Telehealth for patients in Georgia, California, Tennessee and Washington.

Dr. Laxmi Naik, MD, is board-certified in obesity medicine and emergency medicine, holds board certification in integrative holistic medicine, and is certified by the Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM).

Background

Her practice history includes emergency care at some of the busiest trauma centers in New York, high-volume urgent care and an associate directorship at a large insurance company. That clinical, administrative and compliance background lets her work easily with conventional and holistic practitioners alike.

Her approach

Dr. Naik’s root-cause approach addresses a person’s physical, mental, spiritual and energetic well-being, with a focus on weight loss, preventive medicine, longevity and regenerative medicine. A meditation program, Inner Engineering from the Isha Foundation, changed the way she practices medicine. She launched Vivaa Integrative Health in 2022.

Education

Biology degree with a minor in religious studies from Columbia University, medical degree from the New York University School of Medicine, and residency in emergency medicine at Long Island Jewish Hospital.

Outside the clinic

She cares deeply about the planet, especially soil health and climate change, and supports non-profits including Doctors Without Borders, physician burnout support organizations, Conscious Planet and the Isha Foundation.
