Dr. Zoboski completed his undergraduate degree in chemistry at the University of Toronto. He completed his doctoral training at Logan University of Health sciences in St. Louis. He completed a postdoctoral fellowship in orthopedics and a Masters of Science in advanced clinical practice at the National University of Health Sciences.
Current interests include the application of a new concept in the delivery of healthcare, "P4 medicine". Dr. Zoboski provides treatment plans that are predictive, participatory, preventative, and personalized by utilization of laboratory testing and genotyping.
Dr. Zoboski is actively engaged in clinical study and research related to the gastrointestinal microbiome related to irritable bowel syndrome, gastroesophageal reflux disorder, and autoimmune disease.

There has been a tsunami of clinical research since the completion of the human genome project in 2001. Did you know that two thirds of the human body consist of bacteria, viruses, fungi, prokaryotes, and archaea? Collectively, these micro-organisms are known as the microbiome. Also coined the "second brain', the gut microbiota communicates with the human host in a symbiotic fashion.
Our lifestyles and environment modulate our gut microbiota and can lead to imbalances in its composition resulting in increased intestinal permeability. Uncontrolled intestinal permeability can modulate our immune response, and if left unchecked, can lead to autoimmune diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, thyroid disease and many others.
With modern advances in diagnostic testing, it is now possible to detect antibodies early on in the disease spectrum. Early detection may allow preventative steps that may preempt disease manifestation via precise and precision treatment plans. This 'systems based' approach will fundamentally change the way medicine is delivered in the coming years.
This presentation looks at the present status of how we, as "super organisms", have the capability to modify the way our genes express themselves, by changing our lifestyle, and healing our gut.
By following an individualized three step approach, patients can realize reduction of cardiovascular risk, increased energy, and a much greater quality of life. This presentation also describes a novel concept of redesigning the system of health care delivery in the United States.
