Why We Do This Work

Our clinic was born from a radical idea: patients deserve answers, not excuses.

Dr. Young came to naturopathic medicine as a patient who had been let down by conventional care. Later, watching her mother face cancer, she saw firsthand the cold indifference of systems built for throughput, not people. That experience ignited our mission: medicine that’s personal, human, and relentlessly curious.

We’ve built our practice around what we wished existed when we needed it most – a place where comprehensive diagnostics meet compassionate care, where root causes take precedence over quick fixes, where patients are partners, not prescriptions waiting to happen.

Training & Experience

Our clinical foundation is built on rigorous, science-driven education that sets us apart in the naturopathic field. We blend conventional rigor with naturopathic precision. All of our doctors are well-versed in treating patients in a primary care setting. They each have a specialty or tendency to treat beyond general medicine.

Dr. Renee Young, N.D., trained in the third inaugural class at the University of Bridgeport’s College of Naturopathic Medicine, working directly alongside Yale‑affiliated clinicians at Griffin Hospital. She also studied epidemiology under the nutrition and preventive medicine expert Dr. David Katz, founding director of the Yale-Griffin Prevention Research Center.
Dr. Sana Chrystal, N.D., D.C., specializes in regaining health post-cancer as well as supporting patients through cancer diagnosis. In addition, she specializes in hair restoration. Dr. Chrystal earned her Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine from Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine and Health Sciences and her Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Southern California University of Health Sciences. She also holds a B.Sc. in biology and chemistry from Concordia University and brings over a decade of experience leading IV therapy, biological medicine, and ozone protocols.
Dr. Chloe Deol, N.D., is a specialist in pain management, gastrointestinal health, and athletic optimization. She is a former collegiate track athlete, graduating from UCSD with a BS in human biology before going on to earn her naturopathic medicine doctorate from Bastyr University. Dr. Deol excels at deep-dive diagnostics, integrating physical, mental, and environmental factors to translate lab data into actionable plans for peak performance.

Together, our team challenges norms, pushes for answers, and delivers care that’s as strategic as it is personal. When you work with us, you’re getting doctors trained to think critically, act boldly, and treat you like the unique person that you are.

The Young Wellness Center Team

At our clinic, excellence doesn’t stop with the doctors. Behind every treatment plan, IV drip, or consultation lies a powerhouse team that makes the entire operation run smoothly. Here’s who’s helping move the needle on your care:

Jenny, Patient Care Concierge

Jenny is the calm, clear voice that guides you from first inquiry to your first consult. With a background in holistic health administration and a gift for translating complex medical logistics into plain English, she helps you choose the right visit, schedule your labs, and understand what to expect.

The Front Office Crew

These are the first voices you’ll hear and the warm smiles you’ll meet. From check-in to check-out, they make sure your visits run smoother than a post-IV recovery.

IV Therapy & Lab Services Team

With five highly trained staff members, this team draws your labs, prepares your IVs, and ensures you’re not missing a beat – or a nutrient.

Medical Assistants

Our medical assistants help you move smoothly through your visit. They collect your vitals, assist with lab work, and guide you through the diagnostic steps that inform your personalized treatment plan.

HBOT & VO2 Max Techs

From running precision hyperbaric oxygen sessions to guiding you through advanced VO2Max testing, our tech team makes the science behind your care seamless. Trained in both performance diagnostics and clinical safety protocols, this team helps inform your personalized plan directly.

Our Approach & Values

Twenty-three years of practice have refined our philosophy into something elegantly simple: data over dogma, precision over philosophy. We’ve built California’s most comprehensive naturopathic diagnostic center because we believe answers exist – you just need to know where to look.

Our NutraEval testing analyzes over 130 biomarkers. Our hormone panels go deeper than surface symptoms. Our autoimmune workups don’t stop at “normal” ranges when you feel anything but normal.

We’re not your typical naturopaths – we’re longevity strategists who use natural medicine as our primary tool. Every recommendation we make is backed by your unique biochemistry, not cookbook protocols.

Whether we’re optimizing hormone ranges, exploring subtle autoimmune signals, or activating NAD+ for cellular vitality, our strategies are individualized, science‑rooted, and upgradeable over time.

Our Reputation

At the Young Naturopathic Center for Wellness, our reputation is built on results. With over 22 years of practice and serving more than 15,000 patients, we’ve become one of California’s most trusted names in advanced naturopathic care. From tech executives and entrepreneurs to professional athletes and multi-generational families, our patients come for cutting-edge diagnostics and stay for the life-changing outcomes.

We’ve also become a trusted resource in the local medical community, collaborating with MDs, specialists, and wellness professionals who respect the depth of our diagnostic work and the real-world results it drives.

Our promise is simple: if it’s not helping, we dig deeper. That’s why patients don’t just come to us for care – they stay because they finally got answers.
