Anna Emanuel, MD
Los Angeles Medical Director · Next Health
Double-boarded family and integrative physician for hormones, metabolism, digestion, weight, sleep, and prevention
About
Anna Emanuel, MD leads Next Health's Los Angeles clinical programs across West Hollywood, Century City, and Studio City. She is double-boarded in family medicine and integrative medicine, with training from Loma Linda University Health, an academic integrative medicine fellowship at University of Wisconsin-Madison, and physician acupuncture certification from Helms Medical Institute. Her work centers on physician-led plans that connect hormones, digestion, metabolism, weight, sleep, nutrition, and prevention.
What to Know
Signature approach
Emanuel reads labs and symptoms as connected patterns: hormones, cardiometabolic markers, digestion, sleep, weight, nutrition, stress, and prevention all inform the plan. Her family-medicine training keeps the work grounded in conventional diagnosis, while her integrative background adds functional lab interpretation, nutrigenomics, mind-body medicine, and physician acupuncture.
What sets them apart
- Two relevant board certifications. She is board-certified in both family medicine and integrative medicine, a useful pairing for patients who want longevity care without losing conventional medical oversight.
- LA program leadership. She is not only an individual provider at one clinic; she leads Next Health's precision-medicine work across West Hollywood, Century City, and Studio City.
- Operational experience in the category. Before Next Health, she helped build the medical infrastructure for Love.Life's Los Angeles center, giving her experience with how integrative wellness programs actually run.
- Multilingual care. Fluent Polish and Spanish, plus working French, may matter for patients who want a more direct clinical conversation.
Before You Book
- Confirm location and schedule. She is tied to West Hollywood, Century City, and Studio City, and availability may vary because she also serves as LA Medical Director.
- Plan for self-pay care. Provider visits and follow-up protocols can add cost beyond memberships and a la carte testing; she has opted out of Medicare.
- Match the visit to the question. Choose her for physician interpretation around hormones, metabolism, digestion, sleep, or prevention; simpler wellness visits may route through the broader clinic team.
