Leading with Care and Purpose
Founder and CEO, Tracey Delaplain, MD, FACOG, DipACLM is a gynecologist and lifestyle medicine specialist living in Loreto, BCS, Mexico and San Diego California.
Her passions include plant based kitchen magic, wellness and fitness education with an emphasis on reducing chronic illness and cancer through lifestyle interventions.
Dr. Delaplain envisions building a strong foundation of cancer prevention and screening through education in Baja, Mexico for communities that lack access to basic cancer care. She believes that teaching the next generation of young Mexicans about lifestyle modifications could impact many generations.
