Here’s the challenge: anyone can look like an expert on the internet

It can be difficult to tell whether health information is accurate, outdated, or even harmful.

A WHOLE-PERSON PERSPECTIVE ON WELL-BEING

If you’re experiencing symptoms related to the conditions I treat but don’t yet have a diagnosis, you may still benefit from supportive care focused on overall health.

As a naturopathic doctor, I take a whole-person approach that considers physical, emotional, and lifestyle factors. My goal is to support your well-being, clarify what may be contributing to your symptoms, and help you make informed next steps in your care.
