Meet the people behind whole-person care.

Dr. Dushyant Viswanathan, MD, ABIM, ABOIM, AACE, ABOPM, HMDCB, is a multi-board-certified integrative internist who specializes in Enteroimmunology and Endocrinology, a paradigm to reverse chronic disease. He is the founder and CEO of The Columbia Center for Integrative Medicine (CCIMHealth), serving patients at multiple sites on both coasts since 2012, with a focus on chronic disease reversal through painstaking diagnostic and therapeutic efforts to balance the gut microbiome and endocrine systems. He is a member of the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (AACE), a faculty speaker at the Age Management Medicine Group (AMMG), director of Network Medicine for the American Board of Precision Medicine, and a board-certified Hospice Medical Director. He served as Department Chief of Internal Medicine from 2017 to 2020 at Lompoc Valley Medical Center in Lompoc, CA. He is the rare holistic doctor who is as comfortable teaching nutrition and mindfulness practices to patients battling chronic disease as rounding on critically ill patients in intensive care. CCIMHealth offers integrative medicine training programs to physician assistant (PA) programs and a functional medicine training program open to practitioners. Dr. DV created a women’s health endocrinology service focused on improving estrogen metabolism in patients with complex endocrine conditions such as endometriosis, menorrhagia, obesity, PCOS, and Hashimoto thyroiditis, leading to resolution of symptoms and titration off of medication. CCIMHealth’s microbiome-balancing model is useful for multiple pathologies, including inducing the largest ever reduction in prostate size documented (177cc to 78cc over the course of 1 year), multiple cases of Graves disease reversal in the past 2 years, and many cases of reversal of IBS, Type 2 diabetes, and chronic fatigue.

At CCIM, he works closely with Dr. DV on the patients served in Maryland.
