SBCM specializes in working with patients with chronic diseases, such as cancer, by combining ancient botanical medicine with modern functional medicine analytics.Oscar hails from the martial arts where finding/feeling pressure points to humanely neutralize opponents easily transferred over to acupuncture to help restore balance in medical practice. Concepts of balance, Yin & Yang, meridians, Qi, flow, the 5 Elements, and precision remained unchanged pivoting to the Medical Arts. Oscar earned a bachelor's degree in nutrition science & minored in anthropology with a focus on Traditional Medicine at the University of Georgia. After 3,000+ hrs. of hands-on apprenticeship training and national board exams, Oscar earned his Herbal Medicine & Acupuncture National Board Certifications (2009) and became a Registered Herbalist with the American Herbalists Guild (2021).In addition to the valuable seminar, conference, and workshop continuing education in ancient Traditional Medicines with plant, animal, and fungal-based pharmacopoeias, Oscar also continued studies in the more biomedical and systems engineering fields of Functional Medicine and wholistic oncology. Since 2012, he has been a regular speaker at regional and national symposia on dentistry, functional medicine, and traditional medicine where he presents on incorporating plant- and fungal-based therapies into clinical practice.The amalgamative zenith of these areas of study is called the Eclectic Triphasic Medical System (ETMS), an approach created by master herbalist Donnie Yance, one of Oscar's mentors. In the ETMS, ancient wisdom of Traditional Medicine (Chinese, Ayurvedic, American Eclectic, Southern Folk) informs modern functional analytics to produce patient-centered care. If he's not out mountain biking, playing music, giving lectures, or going on herb walks with the Georgia Herbalists Guild, you can usually find him custom compounding herbal formulas for patients via SBCM or consulting with patients from the renowned Mederi Center in Oregon.
