AHMA Founding Member Passes Away

 

Walt StollDr. Walter Stoll, one of AHMA's charter members, died on Friday, Aug. 12. He practiced for 30 years as a board certified family practitioner, was the author of several books, and hosted the website  askwaltstollmd.com.  He was also the initiator of the Stoll Foundation for Holistic Health.  AHMA acknowledges Dr. Stoll as one who helped pave the way for the growth and acceptance of holistic medicine, and a brave advocate for the physician's right to practice it.
