Meet The Team

Dr. Jeff Tanzar, D.C., PSc.D, is an integrative nutrition practitioner and a board certified Doctor of Chiropractic. Dr. Tanzar has received licensure in the states of Virginia, South Carolina and Massachusetts and has been helping patients recover their health naturally for 25 years. After his own battle and recovery from Hashimoto’s disease, he opened Genesis Health Solutions, LLC., to help others recover their health and lose weight through diet, exercise and lifestyle improvements. As Dr. Tanzar’s passion to educate others about health, he has pre-sented numerous seminars and workshops on health and wellness at many local companies, churches, schools and civic groups, including the “Total Food Makeover” and the “Total Body Makeover.”

Dr. Cindy Tanzar, D.C., PSc.D, is an integrative nutrition practitioner and a board certified Doctor of Chiropractic. Graduating in 1994, Dr. Tanzar served her patients through chiropractic and nutrition, until making the decision to stay at home with their child.  This brought a whole new level of learning, as her daughter developed eczema, food allergies and chronic sinus problems at an early age. Dr. Cindy mastered the art of gluten-free and dairy-free cooking and baking, along with other nutritional skills, and helped heal her daughter of her ailments naturally. She now uses these skills in helping others with similar or related conditions, in addition to teaching clients to avoid the pitfalls of poor health through proper nutrition. Because of Dr. Cindy’s passion to help others reach their full potential physically, emotionally and spiritually, she has taught classes for more than a decade on helping women find their true worth through Christ.

Dr. Matthew Starling was raised in Southern California. From a relatively young age he developed the desire to help people when he got older. Having an interest in a more natural approach to health, Dr. Starling started pursuing nutrition and fitness in his early college years. After graduating from chiropractic school, he began his career in California as a chiropractor, as well as becoming a certified personal trainer. In 2018 he and his wife moved to Virginia to be closer to family. His desire to implement his training in health and nutrition provided Dr. Matthew a natural transition to Genesis Health Solutions. What he most loves about nutrition is that you are giving your body the tools and assistance it needs to heal and be healthy. He also enjoys seeing patients adopt a healthy lifestyle and turn their lives around.
