I, Brian Chou, M.D., am a practicing endocrinologist who lives the lifestyle he preaches. I strive to educate my friends, family, patients, and the public on how to live a healthy, joyful, and abundant life. I believe your health starts with your knowledge! And your knowledge is what I hope to expand and grow. Given the limitations of conventional medicine, I am constantly evolving my concepts on health. I take the knowledge of modern medicine and blend it with the wisdom of nature's best to practice a progressive and dynamic style of medicine.
