Board certified in Family Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine; personal trainer, and FRN Certified Plant based coach. Living in New Zealand, where I am unable to practice medicine, so working as a lifestyle medicine and plant based coach.

I am a dual-board certified physician in Family Practice and Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine/Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine (NMM/OMM) who brings decades of clinical and academic expertise to my patient-centered practice. I earned my Doctorate of Osteopathic Medicine and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Michigan State University. Throughout my journey in helping people heal I’ve been continuously educated, inspired, and amazed by my patients. Whatever their journeys have been that brought them into my practice I’ve continued to identify and encourage their connection to their own health.

Most recently I’ve integrated the 6-pillars of Lifestlye Medicine into my practice in a very intentional manner. As an osteopath, my practice already contained these pillars. Yet, by digging deeper into the Lifestyle Medicine literature, I’ve augmented my body, mind, and spirit practices to seamlessly integrate hands-on OMM with a plant-based, whole-food dietary approach to target the underlying drivers of disease, such as systemic inflammation and cellular damage caused by free radicals. Additionally, I have enjoyed using the latest evidence-based resources to treat pain, reduce chronic health burdens, optimize metabolic health, and restore long-term vitality.

Uyen Chu, MD, FACS, has made an extraordinary transition from celebrated surgeon to longevity medicine pioneer. At Chu Precision Health Center in Lafayette, Louisiana, Dr. Chu applies two decades of surgical precision to preventive medicine, offering Bio Blueprint Analysis and personalized protocols that address root causes before surgery becomes necessary.
After performing over 1,000 surgeries, Dr. Chu realized she was “treating consequences, not causes.” Her current practice specializes in weight management, hormone optimization, brain health preservation, and performance medicine—utilizing advanced biomarker testing and 60-minute consultations that contrast sharply with traditional medicine’s time constraints.
Surgical Foundation Dr. Chu’s preventive expertise is anchored by distinguished surgical training. She earned her Medical Degree from the LSU Health New Orleans School of Medicine in 1993, completed a General Surgery Residency at the University of Florida Health Science Center, and pursued fellowship training in minimally invasive surgery at the University of Kentucky College of Medicine.
Since moving to Acadiana in 2001, Dr. Chu has pioneered surgical innovations, becoming the first surgeon in Louisiana to perform robotic weight loss surgery in 2013. Since, she has completed over 700 robotic procedures while maintaining an annual caseload of 400+ surgeries, establishing herself as a pivotal figure in regional healthcare.
The Prevention Evolution Throughout two decades as a bariatric surgeon, Dr. Chu gained profound insights into obesity’s complexities and weight management challenges. This experience revealed surgical intervention’s limitations and inspired her transition to precision medicine. Today, she combines surgical expertise with longevity medicine, creating personalized protocols that optimize health span and prevent the conditions she once treated surgically.

Hello! I am a physician specializing in General Preventive Medicine and Public Health and Lifestyle Medicine and am excited to work with individuals on their health goals through the evidence-based pillars of lifestyle medicine. I have spent most of my career in global health, mainly in Africa and SE Asia. In developing global guidelines and working with clinical teams to adapt and implement these health algorithms for chronic conditions in different countries and regions, I learned firsthand how important it is to talk about food, movement, treatment plans, and overall health in the context of patients’ goals and life situations. This is what I do with patients in my practice. I believe in a team approach to health care and work with patients to meet them where they are at in their own health journey and empower them to move towards where they want to be.

I am a family medicine and lifestyle medicine specialist who moved to Guam after losing my home and medical practice in the 2018 Camp Fire disaster in Paradise, California. After two years serving the people of Micronesia, I accepted a position as medical director of the Rocky Mountain Lifestyle Center in Denver, Colorado. I have now transitioned into a new position with AdventHealth as a primary care physician at Advent Health Family Medicine – Castle Pines in Castle Pines, Colorado. I am board-certified in family medicine and lifestyle medicine. I’m a founding member of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine. I enjoy helping individuals regain health through plant-based nutrition, exercise, and other lifestyle changes.

I obtained my medical degree at Loma Linda School of Medicine in Loma Linda, California. Following graduation from Loma Linda University, I completed residency training in family medicine at Hinsdale Hospital near Chicago. During residency, I gave health lectures in Poland, Russia, and Serbia.

​I became interested in lifestyle medicine while in residency. I enjoyed seeing patients experience dramatic health improvements at Lifestyle Center of America during six years of medical practice at this residential Intensive Therapeutic Lifestyle Change (ITLC) program in Sulphur, Oklahoma. Before joining AdventHealth, I served as medical director at Rocky Mountain Lifestyle Center in Denver, Colorado.

​To share with a wider audience principles leading to exciting health improvements, I co-hosted Total Health, a weekly radio talk show aired over 91.9 FM, JoyFM Radio Guam, and continued this passion in Denver on KPLS AM 1500. Also, I have authored the book, “Dr Arnott’s 24 Realistic Ways to Improve Your Health”, now also available in Spanish.

​I met my wife, Sylvia, while in residency training at Hinsdale Hospital. We have three children. We enjoy spending time together in nature, formerly in the coral reefs of Guam, and now in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. I also enjoy scuba diving, backpacking, off-roading, bird watching, Pickleball, and medical mission trips with my family.
