Hello and welcome. I’m Dr. Vasanth Kainkaryam — Internist, Pediatrician, husband, father, author, baker, patient, and someone who believes that life is a blend of free will and destiny.

I created 4 Elements® Direct Primary Care & Wellness Space for one simple reason: to help patients experience a smoother, clearer, more human journey toward health and wellness.

Over the years, my path through medicine revealed something important to me: healthcare had become complicated, fragmented, and often impersonal. I knew there had to be a better way.

My philosophy is straightforward. A doctor and a patient should have a direct, meaningful, and two-way relationship. That means honesty. Feedback. Trust. Curiosity. Thinking outside the box. Support. And yes — even a little fun in the process of getting well together.

Direct Primary Care allows me to practice medicine the way I believe it was intended to be practiced — without insurance barriers dictating the interaction. It gives us time. It gives us access. It gives us partnership.

My clinical interests include:

• Preventive and longevity medicine
• Cardiometabolic risk reduction
• Evidence-based weight management
• Functional medicine for lifestyle management
• Pediatric and adult primary care
• Integrative approaches, including acupuncture
• Data-driven, personalized care strategies

At 4 Elements®, I have intentionally built more than a clinic. I’ve created a wellness space where primary care, prevention, aesthetics, and community converge — because health is not merely the absence of disease. It is vitality, resilience, and living fully.

I believe deeply that this experience is about you, not me. My role is to guide, educate, and support you so that you can make informed decisions and feel empowered in your health journey.

Below are my credentials — and the four foundational elements that shape how I practice medicine.
