Physician-Led Naturopathic Medicine
Medicine that empowers the patient within
Physician-led naturopathic care for integrative oncology, pediatrics, prevention, longevity, and whole-person precision medicine.
Led by Dr. Julio Cantillo, NMD and Dr. Thiago Cavalcante, NMD
SANAVITA Health is a physician-led naturopathic practice offering integrative oncology consulting, naturopathic pediatric care, longevity medicine, and whole-person precision care. Founded by Dr. Julio Cantillo, NMD and Dr. Thiago Cavalcante, NMD.
Our Approach
Integrative medicine with clinical depth.
We practice at the intersection of evidence-based medicine and whole-person care — rigorously, not dogmatically.
Whole-Person Assessment
We examine the terrain — nutrition, sleep, immune function, metabolic health, toxic exposures, and genomics — not just the presenting symptom.
Physician-Direct
Every consultation is led by a licensed naturopathic physician — not a health coach, wellness coordinator, or algorithm. Every session. Every time.
Evidence-Informed
We synthesize peer-reviewed research, functional testing, advanced labs, and your individual story. No dogma — just clinical rigor applied to the whole person.
Our Physicians
Two physicians.
One mission.
SANAVITA Health was built on a conviction: patients deserve to understand their own biology — not just their diagnosis.
Integrative Oncology & Genomics
Dr. Julio Cantillo, NMD
Dr. Cantillo specializes in integrative oncology navigation, advanced lab interpretation, genomics, and metabolic medicine. He works directly with patients and their oncology teams to build whole-person support strategies grounded in evidence.
- Integrative Oncology Navigation
- Genomics & ctDNA Interpretation
- Metabolic & Functional Medicine
- Lab-Driven Clinical Care
Naturopathic Pediatrics & Family Medicine
Dr. Thiago Cavalcante, NMD
Dr. Cavalcante focuses on naturopathic pediatric care, neurodevelopmental support, gut-immune health, and whole-family wellness. He brings expertise in building long-term resilience from childhood through adulthood.
- Naturopathic Pediatrics
- Neurodevelopmental Support
- Gut-Immune Health
- Family Wellness & Prevention
Integrative Oncology
Tumors are not the whole story.
Think of a tree: you can prune the branches, but if the soil is depleted and the roots are stressed, the tree struggles to heal. We help patients understand the terrain — the metabolic, immune, and environmental factors that may influence resilience, treatment tolerance, recovery, and overall wellbeing.
This work does not replace oncology care. It deepens your capacity to participate in it.
- Cancer terrain assessment & metabolic optimization
- Collaborative oncology team communication
- Nutrition and supplementation during treatment
- Immune system support strategies
- Advanced lab and biomarker interpretation
- Genomic context and ctDNA monitoring
- Stress, sleep, and nervous system support
- Survivorship planning and long-term health optimization
Naturopathic Pediatrics & Family Health
Building resilience from the beginning.
Led by Dr. Thiago Cavalcante Ribeiro, our pediatric naturopathic care is grounded in the belief that children's health is shaped by the whole environment — gut health, sleep, nutrition, neurodevelopment, and family dynamics together.
We serve children from infancy through adolescence, with a focus on root-cause investigation and long-term wellbeing.
- Neurodevelopmental support (ADHD, autism spectrum)
- Gut microbiome and immune resilience
- Nutrition, feeding challenges, and growth
- Behavioral foundations and sleep health
- Preventive care and long-term resilience
- Whole-family health planning
Our Commitments
Why SANAVITA Health?
Six principles that define how we practice — and how every patient experience is shaped.
Physician-Led
Every consultation is led by a licensed naturopathic physician — not a health coach, wellness coordinator, or algorithm.
Whole-Person
We examine the terrain: nutrition, stress, sleep, toxic exposures, immune function, genomics, and metabolic health.
Data-Informed
We integrate advanced labs, functional testing, genomics, and ctDNA into a clinical picture — interpreting data alongside your story.
Collaborative
We work alongside your oncology team, primary care provider, and specialists — never against them. Integrated care is coordinated care.
Bilingual
We serve patients in English, Spanish, and Portuguese — removing language barriers from complex medical conversations.
Empowering
We equip patients with language, frameworks, and knowledge — so every conversation with your medical team feels like a partnership.
How It Works
A clear, considered path to care.
Every new patient relationship begins the same way — with a free, no-pressure conversation, long before any commitment. Here is what to expect at each step.
Schedule a free discovery call
Every new patient relationship begins with a free discovery call. This allows us to understand what you are looking for, answer initial questions, and determine whether SANAVITA Health may be the right fit.
Free, with no obligation.
Receive a short application
After you schedule, we email you a short application. Completing it helps us understand your health history, goals, current concerns, and the type of care you are seeking — so our physicians can review your needs before the call.
Takes about 5 minutes.
We review your case
Our physicians review your application and available information to determine whether your needs align with our scope of care and whether we can meaningfully support you. If appropriate, we will accept the discovery call and meet with you.
Reviewed by our physicians.
Schedule a new patient visit
If appropriate, we will invite you to schedule a new patient visit to establish care and discuss your case in depth — including your history, goals, treatment planning, and program selection if applicable.
