Matthew Lederman, MD

Dr. Matthew Lederman began his professional medical career studying conventional Western medicine to become a board-certified Internal Medicine physician. He quickly realized more skills and tools were needed if he was going to help people achieve his definition of optimum health: to live in a state of, “Life Is Wonderful.”

Lederman began his personal and professional evolution starting with additional training in nutrition and lifestyle medicine, eventually participating in the documentary Forks Over Knives as well as co-authoring 6 books, including a NY Times Bestseller. His latest book, “Wellness to Wonderful,” interweaves medical science, psychology, spirituality, and life wisdom to help people achieve lasting health, vibrancy, peace, and joy.

Most recently, Dr. Lederman completed his CNVC Trainer Certification as he found Nonviolent Communication (NVC) to be the foundation on which mind-body and interpersonal healing lies. He is particularly passionate about using technology and other creative outlets to bring NVC into this world, supporting individuals, families, and organizations. In addition, he strongly believes that effective care must be trauma-informed, and supports that intention through his continued work with the Polyvagal Theory and Somatic Awareness Principles.

After 10 years in the corporate world serving as the Whole Foods Market Vice President of Medical Affairs helping launch their national comprehensive medical & wellness centers and integrated hospital and insurance networks, Dr. Lederman moved on to build his newest ventures, WeHeal and webe, with his work and life partner of 18 years. WeHeal & webe are the culmination of decades of learning and practical experience organized into an easily accessible program and tools that do everything just short of guaranteeing lasting health, joy and satisfaction in your life.

Recognized as a “doctor of the future” by Dean Ornish, MD, and with work endorsed by Sanjay Gupta, MD, he also contributes as an adjunct medical school professor, corporate medical advisor, and lecturer worldwide. He currently lives in Los Angeles, CA with his beautiful wife and two daughters who inspire him every day to do everything in his power to help heal this world.
