Dr. Neena Iyer earned her medical degree from the prestigious University of Michigan Medical School in 2019. Motivated to help her patients recover from chronic illness, she pursued specialty training and became board-certified in Internal Medicine. Dr. Iyer worked at University of California, San Diego, a busy, tertiary referral medical center, and Veterans Health Administration in San Diego.
