Heather Tallman Ruhm, MD

Heather Tallman Ruhm, MD is a Board Certified Family Physician licensed in New Hampshire with an integrative medical practice in Bedford, NH. After graduating from the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University with a Master’s Degree in Public Policy 1990 (and an emphasis in health and international development), she felt called to study medicine. She knew that her personal experience in the field would give her a more informed and credible voice for health care at large. So, she attended the University of New Mexico School of Medicine and completed her Family Medicine residency in Colorado and Alabama (where her husband attended Military College for the US Air Force) in 2003. She has since worked at two large integrative, holistic clinics – first, the Whitaker Wellness Institute in Newport Beach, California, and later, the beloved Center for Integrative Medicine in Concord, NH (until its closure in 2016). She is a passionate teacher of health and wellness, “medicine that makes sense,” with a clear emphasis on nutrition and lifestyle choices that help people improve their lives. Her clinical experience and diverse background (including a lifetime involvement in athletics – such as cycling, skiing, martial arts, and yoga – and her enthusiasm for nature and the great outdoors) carries over into her success as a public speaker (locally and nationally) and popularity as an adjunct professor at Nashua Community College.
