About DoctorSaputo.com

DoctorSaputo.com is actually more than your average health information website...

It is the brainchild of Len Saputo, MD and Francesco Garri Garripoli who have built this project on the foundation of their friendship that began in 1998. These two wellness advocates envisioned a new approach to health education and personal empowerment.  Combining Len's concept's of "health medicine" and a true "patient centered" approach to medicine... and Francesco's emphasis on a holistic, body/mind/spirit perspective on self care and preventative medicine, DoctorSaputo.com is a true East-meets-West approach to health education.

DoctorSaputo.com offers a stunning library of nearly 2,000 media files featuring Dr. Saputo, his wife Vicki Saputo, RN, Francesco, and an amazing array of health and wellness experts from around the world discussing information that is custom-delivered to you.  This is made possible utilizing the WujiTech Environment software designed by Francesco and his team of Romanian programmers who have been developing this state-of-the-art technology since 2002.        

Our goal is to offer you a web experience that honors your intelligence, respects your privacy, and inspires your heart.  It is an experience that will become highly personalized - more and more so as you work with the software, answering questions and being taken on a journey of self-discovery.  This is an opportunity for you to assess your health and wellness at your own pace, and to measure your development over time.  We hope that you will join one of our Programs and tell your friends and family. 

Together we can evolve the way healthcare is offered around the world; it is time that we all do what we can to make a difference.
