A journey that changed the way he practices dentistry.
After 15 years of practicing traditional dentistry, Dr. Cornelius was diagnosed with extreme levels of mercury poisoning from years of removing mercury fillings from his patients. This began a journey of questioning everything that he had learned in dental school and continuing education over the years.
Separately, his wife was on her own journey with health issues and had found Functional Medicine to be the healing that she had sought after for years in the traditional medicine world to no avail.
Together, they “jumped off the deep end” into exploring, understanding, and implementing the most holistic lifestyle possible. This immediately overflowed into Dr. Cornelius’ practice.
As you will often hear him quote, “I can not unlearn what I have now learned on my quest for truth and understanding of the human body”.
He is a wealth of information and loves sharing what he has learned on his journey with his family, friends, team, and patients.
I’m so pleased to have a holistic dental practice here in San Antonio. I no longer have to fly across the country for my care. Dr. Cornelius and staff are very professional, polite, and caring. I’m actually looking forward to going to the dentist and getting proper care done!
What an outstanding office! Dr. Cornelius and his team are incredibly educated, friendly, and caring. I appreciate their focus on whole-health wellness and how that relates to our teeth and oral health. If you’re looking for a dental practice that aligns with holistic care, this is an excellent choice!
I’m 59 years old and have never enjoyed going to the dentist. Until now. Kind, compassionate, caring, are just a few of the positives I can say I experienced from every single member of the team. They removed 6 mercury fillings and replaced them and it wasn’t easy but the love and comfort that I felt during and after the procedure is what got me through it.
