Meet Our Staff

Cindi deWet

Cindi has been co-owner of Quantum Healing Institute along with her husband, Dr. Pieter DeWet for more than a decade now. She delights in applying her broad knowledge of alternative healing along with her love of people into her daily practice.  After 19 years in alternative medicine and over 15 years of extensive study, Cindi will graduate soon with both her Master Herbology degree and a Ph.D in Naturopathy and Metaphysical Sciences. She has numerous certifications in a wide variety of wellness principles.  

 As a practitioner of Naturopathy, Herbology and Nutrition she is often asked "Why alternative versus conventional medicine?" Her response, "I believe in the simple path, the old way and I want to see people get well, totally well, rather than just cover up and treat a symptom." In addition, Cindi has helped patients learn that food is medicine for life and we should eat to live.  Her favorite thing is Spiritual Counseling and she loves to help patients get out of the “stress cycle” and regain full control of their lives and live with joy again!

Cindi currently resides in Tyler, Texas.  She has raised 7 children naturally.  She is also a competition dancer, lyricist, artist, poet and writer. She likes to run and has done a few 5K's and is working toward her first half marathon. She loves to play the Native American flute and combine meditation with drumming.

Quote from Vanessa: “Several years ago while working at a bank I was fortunate to meet Dr. deWet and his wife Cindi. Through meeting them I was introduced to holistic and alternative medicine. I wish I had known years before that this type of health care existed. I had worked in the medical field many years ago and was glad when the opportunity presented itself to enter the field of holistic health care. This past 6 years has been the most phenomenal time of growth for me and it is an honor for me to be able to assist our patients in any way possible so that they can achieve optimal health. I count myself very fortunate to work for a doctor who is so fully and compassionately dedicated to his patients. My love for music and nature has only been enhanced by a greater awareness of what complex creatures we are, how great our potential for healing is, and how wonderfully complete God made us.”
