Victoria speaks with Dr. Vincent Leonti!

Dr. Vincent Leonti has a career spanning over 3 decades. His practice has included both Emergency Medicine and Family Medicine. He believes in giving back to the Community and in addition to the Free Educational events he does, he has worked at Free Clinics for the Uninsured and served as the Medical Director of his local Fire Dept. Ambulance. He spent most of his life in NY. But 4 years ago, moved to Lawrenceville, NJ to open Princeton Integrative Health with his daughter, Jenna Richardson, a Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist and transformational Life Coach . He was motivated to switch to Integrative Health, a much more Holistic way of doing Medicine because of issues his grandson Carter was having as well as his own health issues. His Practice currently includes complex, chronic illness such as chronic fatigue, Hormone and Autoimmune issues, Lyme Disease, Heart Disease and cognitive decline. He likes to say his practice begins where the broken system of Conventional Medicine leaves off, a system that leaves many people with no answers. For Dr. Vinny, he was included in the people that Conventional Medicine had not provided an answer. Dr. Vinny, it turns out, had Coronary Artery Disease develop unawares. Heart Disease had killed his Dad and is responsible for close to a million deaths annually. It’s been the leading causes of death for over 100 years. And he has a Genetic Variant, ApoE4, that places him at higher risk of Dementia. He has 2 copies of this gene and that places him in an extremely high risk category. People with 2 copies of ApoE4 have a 50% chance of developing Alzheimer’s Dementia. The sad part, it is largely preventable. But Conventional Medicine does not do a good job in prevention. Dr. Vinny has dedicated his life to helping people avoid his fate and the fate of his Dad. He practices Integrative Vascular Medicine, meant to diagnose Vascular Disease decades before it becomes a clinical problem. This gives people the time to change their lives and Lifestyle in order to save their lives. Because of his own and his Dad’s experience, he has a mission to transform lives and keep people from dying from a Broken Heart or a Broken Brain.
