Ask Dr. Ron Radio Show Information
It began in the late 1990s when Boston area based alternative health practitioner, Dr. Ron Cherubino was invited to be interviewed on two local radio stations. Response was excellent and he soon became a once a week regular on WJLT AM. The Ask Dr. Ron segment became The Ask Dr. Ron Show, a call-in talk show which now aired to a growing drive-time audience.
In the spring and summer of 2001 talks began with a New York City-based company to syndicate the show nationally. Dr. Ron often tells the story of how he and Tim Horton finalized their negotiations. "We felt like kids that had been taken to the big city. We kept looking up at the high-rise buildings as we walked on the streets below. We were impressed with the suites of our would-be sponsors. They occupied the 28th floor of a building directly next to the south tower of the World Trade Center. I remember looking out of a window on the 28th floor and not being able to see the top of the tower. I'll never forget sitting at lunch in the heart of the World Trade Center looking up through the glass ceiling. I could see both towers simultaneously. It was surreal." The syndication never came about; in reality it was never able to make it past 9/11. The towers went down and so did the relatively little 28 story building directly next door.
The Ask Dr. Ron Show continued to air in the Boston area. More and more people were helped at the Cherubino Health Center and an Ask Dr. Ron website was developed as an additional support for patients and listeners.
In the spring of 2007 the show picked up a broader audience due to podcasting and online streaming. One-on-one telephone consultations with Dr. Ron and other practitioners at the center were implemented in order to better meet the needs of people across the country. The center has also put into action various programs that enable people to travel to the center and receive intensive care treatment which ranges in duration from several days to several weeks. Once the person returns home, consultations and e-mail advice provide ongoing support when needed. The Cherubino Health Center is also able to assist in locating local practitioners when the need arises. Intensive care has been a benefit to people from as close as Rhode Island to as far away as India.
While the Ask Dr. Ron Show remains most focused on helping people in the Boston and New England area, people nationwide tell us that they find the shows informative and entertaining. The mission of the show remains the same, to reach as many hurting people as possible with information that can bring them hope, healing and health.
