I'm Dr. Marc Braman, and I would like to introduce you to the missing blueprint on how humans work and why we don't, shared in my two upcoming books:
Our goal is to enable people to experience the greatest happiness, health, and wholeness they are capable of, individually and collectively, by understanding how humans work and why they don't.
About Marc Braman, MD, MPH, FACLM, FACPM
"What kind of doctor do you want to be?"
When I was asked this question in medical school, my reply was usually "A good one!"
I wasn't just being a smart aleck. I understood deeply that paper degrees on walls didn't make one a good doctor. Being a healer did, and seeking to know and understand as much as possible to best help those served did.
Passionate about bringing life, health, and joy into others’ lives, my mission is to help increase one's health and happiness. This is why, in my private practice, my patients are the beneficiaries of this guided Lifestyle Medicine experience.
Degrees and letters
While degrees and letters don't make you a good doctor, they are a reflection of professional accomplishment and proficiency.

MPH = Master of Public Health, Epidemiology (the science of medical research)
FACLM = Fellow of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine
FACPM = Fellow of the American College of Preventive Medicine
Pioneer
I'm blessed to have played a leading role in nationally establishing the American College of Lifestyle Medicine ("treat the cause") as the professional organization of the newly defined field of Lifestyle Medicine, working with the global leaders in this space. Through this spirit of service I've developed new models of ideal health care and continue to teach this to healthcare professionals.
In essence: "It's about the patient." This is why I'm now pioneering a national patient representative organization.
Outside of my private practice, I offer personalized one-to-one coaching, couples coaching, facilitate group training and tailored workshops, and welcome the opportunity to teach and speak. These offerings promote communication and collaboration while driving genuine collective engagement.
WHAT THEY SAY...
“Dr. Braman takes time to understand you as a patient. He is very thorough and careful in seeking how to understand your health issues. He uses an all-encompassing approach to treating the root cause of different health issues. He is also a good listener and takes into consideration all your concerns.Dr. Braman is outstanding!!!!”
Rafael Reynoso
“Dr. Braman is the best I have ever experienced. Treats the whole person and looks at everything holistically. I recommend him to anyone who wants to live life to the fullest. You should expect to find the actual cause of symptoms and natural ways to treat the root of the problem. He won't just put a Band-Aid on your issue, he will help you actually cure yourself by following simple, real guidelines. I love going to a Dr. and knowing they aren't just going to prescribe me a bunch of pills for a short term relief. He truly is the best.”
Liana Bryde
“I would highly recommend Dr. Braman to anyone interested in improving their health. I love his approach. I think he gets to the real cause of what's going on instead of just treating symptoms or being dismissive. He has helped me understand my health in a new way, and I feel like my quality of life has improved in ways I didn't expect. You can also tell he really cares about helping his patients.”
