About Dr. Julia Getzelman
Julia Getzelman, M.D. founded GetzWell Pediatrics in 2008 with a passionate commitment to bring pediatric functional medicine to San Francisco. Dr. Getzelman graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Stanford University with Distinction and Phi Beta Kappa.

She is board certified in pediatrics and is a member of the American Academy of Pediatrics. Dr. Getzelman believes that many factors contribute to health and illness: nutrition, physical activity, emotional/psychological stresses, and the environment, among others. She has a special interest in how nutrition and intestinal health contribute to overall wellness. To that end, she completed the core curriculum of the Institute for Functional Medicine in 2007. Dr. Getzelman has additional training in homeopathy and applied nutritional biochemistry/food as medicine as well as in using genetic polymorphisms as a guide for treating a variety of chronic problems like ADHD, anxiety, behavior issues, autoimmunity, etc. Dr. Getzelman grew up in California and is the oldest of five children. She loves the outdoors and is fascinated by nature.
