“People with chronic/medical conditions and those who are pregnant can benefit greatly from exercise. They often have no idea that such benefits are easily available, or how to find qualified fitness professionals. I created this network to bring qualified fitness, dietitians & complementary health professionals to the community.”
“I believe the MedFit Network will help provide individuals with chronic medical conditions access to well-educated fitness & healthcare professionals to help manage their disease and provide a better quality of life.”
John A. Heydt, MD, serves as Chief Executive Officer for UCR Health and Senior Associate Dean of Clinical Affairs at UCR’s School Of Medicine. Dr. Heydt is Board certified in Family Medicine and Sports Medicine, and is a family medicine professor, specializing in sports medicine.
“I am genuinely very proud to be working on an enterprise that has the potential to do so much good for so many people. I want to thank all the wonderful people and organizations who continue to make this network possible.”
“There is no ‘one size fits all’ when it comes to healing, so having a resource like the MFN where doctors can feel confident about referring screened complementary health care providers and patients can have the freedom to choose the right health care resource for their personal goals, is something that is very exciting to me.”

“It’s so exciting to be part of an organization whose primary goal is to help connect patients with specialists who want to aid them through health fitness. There is a real shortage of resources to find these providers. I believe MFN is filling a big gap by making it much easier to find and learn about these providers; MFN is going to make a lot of lives better.”
