Direct answer
Mindy Pelz is licensed in California as a chiropractor (DC), not as an MD or DO, and California's chiropractic scope statute (Cal.

Even so, they advertise diagnosing or treating The Menopause Reset, Hormones & Menopause, Menopause Hormone Optimization via Fasting, Reset Academy, and Dr. Mindy Personal Recommendations, conditions that belong with endocrinologists. Those same pages route patients toward supplements, lab panels, and paid programs that Mindy Pelz profits from.
