"Solutogeneis is the study of health and well being. We (doctors) don't know anything about that. We don't know how to sustain, preserve and maintain health. It's not a healthcare system, it's a sick care system." -Dr. Saray Stancic

Saray Stancic M.D. is triple board certified in Internal Medicine, Infectious Diseases, and Lifestyle Medicine.

In 1995, during medical residency and at just 28 years old, Saray was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, with lesions on her brain and spinal cord. After suffering through many years of debilitating drug treatments to manage her progressing disease, she discovered plant-based nutrition, radically changed her diet and lifestyle, and healed!

Code Blue was released on May 26th, 2020 and is available to watch on Amazon and many other streaming platforms.

Dr. Saray Stancic is also the author of the upcoming book entitled What’s Missing from Medicine: Six Lifestyle Changes to Overcome Chronic Illness.
