Plant-based Enthusiastย
Dr. Melissa Mondala
ย Hi, Iโm Dr. Melissa Mondala, and I love plant-based cooking and being a doctor. I help thousands of people just like you create life-changing results in their health and wellbeing. I help you unlock your behaviors and thoughts โ by one simple step: educating and empowering you to value your health and plant-based nutrition.
My approach combines 6 years as a physician specializing in family, lifestyle, and primary care psychiatry with the latest cutting-edge medical research to help reach your health goals.. I help you tackle challenges and achieve amazing results with less need for pills. I stay updated with medical literature to provide you with the best evidence-based approaches to your questions and health conditions.
My โWHYโ is to get people to live a long happy, healthy, fulfilled life through a lifestyle change instead of throwing prescriptions your way. Instead of catching a ball that needs to be tossed back to a physician, catch a solution that you can pass onto your loved ones.
