Dr. Priyanka Wali is a board-certified Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine physician who comes to you with an open heart and a sharp mind ready to heal from all aspects. She graduated from the University of Southern California cum laude as an undergraduate in Los Angeles and continued her training there for medical school.
Her philosophical approach to medicine stems from holistic concepts, primarily that "Food is Medicine" and many medical illnesses arise from disconnection of natural-occurring phenomenon. Dr. Wali also firmly believes in the holistic connection between emotions and physical wellness, primarily the “mind-body connection”. She has also received certification from the Multidisciplinary Association of Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) to perform MDMA-Assisted Therapy and was involved as a psychedelic facilitator at University of California at San Francisco (UCSF) as part of the psilocybin for depression trials and psilocybin for anxiety and depression in Parkinson’s disease.
The best medicine is individualized medicine and this takes time, patience and most importantly a human connection. She is particularly interested in health optimization for individuals of all ages and demographics and has a passion for solving medical conundrums.
Whether this involves optimizing your health prior to starting a family/conceiving or addressing a medical ailment that has been persistent and unsolved after seeing many providers, Dr. Wali is committed to meeting your healthcare needs in many ways.
