Learn more about Dr. Ammous

Physician, educator, and advocate for medicine that addresses causes rather than symptoms.

Dr. Ahmad Ammous in clinical attire

Dr Ahmad Ammous works as an Internal Medicine Hospitalist at Harvard Faculty Physicians at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. He completed his medical school at The American University of Beirut and his residency at Staten Island University Hospital.

He was unsatisfied with modern medicine's focus on treatments rather than cures. He therefore chose to study nutrition, quantum biology, and natural medicine — disciplines that address the root cause of disease rather than simply hide symptoms.

His work focuses on metabolic health, circadian biology, ancestral nutrition, and the deeper environmental and systemic factors behind chronic disease. He is also an advocate for decentralized healthcare and frequently discusses the intersection of medicine, economics, and patient sovereignty.
