Jean Pierre Valette, MD

I was born and raised in the Bay Area in Kentfield, CA. I ventured East for boarding school at Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire followed by college at Wesleyan University in Connecticut, where I earned a degree in neuroscience. During my time in college, I was a Division III springboard diver and played on the ultimate frisbee team. I attended UCSD for medical school and completed my family medicine residency at UCSD before traveling to OHSU in Portland, OR for my sports medicine fellowship. 

I see Higher Self Health as a solution for the challenges I observed from my patients I worked with in a traditional health system. A direct care, membership based model allows for time and space for real healing and wellness. 

Higher Self Health allows me to share the wisdom of my own journey directly with my patients. 

Do you want a doctor who has worn a continuous glucose monitor, who has improved his own sleep, implemented his own meditation practice, and radically shifted his relationship with food to promote health? Here I am, and I’m excited to be your guide on your wellness journey.

My goal as your healthcare physician is to create a space where you feel safe and heard to share exactly who you are, what makes you come alive, and what your specific health goals are.  

I believe that you are the expert in yourself and your life – I am bringing my expertise in medicine to you so that together we can create a map of the best path forward to empower you to step into your full wellness. 

My approach focuses on lifestyle first to create the foundation on which health and optimal function are built. I also recognize that the pursuit of longevity means nothing if it comes at the expense of quality of life. That’s why I place major emphasis on mental health, self-growth and self-actualization in my practice so that you can enjoy the fullness of life.

I am proud to offer a range of support but also basic primary care, so you do not have to work with multiple specialists around your needs for functional health, longevity or sports medicine.
