Welcome to VITALIZE NATURAL MEDICINE

Dr. Ryan Namdarkhan

Why I became a doctor

I was fortunate to have a large family. Sadly, this also meant witnessing one family member after another fall ill to cancer and other chronic diseases. This experience taught me the importance of maintaining good health.

Then, after enduring health struggles of my own and being harmed by certain pharmaceutical medications, I started to look beyond the conventional medicine approach. I felt there had to be a better, more natural way to not only treat disease but also support optimal health.

I started studying botanical and nutritional medicine on my own, mainly to treat myself and improve my own health This was when I discovered the profession of naturopathic medicine, entirely by chance. When I learned that Bastyr was expanding from Kenmore, Washington to San Diego, I knew it was meant to be. I left my corporate career to pursue naturopathic medicine.

My interest in “anti-aging” medicine stems from my belief that managing the aging process as safely and effectively as possible has a profound impact on one’s health and quality of life.

About me

Traveling is my absolute favorite hobby. I’ve been to almost every continent and over 30 countries! I love immersing myself in new cultures, meeting the local people, and learning new languages. I enjoy experiencing everything from metropolitan cities to lush, tropical jungles and small tribal communities.

In my spare time, I love being outdoors and in the water. Spending time outside in the sun, going on a hike, or enjoying a day at the beach are amongst my favorite activities.

I’m a big movie buff and my love for cinema is what originally drew me to Los Angeles. I enjoy the classics, as well as foreign and award-driven films. I also love plants, gardening, wildlife, and cooking.
