My name is Marly Oosterhof, and I’m a Medical Doctor who transitioned from focusing solely on curing to embracing a more holistic approach to healing. In 2005, I founded Vita Wellness and Health, where I’ve applied my expertise in medical weight loss to help numerous patients reclaim their health through personalized coaching and guidance.
Having faced my own medical challenges, I’ve sought a more integrated approach to health and wellness, earning certifications in nutrition, homeopathy, and lifestyle medicine, among others. My true passions lie in health, wellness, travel, and food.
What I am: A physician with a deep love for holistic health and lifestyle.
What I’m not: A photographer, chef, nutritionist, or personal trainer.
In this blog, I’ll share what excites and inspires me, with the hope of encouraging others to make lifestyle changes. Most photos will be taken with my phone, and I love sharing the meals I create, so please bear with me! 😊
