Our mission is to help you reach your optimal health goals through individualized care.

After completing medical school at Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine and working for 10 years as a licensed physical therapist, I opened Synergy. My goal was to combine the best aspects of standard medicine with the benefits of natural and preventative medicine. Since then, I've treated many patients with all kinds of health problems - from simple colds and infections, to cancer and medical conditions that MDs have not been able to resolve. If you want a holistically-oriented primary care doctor who is ready to work with you and your family to improve your health and resolve or alleviate health problems, I can help you.

I strive to help people feel better and live better. My care looks beyond symptoms and toward the root of the illness. I treat patients, not simply diseases. I offer safe, effective, and natural therapies for restoring health and optimizing wellness. I treat patients with a variety of conditions, anywhere from diabetes, depression, anxiety, fatigue, to chronic infections and autoimmune conditions; helping to minimize the use of prescription drugs and stimulate the healing capacity of the individual. I have passion for helping those with chronic and acute pain overcome their injuries with regenerative injection therapies.

My medical practice of over 20 years focuses on the treatment of the whole individual to stimulate the body's natural healing abilities. I have designed my practice as a nurturing environment where the physical, as well as the emotional, history lays the groundwork for treatment. Through this approach, I treat the cause of disease/illness rather than just the symptoms. Utilizing effective and appropriately individualized treatment methods, the patient is guided towards balanced health. The goal is to create optimal wellness by identifying and eliminating the stressors on a patient's system and supporting the body's physiology.

I am a licensed naturopathic doctor in the state of California and an alumnus to National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM) in Portland, Oregon. I am passionate about facilitating healing in each of my patients because I know first hand how powerful and effective naturopathic medicine can be, as it was the catalyst in my own healing journey. It is so refreshing when you can understand the underlying cause of your symptoms and finally feel heard by your doctor. I take time to listen to each of my patients and always strive to uncover the deepest cause of disease.
