Dr. Francesca Medina
ND
Dr. Francesca Medina is a licensed naturopathic doctor in the state of California with a clinical focus on women’s health and hormones, digestive wellness, thyroid health, and holistic skin care. She earned her Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine from Bastyr University California and a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry from Loyola Marymount University where she was driven by a deep curiosity about the body and a passion for helping people feel their best.
After graduating from LMU, she pursued naturopathic medicine to develop the skills to bridge the gap between science and nature to provide evidence-based personalized healthcare.
Her approach is centered around identifying and addressing the root causes of imbalance—not just managing symptoms. She combines advanced lab testing, whole food nutrition, non/low-toxic lifestyle strategies, and movement to guide her patients toward lasting wellness. Her work is grounded in both evidence-based medicine and time-tested natural healing methods.
Known for her warm, approachable style and emphasis on education, Dr. Francesca partners with her patients to create realistic, sustainable plans that empower them to take charge of their health. Whether it’s supporting hormone balance, healing the gut, or helping women achieve clear, radiant skin, she focuses on the whole person—mind, body, and spirit.
When she’s not working with patients, you’ll find her soaking up sunshine on the beaches of San Diego, cultivating her love of cooking by trying new recipes, or curled up with a book and a latte.
