—THE PERSON BEHIND HEALING INTELLIGENCE
About Robert McDermott, MD
The Exam Room Has Been His Classroom for More Than Two Decades

One Discovery.
A HEALING WAY FORWARD
What the Bedside
Taught Him
Dr. Robert McDermott is a board-certified allergist and immunologist who has spent more than two decades in the exam room — the classroom he calls the bedside.
Through over 20,000 patient encounters, his own journey with dyslexia and melanoma, and a career marked by both healing and burnout, he discovered something that medical school never taught him.
There is a third form of human intelligence, and it is the most important skill a healer can possess.
He Calls It Healing Intelligence®
Lessons Learned from the Exam Room as a Doctor and Patient, is the definitive text on HiQ™ — and the first in a series of co-authored books applying Healing Intelligence to law enforcement, education, parenting, leadership, and beyond.
