""You've got to find a place where you can make a difference - that's what makes your life significant,"" he explains, invoking one of his favorite sayings: ' There are three kinds of people in this world - those who make things happen, those who watch things happen, and those who wonder what happened?' We want to be in that first category, making good things happen. Dr. Williams is an American acupuncturist, integrative medicine physician, and writer. He has authored six health books and programs, two non-fiction memoirs about Peruvian shamanism, and a work of poetry. He has written numerous articles and academic papers published in -58- David Lucas peer-reviewed journals.

His blogs focus on balanced and practical health information based on evidence-based research and his forty years of clinical experience.
