ABOUT / JOHN THOMAS PARUCH, MD

Medicine for the whole person.

Trained in internal medicine and psychiatry, and board-certified in lifestyle medicine, I work at the intersection of physical health, mental health, behavior and performance.

The Invisible Architecture of Well-Being connects biology, experience, behavior, environment, and meaning to understand what supports adaptation, recovery, and performance.
