“The Origin of Disease: The War Within” provides a comprehensive view on the causes of chronic disease and offers a new vision for medical care, based on the diagnosis of root causes of chronic disease. We hope to enlighten doctors, patients and researchers; empower patients in dealing with the medical system; and create new avenues for research and discovery in chronic disease.

Dr. Merchant has been a family practice physician for 42 years. Carolyn Merchant has been an attorney for 37 years, and represented hundreds of patients injured by refractive surgery or by ophthalmology or optometry malpractice. Together we developed our vision for the future of medical care based on experience, research, and observation, over 40 years.

We hope you will be interested in buying a copy of our book, for a more in depth discussion on the origin of chronic diseases; and will share knowledge of the book and this page with your family and friends. The book is available at Amazon, Google, Barnes & Noble, and the Authorhouse bookstore.
