In Sanskrit, Sattva is defined as balanced, harmonious, holistic, positive, and of high quality. Our mission is to provide high quality and individualized healthcare with compassion to each of our patients. We utilize aspects of both western and alternative medicine to support our patients.
Our Functional Medicine Approach
The Functional Medicine model is an individualized, patient-centered, science-based approach that empowers patients and practitioners to work together to address the underlying causes of disease and promote optimal wellness. It requires a detailed understanding of each patient’s genetic, biochemical, and lifestyle factors and leverages that data to direct personalized treatment plans that lead to improved patient outcomes.
By addressing root cause(s), rather than symptoms, practitioners become oriented to identifying the complexity of disease. They may find one condition has many different causes and, likewise, one cause may result in many different conditions. Functional Medicine treatment targets the specific manifestations of disease in each individual.
Our Philosophy
From the moment you walk through our doors—whether cradling your newborn, guiding your curious toddler, navigating the teenage years, balancing the demands of adulthood including the hormonal challenges or embracing the wisdom of grandparenthood—we want you to know: you are welcome here. You are seen, heard, and supported.
We understand that you may have been searching for answers. You may have felt unheard, dismissed, or tired of short-term solutions. You’re not alone. And you don’t have to figure it all out on your own anymore.
At every stage of life, we believe in the importance of whole-person care. We recognize the new parent who’s tired and wondering if their baby’s colic or eczema means something more. We see the energetic child struggling to focus, the teen navigating hormonal shifts, the adult feeling worn down and stretched thin, and the grandparent working to stay strong and active.
Every individual matters here. Every concern—big or small—is a piece of your health story. We don’t believe in band-aid fixes. Instead, we work with you to understand what’s really going on, and to move toward meaningful, lasting improvements.
This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about making intentional choices that help restore energy, balance, and well-being—one step at a time. Whether we’re helping to calm a baby’s tummy, support a teen’s mood and focus, ease hormonal imbalances, or strengthen the body through aging, we approach it all with care, curiosity, and compassion.
You are not just a patient—you are part of a community here. A place where your voice matters. Where progress, not perfection, is celebrated. Where your health journey is honored.
If you’re ready to explore a new kind of care—one rooted in partnership, curiosity, and a whole-person approach—then welcome. We’re glad you’re here.

Sattva Family Healthcare supports an NGO in Guatemala Funda Maya
Funda Maya is a charity in Guatemala near and dear to Su's heart. The organization aims to educate, feed, shelter, and heal residents of impoverished areas.
If you would like to donate or get involved, please visit Funda Maya. Each year, Su leads a small group of volunteers to support Funda Maya’s ongoing efforts. Sattva hosts an annual International Potluck, bringing the community together to share food, support artisans, and engage in global outreach. Attendees can purchase handmade items, explore sponsorship opportunities, and learn about volunteering abroad. The event also features a silent auction of goods and services, with all proceeds funding food baskets for preschool children in need of sponsors.

"Finding Sattva Family Healthcare has truly changed my life. As someone navigating multiple co-occurring chronic symptoms, I struggled for years to find a healthcare team that truly listened and understood the complexities of my body. From day one, Su Wyatt and the entire Sattva team made me feel heard, supported, and empowered in my healing journey. This was so refreshing, after struggling to have other doctors listen to me"

"New Years goal was to get those pesky yet important “health engine” checks. Everyone at Sattva was warm, inviting and thorough."

"Su and her team are everything you remember (if you’re old enough) about medical care before managed care took over. Su is a deeply caring and intelligent healer. Her team is also consistently excellent, always supportive of your family’s health. We are so lucky to have Sattva in Goleta. "
