I am a board-certified Internal Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine physician and work with people to help prevent, treat, and even (with some conditions) reverse disease.  As part of someone’s health we talk about nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress, and support system and these all play critical roles in health.
In addition to the in-office/telemedicine visits, patients and community members are welcome to attend the Walk With A Doc monthly walks at the Ventura Pier (currently held as an education over Zoom due to COVID-19) or other group visits for education, support, or to ask questions.  
I am part of a larger medical group (Dignity Health) and we accept almost all insurance plans. 

Medical Director at the Health for Life Medical Centre in Kingston, Ontario, Canada.  We provide a team-based Lifestyle Medicine approach to assist our clients to achieve Optimal health.

Dr. Abendroth is dual board certified by the American Board of Family Medicine and the American Board of Lifestyle Medicine. In May 2020 he opened Sana Vita Health, a Direct Primary Care and Lifestyle Medicine clinic. Direct Primary Care is a revolutionary new model of healthcare delivery that puts the focus back on the doctor-patient relationship, instead of focusing on the paperwork and billing. You can learn more about DPC at www.dpcnation.org.
 
At Sana Vita Health you can call, email, or even text Dr. Abendroth! Many issues can be handled remotely, but when you do want or need to come in, you’ll find a relaxing, well-appointed boutique-like atmosphere with one exam room that also serves as Dr. Abendroth’s office, a small private waiting room (you’ll never wait with other patients!), and a clean, luxurious bathroom that is ADA accessible.

Dr. Queler is double board certified in Lifestyle Medicine, as well as, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation; he is fellowship trained in non-surgical orthopedic spine pain management; completed training with: the Helms Medical Institute in Medical Acupuncture; the Lifestyle Medicine Institute as a CHIP facilitator; ROUXBE’s Plantrician Project Culinary Rx plant based cooking course.
Dr. Queler’s philosophy is that given the the current healthcare crisis, epidemic of non-communicable chronic disease, and unsustainable impact of the human race on planet Earth, it is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society and environment.
Subsequently, Dr. Queler feels it is his mandate to practice stewardship of not only his body, but also from the workld we borrow from future generations.  For obtaining optimal health will not only dramatically affect one’s life, but also the life of those we love and the world. Subsequently, he apsires to empower patients, families and the community at large to apply evidence-based lifestyle therapeutic approaches in order to simulatneously address our individual and collective: health, humaniatrian, and environmental impact.
