About

At Sozo Lifestyle Medicine in Phoenix, Dr. Maryrose Young combines direct primary care with evidence-based lifestyle medicine. She built the practice around a simple conviction: health goes beyond treating symptoms and managing disease. Her goal is to help patients prevent and reverse chronic illness through personalized care and sustainable habit change.

The practice pairs clinical medicine with a robust wellness ecosystem. An on-site gym hosts group and individual fitness classes, including Teen Lift, Kids Fit, and the Balance Strong fall prevention program. A collaborating team of specialists rounds out the offering. James Babana, DPT, handles physical therapy. Cassie Tolman serves as holistic nutrition coach. Melissa Lewis-Duarte, PhD, NBC-HWC, leads stress management and wellness coaching. Personal trainers Samantha Davidson and Amy DeFao support fitness goals. Aly Axelrod focuses on plant-rich nutrition consulting. Support groups for congestive heart failure and addiction meet on-site, led by Sue Lynn, RN. The six-month Sozo Lifestyle Transformation program addresses nutrition, stress, fitness, and habit change for patients ready to make significant shifts.
