Dharma Singh Khalsa, M.D.
Dharma Singh Khalsa was born in Ohio and raised in Florida. He is a graduate of Creighton University School of Medicine in Omaha, Nebraska, and received his training in anesthesiology at the University of California at San Francisco, where he was chief resident. The merging of Eastern medicine with the best of Western technology has always been a passion for Khalsa, who is an American Sikh. He adopted this lifestyle in 1981 after studying and practicing these teachings in great depth.
Khalsa studied behavioral medicine at Harvard University and medical acupuncture for physicians at UCLA. He is board certified in anesthesiology, pain management, and anti-aging medicine. Additionally, he is a charter member of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine.
In 1990, after practicing as a clinical anesthesiologist at Lovelace Medical Center in Albuquerque for 13 years and developing the first holistic pain program in New Mexico, Khalsa became the founding director of the Acupuncture/Stress Medicine and Chronic Pain Program at the University of Arizona College of Medicine campus at Maricopa Medical Center in Phoenix. He is the first director of acupuncture in an American medical school.
Currently, Khalsa is the president and medical director of the Alzheimer's Prevention Foundation, a nonprofit organization investigating new developments in the prevention and reversal of memory loss.
Khalsa is the author of Brain Longevity: The Breakthrough Medical Program That Improves Your Mind and Memory, The Pain Cure: The Proven Medical Program That Helps End Your Chronic Pain, and Meditation as Medicine.
