Dr Tahzib is a graduate of the University of California Irvine with training in Biological Sciences and Psychology.   She earned her Medical Degree at Western University of Health Sciences in California and completed her internship and residency in Family Medicine in California.   She is board certified in family medicine and re-certified in family medicine. 

She has trained with the nation’s leading experts in anti-aging medicine, functional medicine and bio-identical hormone replacement and has travelled internationally to train with the world’s leading expert in bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, Dr. Thierry Hertogue as part of her training in anti-aging medicine and natural hormone replacement therapy in men and women.

In addition to her medical training and specialty training in Anti-Aging and Functional Medicine, she has had moving and life-changing personal experience with her own health. 

She lost optimal health at a young age while being treated with conventional pharmaceuticals through the symptom based conventional medical treatment approach and regained health and vitality through her work with functional and orthomolecular medicine.  Today she feels better than ever and has reached an optimal physical fitness level.   She is an avid cyclist and runner and practices yoga regularly.

She realized early on, while in residency, that conventional medicine’s pharmaceutical drug only approach and disease naming and management is failing, that there is more to true health and well-being, and decided she will offer more to her patients.   As a result of her vision for a paradigm shift in medicine with a more effective holistic model for health and her own difficult but rewarding life experience she has devoted her life to prevention, healing, and achieving optimal health in her patients using integrative treatments that incorporate the orthomolecular and functional medicine model along with conventional medicine tools in treating her patients.
