SUZANNAH BOZZONE, MD For years, I was prescribing medicine I wouldn’t take myself and frustrated by the seemingly incurable state of our most prevalent, deadly and costly chronic diseases. Finally, I found Lifestyle Medicine, which is not only strongly evidence-based, but resonates with my desire to treat myself, my family and my patients more in accordance with nature’s guidance and, most importantly, addressing diseases from their root causes, rather than covering up symptoms. Best of all, this method empowers patients, rather than dictating dependence on our pharmaceutically-driven medical system. Dr. Bozzone moved to the Chattanooga area from Sonoma, CA, where she worked for six years in private practice and community health. She previously served as the Medical Director of Wellness at Sonoma Valley Hospital. Dr. Bozzone is happily married with three young children and loves to swim, practice yoga and sing in any spare moment she can find.

Read more…Since going plant based ten years ago, I  have been able to restore my own health and also help my patients wean off medications .  It all started by attending a lecture by T Colin Campbell that showed the link between what you eat and cancer , which has plaqued my family .  So, I was curious to learn more , so I purchased his book : The China Study .  While reading it , I slowly pushed the animal products out off of my plate .  I decided to go full plant based for just a week to see if I could do it .  Then, I kept going  and after one month, I was able to wean off my blood pressure medications and acid reflux medication ( that I used for fifteen years ) .  Â
 Since then, I have read up to 35 books on the topic of plant based nutrition , regulary listen to plant based podcasts ( Rich Roll, The Exam Room , PBN , No Meat Athlete , PlantStrong ) .  I have attended numerous conferences on plant based medicine and became Board Certified in Lifestyle Medicine in 2019 .
It has changed the way I look at diseases . Â Instead of simply prescribing a medication , I start by asking what you had for breakfast . Â I have been able to reverse diabetes, hypertension , hyperlipidemia and reduce joint pain , inflammation by removing processed foods , animal products and adding more whole plant foodsÂ

Read more…I’m a primary care internal medicine physician in Sandy Springs. I love general primary care medicine and have a special interest in mental health, women’s health and empowering patients to live a healthy lifestyle. I value listening to patients, building relationships with them, and providing thorough, compassionate, evidence-based care. I live in Roswell with my husband and two young boys and am fluent in Spanish.
I have been vegan since early 2019 and am happy to encourage and advise patients who are vegan or who are shifting more plant-based. A plant-based diet is sustainable for our planet, promotes kindness to all living beings, and can improve your health and wellbeing. Whether you’re a lifelong vegan or just considering getting started on your plant-based journey, I’m happy to chat about food and nutrition as well as all your other healthcare needs and concerns.
I delight in empowering my patients to manage their acute and chronic disease through application of lifestyle interventions such as whole food plant-based diet, exercise, sleep, stress management, avoiding risky behaviors, and connection; I am certified in lifestyle medicine with the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, and I am actively involved in my community by giving presentations on plants as medicine, the Blue Zones, and the role that animal production plays in climate change and the environment. I am particularly interested in outreach to the Hispanic community, as many members have chronic diseases but no access to health insurance and limited resources. I am also a Food for Life instructor with PCRM.org, offering health and cooking classes in my community.

Read more…Driven by an unwavering dedication to health and well-being, Niki Davis, MD, made a transformative shift from a career in rocket science to become a board-certified family and lifestyle medicine physician. Her journey began as a young teen when she conscientiously started eliminating animal products from her diet due to health concerns. Despite earning bachelor’s and master’s degrees in mechanical engineering and contributing significantly to the space shuttle program, her true passion was rooted in health and nutrition. Motivated by the aspiration to enhance both her own and her family’s well-being, she wholeheartedly embraced a plant-based lifestyle.
Rekindling her profound interest in health, Dr. Davis redirected her path, leaving her engineering career to pursue medical studies. She graduated from the University of Utah School of Medicine in 2017 and completed a rigorous Family Medicine residency program in 2020. During her residency tenure, she not only served as Wellness Chief but also co-founded Plant Based Montana, an advocacy group dedicated to educating healthcare providers and the public about the advantages of a plant-based diet.
Dr. Davis is a sought-after speaker at national and virtual plant-based events and has had the privilege of learning from esteemed mentors such as Dr. John McDougall, Dr. Michael Klaper, Dr. Anthony Lim, Dr. Laurie Marbas, and Dr. Alan Goldhamer, among others. She is a regular guest on Chef AJ’s YouTube channel, holds a certificate in plant-based nutrition from the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies via eCornell, and is certified in The Starch Solution. She is on the board of directors for Plant Based Support.
Passionate about Lifestyle Medicine, Dr. Davis offers TeleHealth appointments through LifestyleTelemedicine.com, aiming to provide comprehensive care and guidance to individuals seeking a healthier lifestyle. In addition, she runs plant based wellness retreats in locations around the world.
