About Me

Initially I had all of the information about me thrown together on one giant page. This seemed really cumbersome, so I ended up separating the sections out. This main page includes a brief bio of me and a bit about my personal interests. Subpages include:

1. My Resume: This lists my training and experience, professional affiliations, past interviews (with links to the audio files in many cases), and publications (there are also links to the journal articles, which can be downloaded as files from my PDF Gallery here...)

2. My Q & A: These are the answers to some of the questions I'm often asked on interviews.

3. My Topic List: These are some of the many topics that I'm willing to discuss during shows, speaking engaments, or interviews.

To read more about my books and textbook chapters, please check out the links under "publications."

My Bio

Dr. Pamela Heath was born and raised in Missouri. She obtained a BA in psychology from the University of Missouri in Columbia in 1976, and an MD from the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston in 1980. Dr. Heath became Board Certified in Anesthesiology in 1985 and practiced medicine at a variety of locations, including serving as Chief of Anesthesia in Humana Hospital-Abilene, as Director of Education for the Anesthesia Department and a member of the Surgery Faculty in Orlando Regional Medical Center, on the faculty of Anesthesia at the University of Florida in Miami, and for two years as Chief of Anesthesia at Chinle Hospital on the Navaho Reservation.

Dr. Heath began having spontaneous psychic experiences in the early 1990s. In 1995, she returned to school for a second doctorate degree (Psy.D.), this time in parapsychology from the American School of Professional Psychology and Rosebridge Graduate School of Integrative Psychology in California. Her dissertation, a phenomenological study on mind-matter interaction experiences was completed in 1999.

Dr. Heath has worked with the Office of Paranormal Investigations alongside Loyd Auerbach since 1996. Dr. Heath is a full member of the Parapsychological Association, an Associate of the Society for Psychical Research, and co-founder of the Paranormal Research Organization. She has published journal articles and textbook chapters on psychokinesis, place memory, experiential research, and the survival of bodily death. Her current books include The PK Zone and Suicide: What Really Happens in the Afterlife? (now also available in Spanish). She has appeared on television as both as a parapsychologist and a psychic.

Dr. Heath currently lives in the Bay Area of California, and divides her time between writing, painting, practicing medicine, and doing field investigations. She has been a guest lecturer on psi and experiential research at a variety of locations. In addition, she loves rugby, and is a passionate All Blacks fan.
