Positive direction for personal health based on diet, exercise and stress management.

I have been plant based since 1977 and have been teaching it to patients since I began practice of cardiology in 1990. I have placed tens of thousands of tens but I have placed more copies of Forks over Knives in patients! I am the author of 3 books, hundreds of articles including the Huffington post, TV personality and speaker. Find more at www.drjoelkahn.com

I specialize in homoeopathy, Psychotherapy, Clinical Hypnotherapy, and have been advising whole food plant based nutrition to my patients. Have witnessed amazing disease reversals using just WFPB nutrition. Currently training doctors at a reputed homoeopathic institution in Mumbai on healing through WFPB nutrition.

The WFPB dietary approach is the cornerstone of the needed paradigm shift in health care. I don’t sell supplements or gadgets. Instead, I hope to educate, coach and guide my patients towards better health through better lifestyle choices.

I focus on lifestyle medicine and chronic disease reversal through plant-based living in my private practice telemedicine practice. I see patients all over California and I am board certified in Preventive Medicine and Public Health.

I’m Dr. Mitchel Schwindt and am a board-certified physician who focuses on helping my coaching clients and patients achieve an optimized life. The concepts of functional medicine step past the normal boundaries of traditional western medicine and get to the core issues that keep people from achieving their best self. My coaching and courses focus on those concepts and distill the complex into simple digestible bites to help you reach your full potential. By going upstream of health problems, functional medicine targets the root cause and cultivates the restoration of health. My coaching practice encompasses a broad spectrum of health and wellness concepts to get you to the next level. My formal training began in emergency medicine physician, but I’ve practiced in a variety of clinical settings. I completed his residency at Butterworth Hospital in Grand Rapids, Michigan. As part of Michigan State University, Butterworth was renamed Spectrum Health, and is one of the busiest level 1 emergency and trauma centers in the United States. I had the privilege of serving as chief resident my final year. Also, while there I was inducted into Alpha Omega Alpha, a prestigious medical honor society. My favorite aspect of emergency medicine was working as a flight physician (helicopter) for an aeromedical organization. I even wrote a book about my experiences and how it shaped my outlook on life and medicine (see side bar to the right). I have served on many committees and steering groups related to health care, quality and process improvement, but find my passion lies in interacting with people, patients and students and not sitting in a stuffy board room. I like to volunteer as a physician for local sporting and martial arts events. my children and I are passionate about animal rights are volunteer weekly at the local animal shelter and love bonding with the animals. In my free time, I love competing in triathlons, skiing, water sports, time with family, foreign travel and pursuing entrepreneurial activities. I’m also a plant powered chef and you can find my creations on my instagram page. The greatest degree of inner tranquility comes from the development of love and compassion. The more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. — Tenzin Gyatso

His goal is to support patients, families and their broader communities in living more meaningful and effective lives. His approach includes empowering patients through strong relationships, community resources and cutting edge technology. He has spent time developing tools and curriculum to optimize health throughout his career.

Growing up in India, I’ve always held a holistic view of health, believing deeply in an intricate mind-body connection and the important role it plays in one’s health and wellbeing.
My lifestyle medicine journey began when I attended a Food Is Medicine conference and first listened to a presentation from Dr. Scott Stoll. In his talk, Dr. Stoll offered a wealth of scientific data and convinced me that simple lifestyle changes could have a profound effect on disease prevention, treatment, and reversal.
Inspired, I incorporated these changes into my own life and saw benefits. I began talking to my patients as well and was pleasantly surprised to learn that with education and encouragement, they were eager to make changes in their own lifestyles, too.
Further encouraged, I continued my education by attending conferences and became certified in Plant-Based Nutrition through e-Cornell. I also completed training as a Complete Health Improvement Program (CHIP) facilitator and became certified in American Board of Lifestyle Medicine to gain the ability to lead health-centered programs that focus on a lifestyle change.
My continued passion and enthusiasm for the approach inspired me to advocate for lifestyle medicine at Midland Health and champion the idea of creating a lifestyle medicine center to offer a variety of comprehensive lifestyle intervention programs under physician supervision. It has led me to my current role as the Medical Director of the Lifestyle Medicine Center at Midland Health. In my private practice, I offer high-quality, evidence-based care that incorporates the core principles of lifestyle medicine. I have also co-founded a non-profit organization called Healthy City to further raise awareness of the benefits of plant-based nutrition within our community. I also serve as vice president of the Midland Quality Alliance, a clinically integrated network of physicians, and as a board member of the Midland Chamber of Commerce.
What I have witnessed in the years since I first heard Dr. Stoll speak is nothing short of miraculous. I’ve seen amazing stories of disease reversal, life-changing transformations, and testimonies of empowerment and hope. Lifestyle medicine has brought joy and meaning to my professional work and I am excited about what the future holds for its power to transform our healthcare system.
