About Dr. DJ Polzin
For more than 8 years, Dr. Polzin has practiced holistic primary care.  He trained throughout the Pacific Northwest and Southwest US, working with many great healers, and exploring the connection between the mind and body in healing.
As a physician, he has incorporated thought-work with his patients to achieve extraordinary results and now offers this work at a deeper level through his coaching.Â
Dr. Polzin has created The Empowered Patient Method, a framework for addressing both the conscious and subconscious thoughts that keep patients stuck, combined with practical skills for navigating the healthcare system. He has used this approach for years to help patients reverse type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and other disease states.
The Pattern He Kept Seeing
DJ noticed the same pattern everywhere he practiced: rushed visits, short-term fixes, and a growing disconnect — between physicians and patients, and between people and their own health.
He took an education-first approach, helping patients understand their diagnosis and treatment options. But he realized this was only half of the solution. When patients understood exactly what they needed to do, many still struggled to make it stick.
That gap between knowing and doing is what led him to focus on thought work — not just teaching patients what to do, but addressing the subconscious patterns that drive whether they actually follow through.
Once he began incorporating this work, the results were remarkable.
Dr. Polzin brings this same approach to every client he coaches.
His mission is to empower as many people as possible using The Empowered Patient Method, a framework for addressing the thoughts driving your health decisions and building the skills to navigate your care with confidence. He helps clients close the gap between knowing what to do and actually doing it. When you work with DJ, he will teach you how to use the Method in your own life — so you can create the lasting health change that information alone could never give you.
