Internist
325 Dunes Blvd Suite 403 Naples FL, 34110About
Dr. Girsh is an Internist, Immunologist, Biochemist, and Pediatric Immunologist and Allergist in Naples, FL. Dr. Girsh specializes in the medical treatment of adults, children, and the elderly. Dr. Girsh has managed both common and rare diseases with poor prognosis where he has brought recovery in as little as a few days, based on double blind studies, to a few weeks. Dr. Girsh developed a treatment that is able to provide pain free, scar free healing by Building Healthy Tissue (as stated by the FDA), who also stated it is both "exciting and innovative." Dr. Girsh’s FDA lawyer stated that he had never seen such a letter of distinction in his 45 years of practice. This treatment has been successfully used in 1100 patients with results that included the successful bypassing and averting the need for previously scheduled organ transplantation such as liver, skin grafts, and hip and knee implants. Dr. Girsh utilized this information to establish his biotechnology company, Immunopath Profile LLC (IPI), in 1982: Immunology outfacing pathologic basis of disease. This therapeutic also crosses species barriers and was confirmed when applied to 33 show horses with arthritic lameness that previously had been unresponsive to several anti-arthritic therapeutics. With the administration of IPI’s transdermal therapeutics, all 33 of these very valuable show horses were saved from euthanasia and were returned to their owners. Similar results have been achieved in several hundred additional patients of poor prognosis including significant advances in dental care and TMJ. Patients with TMJ also had a two-day timeline of recovery (as observed by the double blind studies, similar to the weight bearing joints).
