Dr. Carolyn Matzinger's
Approach to Healing

Carolyn Matzinger, M.D. has built her career around the premise that the most important aspect of treatment is creating a deep connection with each patient. Her style combines cutting-edge research and diagnostics in anti-aging medicine with the personal attention missing today in modern medicine. Her passion for healing and personal touch embodies her work and remains at the forefront of her practice.

Dr. Matzinger’s career began in 1987 upon receiving her Medical Degree from Wright State University School of Medicine. Completing her Internal Medicine Residency Program in 1990 at the Kettering Medical Center in Kettering, Ohio, provided a solid basis for Dr. Matzinger’s study in Internal Medicine, followed by Anti-Aging, Regenerative, and Functional Medicine. As an Internal Medicine Specialist and diplomat of the American Board of Anti-Aging Medicine, she has worked diligently to be at the forefront of her specialty. She is licensed in five states: Nevada, California, Ohio, Idaho, and Montana.

"Dr Matzinger is by far the most thorough and caring doctor that I have met. She is a dedicated professional, who will investigate the root of what is causing an imbalance in your system. Since I started following Dr Matzinger‘s plan, I have been having the best sleep of the past 10 years. She is attentive, warm, and very professional. I totally recommend Dr Matzinger."
Camilla D.Patient
"I have been a patient of Dr. Matzinger’s for several months and I have never had a doctor practicing Western medicine spend the type of quality time with me at each and every appointment. From the very first appointment Dr. Matzinger took specific measures to make me feel seen and heard as a whole person and not solely focusing only on my presenting symptoms. Her care and compassion, combined with her medical expertise, have all made a significant difference in my life. For that, I am forever changed and grateful."
Sonia D.Patient
"Dr. Matzinger's unique approach to wellness and healing has helped me to achieve some of my health goals. This approach focuses not just trying to make you asymptomatic, but rather trying to truly heal you for the long-term. I'm glad I made the decision to go to MIH and would recommend it to anyone looking for longstanding, meaningful health changes."
Pedro D.Patient
"I have been a patient of MIH for over 4 years now. They are a very professional, caring, and knowledgeable medical practice. They focus on prevention over remedies, which I believe is the way to go. If you are looking for a true "GREAT HEALTH" partner in life, there is no better place to go than MIH.'
Sean C.Patient
"My goal for my health was multifaceted. I wanted to perform better, feel better, have more energy, and most importantly know that I was preventing future issues instead of reacting after they happened to me. Dr. Matzinger’s approach is far more holistic and comprehensive than my previous primary care physicians who I only saw after something was wrong. Few if any ventured into other aspects of my health in the way Dr. Matzinger does. Well into my 50’s I feel more healthy and fit today than I have in decades."
Jamison W.Patient
"Dr. Matzinger specializes in making a customized plan for each of her patients. Her plan focuses on strengthening you in areas where you are deficient in. The brain supplements have helped me tremendously. I have also found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. Her facility is clean and made me feel welcomed and relaxed!"
Jamie L.Patient
"I had seen several other functional medicine doctors prior to seeing Dr. Matzinger and while they helped slightly with my health issues I was still suffering with fatigue, pain, brain fog and just not feeling well. My health really improved when I started working with Dr. Matzinger though. The therapies she uses have been a game changer for my health and over the past 5 years my health has continued to improve. If you are struggling with illnesses and it seems like nothing will help I encourage you to start working with Dr. Matzinger as she really listens and tailors her approach to each person individually to get them the health results they need. I’m living proof of it. "
Laura S.Patient
"As a patient over the last 9 years, I have reclaimed my health and now am stronger, leaner & healthier than I was in my 20’s & 30’s. My primary focus was energy, hormones and an improved immune system (as was frequently sick) and as an added bonus, my aging has slowed! Friends comment to both my husband (also a patient) & I that we haven’t aged! Dr Matzinger understands not one size fits all and truly listens to her patients and customizes to what best suits you."
Deka M. Patient
"Dr. Matzinger and her staff are all very welcoming and knowledgeable! I appreciate their attention to detail when it came to my health. Dr. Matzinger was very patient, explained everything to me, and was very thorough in her analysis on how to help me improve in performance and health. If you are serious about your health & longevity Dr. M is second to none. "
Jack H.Patient
"Dr. Matzinger and her team are extremely knowledgeable. I was very pleased from the moment I stepped in to their offices. I felt that my needs were heard. Dr. Matzinger was very thorough in reviewing all my results with me and listened to what I wanted to accomplish with my health. I was very concerned about taking medications and she found natural solutions for everything that I was lacking in my body. Dr. Matzinger truly cares about her patients and it shows through all the attention to detail and care she takes to help me improve with my own health. I have recommended Matzinger Institute of Healing to many people and will continue to do so."
