Her Story

She built the practice she couldn’t find anywhere else

Dr. Georgine Nanos spent more than two decades inside conventional medicine before she walked away from its central compromise: the fifteen-minute appointment.

She had trained at some of the country’s most rigorous institutions — a Doctor of Medicine from George Washington University, a Master of Public Health in epidemiology from Boston University, and a family medicine residency at UC San Diego. She knew what good medicine required. She also knew the system rarely allowed for it: hurried visits, normal-looking labs, and patients sent home still unwell because no one had the time to look deeper.

So in 2017 she founded Kind Health Group — a physician-led practice in Encinitas built on a different premise. That brain health, hormones, metabolism, pelvic health, and longevity are not separate referrals but one connected system. That prevention matters most precisely when you feel fine. And that the most valuable thing a physician can offer is the one thing the system removed: time, and the willingness to keep asking why.

Bringing accelerated TMS into real-world practice

I built Kind Health Group on a simple idea: normal labs don’t mean you’re well — and fifteen minutes was never enough to find out why.
