More about Dr. Christian Bjerre Real, MD
I was born and raised in Ecuador, where I was deeply affected by cancer.
A close friend of mine was diagnosed in high school, and some of my close family members have either suffered through or died from cancer. These experiences taught me about the finiteness of life.
They also shaped my career. I found myself working with people struggling with cancer and other chronic diseases. I discovered along the way that even though the suffering is real and deep, there is also an opportunity for massive transformation.
I am a board-certified psychiatrist and psycho-oncologist and treat adults of all ages.
I earned my medical degree at the Catholic University of Guayaquil. I then completed my psychiatry and chief residency at Duke University Hospital, receiving numerous accolades and commendations from colleagues and clients.
Later, I completed a clinical and research fellowship in psychosomatic medicine and psycho-oncology at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
I have spent most of my adult life helping people who are struggling via medication management and psychotherapy. I have trained in leading institutions across the country. When I have felt that current cutting-edge treatment strategies in mainstream medicine have not been enough, I have also studied alternative interventions.
