About Us
Wholistics is a digital outreach and coaching solution focused on delivering evidence-based guidance to support disease management and prevention. Our virtual lifestyle program offers a wholistic approach across all dimensions of health to drive behavior modification and positive health outcomes.
“Evidence has shown that our genes are not our destiny. Up to 90% of our health is controlled by our lifestyle choices – the food we eat, our quality of sleep, our exercise regimen, our resilience to stress, and our exposure to environmental toxins. At Wholistics, we believe that health and well-being is not only for those who can afford it or understand it. Our aim is to empower everyone regardless of socioeconomic status to take charge of their own health to live healthier, longer lives.”

Gary Gartner
In private practice after completing his Pediatric training at the University of Arizona Health Sciences in Tucson, Gary started down the path of medical informatics to support his passion for improving the delivery of care through information technology. At the beginning of this journey, he took night classes in C++ at the local community college and taught himself HTML and database programming so he could send postcard reminders to his patients to come in for recommended care. This turned into a career spanning greater than 20 years in Digital Health, with several companies both small and large, all with the focus on designing Health IT tools to support the continuum of care.
