Francisco Quintero, MD
Treating Physician
Dr. Francisco Quintero is very excited about working at Sanoviv Medical Institute. He has always believed that good medicine is not just about prescribing medications to treat symptoms. He understands that the symptoms we experience are often the result of underlying chemical, structural, emotional, spiritual, or energetic imbalances within the body. Dr. Quintero believes that in order to truly heal patients, it is essential to understand what is happening throughout the entire body, recognizing that every organ system is interconnected.
“To me, disease is like a puzzle,” he says. “Every symptom, every life event, every environmental exposure, every nutritional deficiency, and every emotional experience represents a unique and essential piece. Only by putting all of those pieces together can we truly understand what is driving illness and restore balance to the patient’s health. I don’t want to just treat symptoms—I want to treat disease from the root.”
This philosophy is the foundation of Integrative Medicine, and it is exactly what Sanoviv Medical Institute represents by combining evidence-based therapies from around the world with the best of conventional and complementary medicine. This comprehensive approach makes Sanoviv a unique destination for whole-body healing. “Sanoviv is on the cutting edge of medicine, and I’m honored to be part of it,” states Dr. Quintero.
Over the years, through daily clinical practice and the privilege of continuing my medical education at Sanoviv Medical Institute, I have been able to refine my diagnostic skills and provide patients with a higher standard of comprehensive, personalized medical care. This continuous training has strengthened my ability to identify the root causes of illness and develop individualized treatment strategies that address the whole person rather than isolated symptoms.
During my time at Sanoviv, I have also had the opportunity to receive extensive education and hands-on training in the field of neuroscience and neurodegenerative diseases. This specialized experience has allowed me to help patients manage chronic pain without relying solely on medications, while also participating in the care of individuals living with Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, Multiple Sclerosis, and other complex neurological disorders. Being part of a multidisciplinary team dedicated to restoring neurological function has been one of the most rewarding aspects of my medical career.
Dr. Quintero earned his medical degree from the Universidad del Noreste (UNE) in Tampico, Tamaulipas, Mexico. He completed his medical internship at the Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social (IMSS) in Ciudad Mante, Tamaulipas.
Committed to lifelong learning, Dr. Quintero has completed an International Diploma in Functional Medicine, expanding his expertise in identifying and treating the root causes of chronic disease. He is also a Certified Master in Lyftogt Perineural Injection Therapy, specializing in the management of chronic pain through neurogenic inflammation modulation. Additionally, he is RECODE 2.0 Certified, having completed advanced training in Dr. Dale Bredesen’s comprehensive protocol for the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer’s disease and other cognitive disorders. These advanced certifications complement his integrative approach to medicine and allow him to offer patients innovative, evidence-informed therapeutic strategies.
