Dr. Doug Lucas is a double board certified physician. He completed his foundational training at Stanford University and then started a traditional orthopedic surgery practice in Durango, CO. But after just 5 years in this traditional medical model Dr. Doug decided he needed to get a second fellowship and board certification in Anti-Aging and Metabolic Medicine so that he can take a different approach to treating people's problems. And that's why he started Optimal Human Health MD (OHH).

His work led him to his expertise in metabolic health, hormone optimization and bone health.

He believes that osteoporosis is a disease that requires a comprehensive approach to Recognize WHY you are losing bone and then reversing those causes.
