indef­i­nitely.  Of course, I will be happy to make appear­ances on oth­ers’ radio and TV shows, and I will con­tinue to speak and teach on well­ness, as I am able.

But my web pres­ence isn’t going away totally.  Con­tact me by e-mail as before and fol­low my Face­book page, which I intend to keep active with inter­est­ing links, com­ments and updates.

Thanks for all of your sup­port.

Be well!

Dr. Pete
