To achieve optimum health, there must be a balance between the physical and psychological aspects of life. At Center Point Medicine, with offices in San Diego, California, La Jolla, California, and Syracuse, New York, the caring, dedicated staff believes that psychological factors can be precursors to the development of illness. Stress and anxiety may also be responsible for patients having a diminished response to medical treatments.


Dr. Ran D. Anbar and his dedicated team of health care providers offer unique health services to help patients overcome psychological roadblocks or use the power of their minds to improve their overall health. A recognized leader in hypnosis techniques, Dr. Anbar uses various pediatric hypnosis and counseling methods to bring about positive change in both the physical and mental health of each patient.


In addition to in-office hypnosis treatment, Dr. Anbar, Dr. Danielle Aretz, Dr. Nadia Sarwar, and experienced nurse practitioners Amy Chambers, Sherrie Jacoby, and Christine Sullivan, teach patients how to use hypnosis on their own through focusing inwardly and directing their attention toward the positive. Hypnosis techniques can be taught in just minutes to patients as young as four years old.
