Meet Our Doctors

The four medical doctors who founded MDbio are specialists with notable, successful careers at premier American hospitals and medical centers in Southern California. Through the course of their respective practices, encompassing over 80 combined years of patient care, our founders have written thousands of pharmaceutical prescriptions for their patients. Over the years, however, it became increasingly clear to the doctors that the drugs they proscribed to alleviate conditions regarding sleep, anxiety, pain, and immunity, were, unfortunately, a double-edged sword. While the drugs definitely worked to some degree, in a significant percentage of cases they also had toxic, harmful, or addictive impacts on patients.
