"The Davis Holistic Health Center Has Closed
"After serving Davis and the surrounding communities for 28 years, as of May 31st, the Davis Holistic Health Center has permanently closed its doors. Despite all our efforts to remain open, we found that, when the lease expired, the rent was set beyond our reach. So, we made the very difficult decision to close the center. While I am sad that this has happened, I understand that I must enter a new chapter in my life and hope that you all can understand that this was going to happen at some point anyway. It just came a bit sooner than I had hoped. I am thankful for the many people that have supported me and the center over the years. First, I want to thank all our patients who chose us to provide them with quality holistic care. It has been an honor to serve all of you and I wish all of you the best Secondly, I would like to thank all the teachers and practitioners that have worked at the center and supported our vision as they have worked to serve our community with integrative care. Third, I would like to give special thanks to our staff who have worked hard to listen and respond to everyone’s needs. Thank you for giving your best to help all who have sought our care. It has been a privilege to provide care and support to everyone and I sincerely hope that you can find other dedicated and talented practitioners to support you and your family.
"Blessings to you all!
"Brian Dempsey
