    Apr 8 2025

    Dr. Christian Gonzalez, known as Dr. G, is a naturopathic doctor who completed his doctorate at the University of Bridgeport College of Naturopathic Medicine in 2014.

He recognized that the body possesses an innate wisdom and capacity for healing when given the proper care and attention. This realization became the foundation of his holistic approach to health and wellness.

    Since that time, G became a leading voice in integrative health, hosting the top podcast "Heal Thy Self" and empowering people to take control of their wellness. He has been featured in various media outlets, including MSN, the LA Times, and Shape. Currently based in Los Angeles, Dr. G continues his mission of empowering individuals to take control of their health.
