Weill Cornell Medicine Events

Integrative Health Presentation at the New York Public Library

Come learn about integrative medicine, a field that focuses on the whole person (body, mind, and spirit) and incorporates therapeutic and preventive practices to achieve optimal health and wellbeing.

Join Weill Cornell Medicine for a Wellness Seminar on integrative health at the Yorkville Library.

Alka Gupta, M.D., an Assistant Professor of Medicine at Weill Cornell Medicine, has spent the last few years examining national and global advances in integrative health care. Her interest in integrative and internal medicine began at a young age, and is rooted in the concept of food as medicine. She believes that prevention and a healthy lifestyle should be at the forefront of health care, and she works to bring these principles into practice.

Dr. Gupta serves as a Steering Committee member for the Academic Consortium for Integrative Medicine and Health. The goals of the Consortium include: supporting academic leaders in integrative medicine, disseminating research outcomes and educational resources, informing health care policy and practice, and leading the effort to transform America’s health care system to one that promotes an integrative and comprehensive approach.
