Higher Health with
Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers

welcome to

I’m Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers, a Harvard-trained epidemiologist, researcher, and author dedicated to helping spiritually grounded individuals BE healthy and create Higher Health—mind, body, and spirit. My heart-centered approach is for those ready to connect deeply with themselves, take personal responsibility, and do the work to transform from the inside out.

My mission is to guide you to Higher Health by reconnecting to yourself—mind, body, spirit, and Source—so you can embody health as your most natural state and thrive for years to come.

This journey is all about embodying health as a state of BEING, creating a foundation for optimal longevity.

MY MISSION

Combining the wisdom of science with the depth of spiritual connection,
I guide those ready to realign and reconnect mind, body, and spirit to create lasting health and wellbeing.

Curious about the journey that brought me here? Here’s my story:

my story

September 18, 2006, was supposed to be just another day in my life as a 23-year-old grad student. At the time, I was pursuing my Master’s in Public Health and Epidemiology, preparing for med school, and diving deeply into research. But within 24 hours, my world changed forever.

What began as a routine kidney stone surgery quickly became a battle for my life. Due to a botched procedure the surgeon neglected to tell me about, I found myself facing severe internal bleeding and septic shock, and a nurse stood by my hospital bed to tell me I had less than 24 hours left to live. I was told to say my goodbyes to my loved ones and prepare to leave this world. Against all the odds, I survived that day—I know it was Divine intervention—but it was just the beginning of a long journey.

The aftermath left me in chronic pain, enduring more than a decade of suffering on every level—physical, mental, emotional, social, energetic, environmental, and spiritual. I saw countless specialists, yet the traditional healthcare system was only willing to focus on managing symptoms. That wasn’t my jam. Each approach left me feeling like patchwork pieces of a quilt rather than a whole, healthy person. When I exhausted those options, I turned to alternative and holistic health. But even with every diet, supplement, test, trend, approach, program, and biohack I tried, nothing provided lasting relief or the deeper connection I was searching for. That also wasn’t my jam. 

While studying to become a doctor, I found myself drained on every level—physically, mentally, and spiritually—with no clear path forward. One night, I collapsed on my bathroom floor, overwhelmed by pain and exhaustion. As I lay there, I realized I had spent years searching for “the one” to fix me. Then I heard a voice—a clear call to get up and end the search—telling me that I was “the one.” I finally understood that the answer wasn’t out there—it was within me.


I made a decision that night:

I would take full responsibility for my health. I would stop looking for “the one” or “the thing” to heal me and start the journey to create true health for myself from the inside out.

The years that followed were anything but straightforward or smooth. I continued to face challenges, navigating an emotionally abusive relationship before meeting my husband, and eventually recognizing the patterns of abuse I had experienced in my own family.

Through it all, it has been—and remains—my responsibility to do my work and lead by example. Because if I can do it and still be healthy, so can you.

Following the core steps of what would become my signature transformative approach, I began to reconnect with myself—mind, body, and spirit. I stayed committed to doing my work. I grounded myself in connection and aligned with my highest self. Over time, my symptoms faded, my energy returned, and I finally began to experience the optimal health I had been searching for. My connection to myself and Source became my guide and compass, and now I live a Divinely guided life. It’s the only way for me.

Today, it’s my honor to support others on their own path, guiding them to reconnect and align with their highest self to create a life of Higher Health, to simply be healthy. Together, we’ll build a foundation of connection, integrity, and empowerment that supports true wellbeing and optimal longevity.

Higher Health calls us to consciously and intentionally be healthy—not just for ourselves, but for the planet. The Universe needs us, and we are Divinely guided.

Through this journey, I learned that I am the only person who can create my health and help me be healthy—just as you are the only one who can do the same for yourself.

Credentials & Expertise

Connection

True health begins with a deep connection to oneself and Source.

My journey began in mainstream healthcare and research, where I witnessed firsthand the limitations of a system focused on symptom management rather than true healing and optimal health. Following my heart and intuition, I left that path to create a more integrative, heart-centered approach to health—one that helps you just BE healthy. Today, I combine advanced spiritual and energetic practices with my expertise in root causes, longevity, and epidemiology to help my clients create lasting transformation.

At the Health and Longevity Practice, everything we do is rooted in these guiding values:

Empowerment

Our mission is to help clients take personal responsibility for their health and embrace their own power to be healthy, resilient, and to heal.

Integrity

We approach health with honesty, transparency, and a commitment to doing the right thing for each individual.

Alignment

Health is an expression of alignment with the highest self and the wisdom of the body, mind, and spirit.

Compassion

Achieving Higher Health requires a heart-centered approach, holding space for each person's unique journey.

Core Values & Mission

My mission is to guide individuals who are ready to move beyond limitations and embrace a life of connection, resilience, and purpose. Together, we create Higher Health by embodying alignment, integrity, and empowered transformation—mind, body, and spirit.



At the Health and Longevity Practice, my commitment to clients is unwavering. I am here to support you in every step of your transformative journey to Higher Health, providing guidance, tools, and insight as you step into the healthiest version of yourself.

To achieve true transformation, health, and longevity, I ask for your commitment as well. Higher Health is for those who are ready to:

  • Take 100% responsibility for their connection, health, and wellbeing.
  • Embrace new perspectives and move beyond conventional approaches.
  • Dedicate time, energy, and heart to deep inner work and self-reflection.
  • Make aligned choices that reflect a commitment to their highest self.

COMMITMENT & DEDICATION

If you’re ready to bring your full commitment to this journey, I’m honored to guide you in creating lasting, life-changing health from the inside out.

I’m here to shift your perspective on what it means to have optimal health and longevity. Being truly healthy is about being connected to yourself—mind, body, and spirit—and to Source, and that happens when you're consciously and intentionally aligned. My role is to guide you in reconnecting and realigning with yourself so you can just be and feel healthy, balanced, and whole. The real keys to health and longevity aren’t found in quick fixes or external solutions—they’re within you. I’m here to help you remove the barriers standing in your way, empowering you to discover them.

What’s a Health and Longevity Doctor?

Not at all! I often work in tandem with my clients’ other practitioners, including primary care physicians, naturopaths, therapists, and traditional and non-traditional specialists. My goal is to complement the work of your other practitioners while helping you be healthy, creating a path forward to Higher Health—mind, body, spirit, and beyond.

I'm already seeing a naturopath or other doctor, does that matter?

Yes, clients have come to me with the goal of reducing or eliminating prescription medications. Together, we’ll address this goal as part of my broader, transformative approach, with safety as the top priority. While I’m not a replacement for your prescribing physician, I’ll support you in working with them or another physician to safely achieve the results you desire.

I want to be prescription medication free or reduce the amount of medication I take. Can you help me with this?

Absolutely, but please keep in mind we are not here to focus on problems. Identifying root causes is one of my core areas of expertise. My background in epidemiology and medical intuition allows me to uncover the multidimensional factors—physical, emotional, spiritual, and energetic—that contribute to challenges. As we follow my approach, we’ll connect the dots and address these root causes, empowering you to take control of your health so you can just BE healthy.

I have a few different health issues. Can you help me figure out the root causes?

No. My approach is transformative and addresses all aspects of health—mind, body, spirit, and beyond. Focusing only on physical symptoms doesn’t create lasting change, as true health is rooted in connection to oneself and Source. If a multidimensional approach resonates with you, then my practice may be a good fit.

Can I work with you on just my physical symptoms?

No, my practice is private and does not accept health insurance. This allows me to serve clients without constraints from outside entities. Payment is expected at the time of your appointment, and may be made online via credit card, PayPal, or bank transfer.

Do you accept health insurance?

No, I don’t rely on additional testing to determine root causes. My approach focuses on understanding and addressing underlying imbalances directly, saving you the time, cost, and energy associated with extensive testing. If you have past test results or records, you’re welcome to share them with me as part of our work together.

Will you be ordering any additional tests like blood work?

I work with clients all over the world. My practice has been fully online since 2020, and all sessions are conducted via Zoom.

Do you work with people anywhere or is your practice only in-person?

It’s possible. Depending on your needs, I may recommend supplements, nutritional guidance, or other forms of natural support, which could involve additional costs. However, your health is a lifelong investment, and I’ll guide you toward the most effective resources for your journey.


Will there be other out-of-pocket expenses besides the cost of appointments and programs?

Results vary based on each individual’s journey. My approach isn’t a quick fix—it’s about creating lifelong, sustainable health. Many clients begin to feel shifts within a few weeks as they focus on connection, but the process of Higher Health unfolds over time as you continue to align mind, body, and spirit.

How long does it take to see results?

My approach is not about prescribing rigid diets or programs. Instead, I help you connect with your body’s unique needs, empowering you to make food and lifestyle choices that resonate with your highest self. We’ll explore nutrition, movement, and other habits in a way that supports your personal journey to Higher Health.

Will I need to follow a specific diet or program?

Each session is tailored to your unique needs and goals. You can expect a heart-centered, supportive environment where we’ll dive into root causes, align with your highest self, and create practical steps toward Higher Health. My role is to guide and support you, while empowering you to take an active role in your health journey.
