He earned his MPH in public health nutrition, and a doctorate in health promotion and disease prevention, both from Loma Linda University.

Gerard D. McLane, DrPH, CHES
Director of Health Promotion

What do Canada, Singapore, Thailand, Guam, California, Illinois, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Portland, Oregon, all have in common? Dr. Gerard McLane has lived in each of these places at one time or another in his life. Fortunately for Wellsource, Inc., Portland is now where Dr. McLane and his family call home. 

As a wellness trainer, medical consultant, and now Director of Health Promotion for Wellsource, Dr. McLane is turning his years of experience with Eight Weeks to Wellness™ and other Wellsource programs into an enormous benefit for communities worldwide. “There are three main reasons why I’m excited to be working here at Wellsource,” says Dr. Gerard. “One, I love the creativity of developing tools for healthy living for community markets and churches. Two, I get to work with Dr. Hall and his creative genius, and his incredible staff. And three, my family and I get to be near the great Pacific Northwest waterways.”  They are avid water-skiers, wake boarders, hikers, and cyclists.

He and his wife Kathryn, a registered nurse, have presented health and cooking seminars around the world. Based on the success of these public meetings, they authored a popular book, Tastefully Vegan—Creative Vegetarian Cooking, and continue to host health seminars wherever they go.

Dr. McLane holds a Masters and a Doctorate degree in Public Health from Loma Linda University. He is a Founding Member of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, a Certified Health Education Specialist, and a Certified Nutrition Specialist. He has also served as a radio host and a TV health expert on CNN International World News and the Three Angels Broadcasting Network.
