Paradigm Wellness Medical Group

I have most of my life felt I have taken good care of my self. Truly, it has been a mind, body and soul approach. Never could I imagine that there were so many more available approaches to ones well-​being. Dr. Joe Cleaver enlightened me with his state of the art approach to healthy living and I’ve only begun to reap the benefits. I’m feeling so energetic, with a rejuvenation inside and out! It is confirming to see when the Dr.‘s really are walking examples of their own practice!!! Thank you Dr. Joe Cleaver!!!

I stumbled upon the Paradigm Wellness Medical Group website while researching functional medicine. I have struggled with my weight, energy, skin and mood issues for years. All standard medical tests came back as «normal» from my GP. As an active duty military officer and mother of five I was going to work, trying to work out several times a week and then coming home to make dinner, take care of the kids and falling into bed.
My first appointment with Dr. Joe and Gina changed all that and our partnership began. Using a system oriented approach I was included as a member of my treatment team where my symptoms, history, thoughts, ideas and health goals were all part of the collaboration. After hormone, nutritional and other testing we began to get to the bottom of what was causing my symptoms. Imagine fixing what is causing the symptoms rather than just treating the symptoms!
Over the past six to eight months my body and mind began to come back into balance. I have lost weight, have amazing energy and improved mood and my skin is clearer than it has ever been. I continue to collaborate with Dr. Joe and Gina on a monthly and as needed basis to make further improvements. As a military mental health provider and a wife and mother my improved mood has positively affected my family and my patients.
I believe that eventually western medicine will move to functional medicine. Until that time I am so grateful that Dr. Joe and Gina are here in Napa leading the charge.

Have been working with Dr. Joe Cleaver for sports performance for about a year and a half! In that time, I’ve gone from a back of the pack ultra runner to winning age group awards and even a third place finish at a 200 mile race!
I definitely recommend performance testing (lactate treshold, metabolic efficiency, Vo2 max) with Dr. Joe! He does so much more than just figures out what your numbers are! He gives very detailed, specific and training advice based on your test results! Having the results and recommendations from Dr. Joe, it was really easy to map out my training for a killer season!
Along with testing, Dr. Joe is super helpful with performance nutrition and supplements! He addresses nutrition as a whole picture, not just race day performance! He really loves sharing his knowledge/​passion for sports nutrition which is super helpful! I love that Dr. Joe addresses the big picture and every day life as a huge part of athletic performance!
Having offices in both Napa and San Francisco is super convenient! Anyone interested in sports performance or even better general health should definitely look into Paradigm Wellness Medical! Please feel free to contact me with any questions about Paradigm!
All Day!

I have been seeing Dr. Cleaver and Gina Knudsen at Paradigm Wellness for almost two years now and they have completely changed my life! I am 33 years old but came to them feeling way older. Fatigued, malnourished, depressed, no sex drive and skin problems. I couldn’t believe the amount of time they took analyzing my blood work with me present. I personally love the medical field so I was fascinated by what they told me about certain hormone levels and the aging process. I’m also the vainest person alive so I was ALL ears when they said there were things we could do to turn back the clock! Advanced nutrition along with hormone replacement therapy has not only made me feel 10 years younger, my skin cleared up and they somehow put my Ankylosing Spondylitis (autoimmune arthritis) and associated Crohn’s Disease in complete remission! Things I’ve been struggling with for years that other doctors could never figure out or even help. My sex drive and energy also came back! I had signs of aging skin (crow’s feet etc) so Gina recommended botox and PRP (platelet rich plasma) therapy to enhance collagen production in my face. She has 20 years experience in botox and fillers so I completely trusted her to make me look younger. Best decision I’ve ever made! Took years off my face, I get compliments all the time about how much younger and «refreshed» I look. I had been searching for an integrative wellness center that also specialized in Anti-​aging/​Hormone therapy for years. I am so thankful I finally found them!!! I also wrote a review on their Napa page. That is where I began my journey with them!
