Naturopathic Doctor
Naturopathic medicine is a distinct health care profession that combines the wisdom of nature with the rigors of modern science. Naturopathic doctors (NDs) are trained as primary care providers who diagnose, treat and manage patients with acute and chronic conditions, while addressing disease and dysfunction at the level of body, mind and spirit. - AANMC

In my late teens and early 20’s I suffered from a recurrent health condition that resulted in multiple trips to the ER. I quickly became frustrated with the current medical paradigm and vowed to do my best to never see a doctor again. Instead, I focused on learning natural ways to stay healthy including herbal medicine and nutrition. In my late 20’s I had a health condition that required I see a doctor in order to release me back to work. This is when I met my first naturopathic doctor. My world changed overnight and I quit my job as a chef and returned to school to get my doctorate in naturopathic medicine.

As a naturopathic doctor practicing in the state of Oregon, I have the ability to bring you the best of "standard" medicine as well as more "alternative" medical practices. Having worked in primarily care for over 10 years, I understand that socioeconomic factors and well as personal and family needs play a huge part in health. It is therefore my goal to meet you where you are at and offer you a variety of treatment options to help you select the one(s) that best fitsyour current needs.
More to come . . . Stay tuned.
