William B. Ferril, M.D. earned a Bachelor of Science degree in biochemistry and a doctorate in medicine at UC Davis, California. He completed his post-graduate education at Sacred Heart Medical Center in Spokane, Washington in 1986. For most of the past 38 years, he has practiced on the Flathead Indian Reservation in western Montana. It was there that Dr. Ferril gleaned experience for the topics in his books and recognized the benefit of holistic medicine. He shares his holistic approach to care in the following four books he authored: The Body Heals, Glandular Failure-Caused Obesity, Healing Has One Side Effect, and most recently, The Unseen Hand.
Since childhood, Dr Ferril has remained fascinated with answering the mystery of why some people age gracefully while others do not. Over his career, he has lectured hundreds of doctors on the biochemistry of steroids, interpreted thousands of food allergy tests and helped thousands of patients recover from chronic illness with his science based treatment plans.
​
Dr. Ferril strives to address the underlying causes of health care issues and not just the symptoms. He remains loyal to prevention as he and his patients address not only how to get well from their health issues, but how to stay well while minimizing drugs and harmful procedures. Dr. Ferril treats each patient as an individual person.
​
Midway into his medical career, Dr. Ferril invested five years to study forgotten truths about how the body heals. Over the past 19 years in his practice, Dr. Ferril has put this knowledge to use and has enjoyed watching his patients' health improve using these complementary methods of holistic medicine.

Digestion
Are you giving your body what it needs and craves to optimize weight loss?

Notes from Dr. Ferril
My initial academic pursuit led me to a degree in biochemistry, anchoring my perspectives in favor of mainstream 'evidence-based medicine.' However, as time passed, a disconcerting reality emerged—the prevalent tendency of 'evidence-based medicine' to be tainted by the selective consideration of scientific evidence, often driven by profit-seeking motives.
The present predicament is that crucial aspects of scientific evidence are frequently overlooked, leaving a void in the holistic understanding of health. Conditions associated with middle-age degeneration, such as high blood pressure, autoimmune diseases, fibromyalgia, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, osteoporosis, fatigue, and obesity, possess viable scientific solutions. The key lies in uncovering and applying often neglected scientific principles.
​
This realization serves as the foundation for my latest endeavor, "The Unseen Hand." In this book, I delve into the intricacies of healing from the myriad afflictions listed above. By shedding light on the overlooked aspects of scientific knowledge, I aim to empower individuals to navigate and apply these insights in their journey toward improved health and well-being.
