An accessible experience in holistic medical education
Rockwell provides an incredibly fulfilling and affordable dive into multiple branches of holistic medicine. While I think an essay/dissertation should still be required for all specialties, I appreciate Rockwell's attention to accessibility by graduating students after taking the rigorous curriculum. I studied Functional Medicine with them and can confirm learning a wealth of information that, while a holistic medical discipline, include vast amounts of allopathic medicine material. I highly recommend Rockwell for anyone looking to enter and specialize in a modality within holistic medicine.

Hi Sarah, We’re so glad to hear you found the program both fulfilling and valuable. Functional Medicine is such an empowering subject to learn about and practice! While the essay is no longer required in the updated modules, in place of tests, quizzes, and extensive required reading, students are still welcome to submit one for review if they’d like to be considered for graduating with honors and for publication in our peer-reviewed journal, which we’ll be launching later this year. Wishing you the best as you move forward in your practice, and thanks again for your kind feedback. Warmly, Alexandra
