Lifestyle medicine for clinicians

Powerfully effective, immediately applicable

No matter your specialty or stage of practice, ACLM supports you with accredited education, evidence-based resources, and ready-to-use clinical tools that make an immediate impact. Our offerings are designed to help you deepen your expertise, reach your professional goals, and improve patient outcomes through the power of lifestyle medicine.

An evidence-based, patient-centered and collaborative approach

Strengthens the clinician–patient relationship

Lifestyle medicine fosters a collaborative approach that empowers patients and deepens trust—leading to better engagement, improved outcomes, and, in many cases, disease reversal.

Restores purpose and meaning in practice

Many clinicians find that practicing lifestyle medicine rekindles their passion for medicine by focusing on whole-person care and lasting health improvements.

Supports clinician well-being and resilience

This approach not only benefits patients—it also improves job satisfaction, reduces burnout, and promotes a more connected, fulfilling approach to care.

Driving change across institutions

Lifestyle medicine is a core part of institutional strategies across the nation. Board-certified clinicians hold significant leadership roles in major medical associations and healthcare organizations across the landscape. Leading health systems are integrating lifestyle medicine approach into primary and specialty care, and academic institutions are embedding lifestyle medicine into curricula and training.

How to integrate lifestyle medicine in your practice

ACLM can support your implementation efforts with practical, ready-to-use and clinically relevant resources, including evidence-based case studies, clinical practice guidelines, CME/CE/MOC-accredited courses, patient education and assessment tools, and implementation examples.
