Dr Letterio Taormina, MD

General Practitioner, Specialist in Traditional Chinese Acupuncture and Phytotherapy

My Professional Journey
I graduated in Medicine between Palermo and Hamburg, choosing to dedicate myself to Family Medicine by completing the Specialty Training in General Practice. My interest in community healthcare and prehospital medicine inspired me to enhance my skills by obtaining the title of Prehospital Emergency Physician at the Parma Health Authority (AUSL).
Believing in the deep connection between humans and the nature surrounding them, I gradually explored ancient Eastern medical traditions, with a particular focus on Chinese medicine. This journey led me to specialize in Acupuncture at the University of Verona. Additionally, I pursued a Postgraduate Master's degree in Applied Phytotherapy, enriching my approach to integrative care.
My passion for the healing power of plants led me to delve deeper into this field, earning a professional certification as an expert in cultivating, processing, and identifying medicinal and wild edible plants at the Laimburg Agricultural School in Bolzano
I constantly expand my expertise in clinical nutrition, integrative medicine, preventive care, mind-body balance, and longevity.

My Approach
I have practiced as a general practitioner in both Sicily and South Tyrol, gaining over a decade of clinical experience in the field, always focusing on a patient-centered approach.
The foundation of my medical practice is built on empathy, attentive listening, thorough observation, and time. These essential elements are often enough to accurately assess most patients. From an integrative medicine perspective, I approach diagnosis and treatment by combining Western methods with Eastern techniques. In my clinic, evidence-based medicine seamlessly integrates with ancient energetic practices to foster optimal health and lasting mind-body harmony.

My Areas of Expertise
As a general practitioner, I address a wide range of clinical conditions. By integrating Western medical science with ancient knowledge, it becomes possible to manage symptoms that may not fully respond to conventional therapies. Practices such as acupuncture, dietary therapy, massage, exercise, and meditation are not only effective for treating illnesses but also play a crucial role in prevention, promoting better health and overall well-being.

Why the ADLER Med Method?
I chose to join the ADLER Med-Sicilia team because it became immediately clear that we share the same vision of health. Health, as a state of psycho-physical balance, is to be sought not only through classical prevention (nutrition, exercise, moderation) but also through a connection with our natural world. Wild and majestic mountains, fertile hills, pristine forests, all the way down to our crystal-clear sea. At Adler, nature is not just a backdrop; it is the true paradigm, the primary instrument of care.
