Biography
I am Dr. Leigh A. Frame, Chief Wellness Officer of George Washington University (GW) Medicine and Director of the Resiliency & Well-being Center. My passion is empowering individuals and organizations to achieve lasting well-being through practical, evidence-based education and consultation.
My deep expertise integrates nutrition and immunity, allowing me to translate complex scientific understanding into actionable strategies for your personal health. I can help you understand the intricate connections between your diet, your gut microbiome, your brain, and your immune system. This means I can guide you on how nutrition impacts your mental well-being, helps manage stress, and supports overall resilience. I also address the complexities of nutrient deficiencies, such as the role of vitamin D in immunity and overall health.
As co-founder of the Resiliency & Well-being Center, I have extensive experience developing and implementing initiatives that promote holistic health and flourishing. I am skilled at creating tailored approaches to well-being that are sustainable and fit your unique needs, whether you’re looking to improve your personal health or foster a culture of well-being within a group.
My academic background includes a PhD in Human Nutrition and an MHS in Molecular Microbiology and Immunology from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. My work at the Johns Hopkins Center for Bariatric Surgery provided me with specialized knowledge in obesity and metabolic health. This comprehensive background allows me to provide well-rounded, informed guidance.
My contributions to healthcare have been recognized internationally, including being named among the Top 100 Health Care Leaders by the International Forum on Advancements in Healthcare in 2021. I also serve as a consultant and board member for global healthcare and biotech companies. This broad engagement ensures I bring current, impactful knowledge and a wide perspective to our work together, offering you invaluable insights into optimizing your well-being.
