Early in 2010 Dr. Carney was fortunate enough to be invited by Rip Esselstyn and Adam Reiser to become the Medical Director for their up and coming Engine 2 Immersion programs being conducted for employees of Whole Foods.
This was an opportunity of a lifetime, right in line with the Care Philosophy of Dr. Carney, and so her Medical Practice at AllMedPhysicians, pLLC now closes twice yearly while Dr. Carney, her husband, and their staff participate in the Engine 2 Immersion programs.
These programs are life changing not only for the employees at Whole Foods, but also for the staff of AllMedPhysicians and for the chefs, and other workers, at the Travaasa resort. This is a wonderful introduction to the benefits of Plant-Strong living in a very tangible, and effective (think delicious and beautiful) way.
Three superb all you care to eat Plant-Strong meals are served daily and every morning exercise options include swimming, walking up and down steep hills, hiking the trails, yoga, and fitness training.
