Dr. Carolle Jean-Murat, MD grew up in Haiti within a family of natural healers, shamans, herbalists, and midwives. Inspired by the miracles she witnessed daily-such as a birth midwifed by her mother and her own recovery from serious illness through her grandfather, an indigenous healer, after modern medicine had failed-she developed a desire to provide both compassionate attention and medical care to those in need.
Studying medicine in Mexico, Jamaica, and the United States, Dr. Carolle eventually opened her own private practice as an obstetrician and gynecologist in San Diego, where she sought to provide effective treatment to all, regardless of social or economic class.
In Daily Miracles, the second book in Dr. Carolle's four-book series, A Day in the Life of a Healer, Dr. Carolle shares many riveting stories about her long and varied career, ranging from her experiences as a medical student to her years as an established physician providing care from a broad-spectrum, whole-being perspective. Her accounts are both startling and miraculous-working with cadavers in medical school, learning the nuances of different cultures' approaches to medicine, and both saving lives and assisting new ones into the world.
Through succinct vignettes, Dr. Carolle provides behind-the-scenes glimpses into the medical field-and reveals the heart of a doctor with a true desire to help others.
About the Author: Dr. Carolle Jean-Murat, MD was born in 1950 and raised in Haiti within a family of indigenous healers-including herbalists, shamans, and midwives-who inspired her to help others in need. She studied medicine at universities in Mexico, Jamaica, and the United States and has worked in both impoverished areas and technologically advanced hospitals.
A fellow of the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, Dr. Carolle maintained a private practice in San Diego, California, from 1982 to 2005. Choosing to close this practice allowed her to devote more of her personal time to patients and to their overall well-being. She founded the Dr. Carolle Wellness & Retreat Center of San Diego as well as her own nonprofit charity, the Health through Communication Foundation, both of which provide necessary care to all, including the poor and underprivileged.
