THE ORIGIN
At age 7, Partha Nandi nearly died of acute rheumatic fever. The physicians who saved hislife set the course for everything that followed. He dedicated his career to understanding not just why people get sick, but how the conditions around them make illness more or less likely. That question would define his life’s work and ultimately his message to organizations around the world..
HIS ACADEMIC JOURNEY
Dr. Partha Nandi completed high school at 16, earned full scholarships to The Ohio State University and Notre Dame, graduated in the top 1% of his undergraduate class, finished at the top of his medical school, and was a Rhodes Scholar finalist. He brought that same standard of excellence into every role that followed.
C-SUITE BUSINESS LEADERSHIP
Dr. Nandi built a career at the intersection of medicine and business, operating at the
highest levels of both. As President and Executive Board Chair of Pinnacle GI Partners and CEO of Health Hero Pharmacies, he navigates the same pressures his clients face every day: Growth decisions. Culture challenges. Retention. The cost of a depleted leadership team. He brings that operating reality into every meeting room and speaking stage.
He also serves as a board member for FoodPharma, Respire, and United Physicians,
bringing clinical and executive perspective to each. He remains a practicing gastroenterologist, equally at home in the endoscopy suite as in front of a Fortune 500 audience.
EMMY-WINNING TELEVISION
Dr. Nandi created and hosts The Dr. Nandi Show, an Emmy Award-winning television
program syndicated to over 95 million homes across 90 countries and serves as Chief
Health Editor for ABC Detroit. The combination is unique: no other physician at his executive level commands this platform, and no communicator with this audience brings this level of clinical and business depth.

Gut and Optimizing Your Cognitive Health (2024, Mayo Clinic Press), is a New York Times bestseller. His first book of four to date, Ask Dr. Nandi: 5 Steps to Becoming Your Own Health Hero for Longevity, Well-Being, and a Joyful Life, became an international bestseller.
