Young Naturopathic Center for Wellness
The Young Naturopathic Center for Wellness has served Los Gatos from the same location since 2004, built by Dr. Renee Young around testing. Diagnostics run from VO2 max and grip strength to a 130+ biomarker NutrEval panel, Galleri and telomere testing, with blood drawn in the office. Care is paid per visit and per test. People come here for a whole-body baseline and hormones and energy.
