About your Professor and Diabetes AI Coach
Hi, I am Dr. Joseph Ortiz, a board-certified internal medicine physician with over 23 years of experience in the profession. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of engaging in over 70,000 patient encounters, helping thousands of patients find effective solutions to their health problems.
I earned my Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Southern California before pursuing my medical degree at De La Salle University College of Medicine. After medical school, I completed my internal medicine residency at Michigan State University, where I deepened my knowledge and honed my skills as a physician. My passion for teaching led me to become an Associate Professor at Michigan State University College of Human Medicine in 2009, where I have been able to share my knowledge and experience with aspiring medical professionals.
As a staunch advocate for patient-centered care, I am committed to providing my patients with the knowledge and tools they need to make informed decisions about their well-being. While medications can be an important part of managing chronic illnesses, I also emphasize the importance of lifestyle changes and alternative therapies in achieving holistic wellness.
My unwavering dedication to improving the lives of my patients has shaped me into a compassionate and skilled healthcare professional. I am here to support you in navigating your health journey with confidence.
