Dr. Tony Boggess

Dr. Tony Boggess

Founder | Medical Director of Precision Medicine & Hyperbaric Medicine

Dr. Tony Boggess is a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) physician with nearly two decades of experience in Precision Medicine, Functional Medicine, advanced diagnostics, restorative medicine, and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. He founded Natural Balance Wellness in 2008 with a simple mission: to uncover and address the root causes of complex, chronic illness through a personalized, science-based approach to care.

Dr. Boggess earned his medical degree from Midwestern University–Chicago College of Osteopathic Medicine before completing his specialty training in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at the University of Michigan. He later pursued advanced postgraduate education through Stanford University and became an early pioneer in genomics-based Precision Medicine, combining the latest advances in medical science with an individualized, patient-centered philosophy.

Throughout his career, Dr. Boggess has helped thousands of patients with complex and treatment-resistant conditions by integrating advanced laboratory analysis, nutrigenomics, lifestyle medicine, targeted nutritional therapies, and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy into comprehensive treatment plans. His expertise has also led him to care for professional athletes from the NFL, NBA, MLB, and the University of Michigan, as well as executives, high-performing professionals, and individuals seeking to optimize their health, performance, and longevity.

Dr. Boggess's approach to medicine was shaped not only by his medical training, but also by his own personal health journey. That experience deepened his commitment to looking beyond symptom management and identifying the underlying causes of illness. He shares this story as a contributing author in Jack Canfield's best-selling book The Road to Success, offering an inspiring perspective on resilience, healing, and the pursuit of optimal health.

Patients appreciate Dr. Boggess for both his clinical expertise and his compassionate approach to care. He believes every patient deserves to be heard, every symptom has a cause worth investigating, and the best outcomes come from treating the whole person—not simply the disease.

Dr. Sudhakar Mannam

Dr. Sudhakar Mannam

Working alongside our Founder/Medical Director, Dr. Tony Boggess and the established clinical team, he is committed to preserving the personalized, root-cause approach and innovative spirit that patients have trusted for nearly two decades. By thoughtfully investing in the future of the practice, he aims to expand access through technology, telehealth, and continued innovation in precision and personalized healthcare.

With more than 35 years of clinical experience spanning pediatrics, anesthesiology, pain medicine, addiction medicine, and integrative healthcare, Dr. Mannam brings a diverse medical background and a shared commitment to compassionate, evidence-informed, patient-centered care.

Dr. Mannam began his medical career practicing pediatrics in England and Northern Ireland before relocating to the United States, where he completed residency training in anesthesiology at Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. During his residency, he received the prestigious Dripps Award as the program’s most outstanding graduating resident. He later completed advanced fellowship training in multidisciplinary chronic pain medicine and went on to earn board certifications in anesthesiology, pain medicine, and addiction medicine.

Since 2009, Dr. Mannam has incorporated integrative and longevity-focused approaches into his medical practice, pursuing advanced education through the Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM), the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine (A4M), and other leading organizations. His clinical philosophy emphasizes combining conventional medical expertise with evidence-based nutritional, lifestyle, and restorative therapies to support optimal health and wellness.

Dr. Theresa Basinger

Dr. Theresa Basinger

Pharmacist & Hormone Restoration Expert

Dr. Theresa Basinger's passion for integrative medicine was borne out of frustration after multiple pediatric providers were unable to assist with her son's immune problems and daughter's neurological delays. Her search culminated in joining our clinic with a passion for promoting and practicing the nutritional-biomedical medicine that ultimately helped her family.

As a doctor of pharmacy, Dr. Basinger brings unique skills and understanding to our Precision Medicine program. Her extensive biochemistry and pharmacologic knowledge positions her ideally to understand how nutraceuticals enhance and repair biological pathways. Dr. Basinger is also our clinic's resident expert in Bio-Exact hormone restoration and she works closely with our doctors and partner compounding pharmacies to restore youthful hormonal vigor and brain function to our patients, whom are exceedingly grateful for her services!

Dr. Basinger received her pharmacy doctorate from Ohio Northern University, and has over 15 years of clinical experience in a variety of settings. She is married and the proud mother of two very resilient children.

Dr. Brook Baade

Dr. Brook Baade

Functional Medicine & Autoimmune Specialist

Dr. Brook Baade embarked on her career in functional and integrative medicine following her own autoimmune health crisis. Because she was offered little help or hope from conventional medicine, she instinctively knew that her health could be restored once the body was given the proper building blocks for healing. Her studies and efforts led to a full remission of her autoimmune disease.

Dr. Baade earned a doctorate from Ferris State University College of Pharmacy and a Masters in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine from University of Western States. Her extensive study of the biochemistry of drugs and nutrients allows for a comprehensive, integrative approach to her patients.

As our resident expert in thyroid, adrenal, GI and autoimmune care, Dr. Baade's approach goes above and beyond! Her initial assessment looks at the interface between endocrine function, autoimmunity, and gastrointestinal health along with metabolic indicators, diet, and lifestyle factors.

Dr. Yvonne Berry

Dr. Yvonne Berry

Honorary Team Member — Biotoxin Illness Pioneer

Dr. Yvonne Berry is on personal sabbatical and is no longer seeing patients as a physician. Nevertheless, she remains an honorary team member because her passion to educate patients and physicians about bio-toxin illness became a national phenomenon during her tenure at Natural Balance.

Over several years, Dr. Berry intently studied the clinical research and biotoxin treatment protocols of Dr. Shoemaker and started working with patients in our clinic. She authored a presentation titled "A Physician's Guide to Understanding & Treating Biotoxin Illness" that helped many doctors around the country understand this complex and multifaceted illness better.
