About Dr. Bronner

Two Decades of Medicine. One Personalized Approach.

 

Dr. Bronner Handwerger, NMD, is a licensed naturopathic medical doctor specializing in preventive and integrative medicine, endocrinology, and regenerative orthopedics. Over more than 20 years in practice, he has built Integrative Health Solutions around a single premise: your biology deserves the diagnostic rigor of a research institute and the attention of a concierge practice. His patients know him simply as "DocBron."

 

DocBron works extensively with professional NFL, MLB, and Olympic athletes, using regenerative modalities including platelet-rich plasma and other advanced therapies to treat acute and chronic injury and support performance recovery. That same precision extends to his broader practice — comprehensive family health care built on functional and genetic testing that identifies risk factors long before symptoms appear, giving patients the ability to intervene early rather than manage disease after the fact.

 

He has deep experience navigating the interaction between pharmaceutical drugs, nutrients, and herbal compounds, ensuring that any treatment program is both safe and precisely tailored to the individual patient. His approach centers on identifying the underlying physiological drivers of a patient's condition — not simply treating the symptom in front of him.
