Meet Dr. Gina Casian

  Hi! I’m Dr. Gina Casian and I founded Choose Healthy as a new approach to wellness that eliminates the deficiencies burdening our current healthcare system. As a patient myself, I’ve experienced stressful appointment processes, delayed access to care, rushed medical visits, and insurance denials for necessary procedures and treatment. Patient care should once again become the main priority of the healthcare system, and I intend to provide that with Choose Healthy. 

  My journey into medicine was shaped by a childhood tragedy that sprout my passion for medicine. At 13, I lost my father to lung cancer, an experience that left me determined to understand the human body and prevent such suffering. This personal loss drove me to discover my calling in exploring the miraculous universe of human physiology, diagnosing medical conditions, and treating a wide range of adult health issues. For nearly 20 years, I’ve served under-served communities, learning profound lessons that no other medical setting could have taught me. Those lessons fuel my commitment to putting patient care first, delivering evidence-based treatments, and building strong, professional relationships to address chronic diseases at their root causes, such as mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and chronic inflammation. 

  I create personalized care plans tailored to your unique biological needs, preferences, and physical capabilities, aiming to enhance your life satisfaction and extend both your health span and lifespan. 

  I embrace change as an opportunity for growth. Inspired by homeostasis as a key principle in medicine, I prioritize cultivating harmony in all aspects of my life. Being a mother is my most cherished role and greatest joy. I am dedicated to nurturing meaningful quality time with my husband and son, by enjoying activities like hiking and exploring health topics together. 


  Reading, yoga, meditation, and running are personal passions that complement my professional focus on well-being. Regularly, I pause and find rejuvenation in silence, stillness and solitude surrounded by nature, which restore balance to my  mind, body, and soul.

  The science of medicine is my passion, but protecting optimal mental, physical, emotional, social and spiritual well-being is my everyday purpose. I’m here to support you on your wellness journey, helping you embrace your right to a happier, healthier, and more fulfilled life.
