"The most effective treatments are those which address the underlying cause of health challenges while considering the individuality of every patient." - Dennis Fera, MD
Welcome to Holistic Health & Medicine in Hillsborough, NC
HH&M was founded in 1994 as one of the first holistic medical practices in the country. Dennis Fera, MD, the founder, is the doctor who you will see when you set up an appointment with the MD. Holistic Medicine is a field of study unto itself and you can be certain you’ll receive the medical insights of an MD with more than 30 years of holistic medical experience, in addition to his traditional medical training and experience.
Given the overwhelming and ever-increasing number of holistic options to choose from, we have learned through over 30yrs of patient application of holistic clinical options, what IV’s, remedies, therapies and approaches are most likely to yield the best outcomes within the fastest time frame. Many holistic solutions have overlapping benefits, yet some, when given to patients with various health conditions, will work far better than others or conversely, not at all. Direct patient/clinical experience combined with a dedication to continuing education, is the best teacher. At this time in his career, Dr. Fera is, for a number of MDs, their point of reference with regard to best patient care and application of various holistic IVs & therapies.
Chronic Joint or Connective Tissue Pain? We may have your answer...
We’ve seen 1000’s of patients each (the MD & Naturopath), and have had successful outcomes for those looking to optimize their health as well as for many who were told “there is no hope.” Of course we can never make any promises, but we are blessed to be able to refer to a vast resource of over 30 years of clinical experience with a plethora of holistic approaches to care; we've been around a while and have learned a thing or two.
At Holistic Health & Medicine, we believe the human body has the profound ability to avert negative genetic predispositions (epigenetics), regenerate and heal itself when provided with safe and effective, natural means of detoxification, hormonal balance and nutritional support.

Testimonials
We treat our patients as we ourselves would like to be treated, and although we can’t cure every condition, we do our best to put forth all we know to do, to at the very least lesson the symptoms and/or occurrence until we discover a new treatment and/or treatment approach to cure the root cause of an imbalance. On the other hand, because we take as natural an approach to healing as possible, many of our patients report that not only was their main concern totally alleviated, but many other never mentioned symptoms and concerns were also healed.
- "I know there are other people out there in the same situation I was in. I had been to doctor after doctor after doctor for years and I was only getting worse. I was dying. Dr. Fera and Holistic Health and Medicine kept me alive with alternative treatments that did not cause the damage that traditional medicine did. I just want people to know where they can get real help, compassion, caring, professionalism, and where they can learn some things about their own bodies. Holistic Health and Medicine."Alease"He told me it was ludicrous to keep loading up with toxins when one of my goals in coming to him was to detoxify my body. He convinced me that age 50 was exactly the right time for me to go down a new path to good health...The simple truth is that after working with Dr. Fera for just four months I feel more fit, more completely healthy, than at any time I can remember in my entire life. I'm just getting better every day."Danny"...My vision at all times was exactly like looking at the snow on a TV screen when the reception is very poor...Quite honestly, I felt a little drunk after my first chelation treatment. But then a miracle occured: as a friend was driving me home, my field of vision cleared completely. I started to cry, I was so relieved and pleased. I finally believed I was going to get well and overcome this difficult problem."Kay
- "I began to notice positive changes almost immediately. And by the time I completed the full course of chelation, my energy was back to the 20-lawns-a-week level, and I was free of chest pains and shortness of breath. But most surprising of all to me was the effect of chelation on my mental abilities. My memory improved noticeably...Before chelation, I often felt had a kind of brain fog. And now that fog has lifted completely."Carl"I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia 19 years ago, at the age of 28, before it was even called fibromyalgia. The pain has been unrelenting...I've experienced incredible relief since I've been doing the neural therapy. I had my fifth treatment last Wednesday, and my body achieved a state of floating relaxation that I have never felt before. Neural therapy has helped me break the cycle."Carol"This place is amazing! They have wonderful, caring staff, and Dr. Fera is the first doctor to truly help my family’s health improve. The front desk lady was very compassionate when I first called in, and she kindly directed me on how to get started with the Merdian Assessment Test with Marla. The test was very accurate in determining my needs. I highly recommend others to try this place out to improve their health!"Suzanne, Google Review
