Who Is Dr. Axe?

Dr. Josh Axe is a wellness physician, popular radio show host and coveted national speaker committed to setting people free from their health problems so they can lives their lives to their fullest potential. He is on a mission to change the face of health in Nashville and around the world.

This message of health hits close to home for Dr. Josh, fueling his own passion to see lives transformed. He watched as his mother battled breast cancer in the early 90s, undergoing chemotherapy and a mastectomy. When she was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2004, Dr. Josh knew those procedures would never give his mom her health back. They needed a new approach—the approach he had been using to get thousands of people well from all kinds of chronic diseases.  This all-natural approach using diet, nutrition, detoxification, peace building and spinal correction allowed her body to heal from within. Following the advice and guidance of her son, Mrs. Axe is now in complete remission and currently in the best shape of her life.

Dr. Josh offers life changing health solutions on his radio show, which is heard by tens of thousands of people each week on the air and online.

He is the founder of Exodus Health Center in Nashville, TN, where hundreds of families are reclaiming their health. Since the clinic opened in February of 2008, people suffering from Crohnʼs and colitis have recovered completely. Cases of Type 2 Diabetes have been reversed, and countless other individuals have lost weight and reduced the amount of medications needed. For many people, Exodus Health Center was a last resort--when all other outlets of the medical field had not succeeded in giving them back their health.

Dr. Josh is also the physician for many professional athletes. He has worked with athletes including the likes of Ryan Lochte and Peter Vanderkaay. He has traveled with the teams to many prestigious meets and events, doing nutritional counseling, adjusting and muscle work to ensure their bodies are at their peak performance level.

Beginning next year, Dr. Josh will embark on his speaking tour in promotion of his as yet untitled new book. He is a highly sought after speaker and conference leader in communities, churches and businesses.

Dr. Josh completed his undergraduate education at the University of Kentucky and earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree at Palmer College in Port Orange, Fla. His passion to see lives transformed is contagious, as is evident in all he seeks to accomplish.
