Part of the joy I receive from being a physician is meeting people where they are in their health-care journey. Working with you as an individual with a unique history, getting to know your story and what your goals are for yourself is incredibly important. This is treating the whole person. You are not your symptoms or your diagnosis. I view our work together as a partnership: whether you need a cheerleader, someone to hold you accountable or hold space for you to process, I trust the inherent wisdom of your body and your lived experience.

A patient who would be served by me is both curious and motivated about his/her body and return to best health. I enjoy sharing what I know and creating an atmosphere of respect with some levity.

My tool bag is huge and full of possible options; we can find the treatment plan best suited for you as we work together.

If you are actively seeking to improve your health, prefer a holistic integrated approach, want to explore alternative treatment options and need a place where you can feel both comfortable and confident we would love to work with you! We treat a wide variety of conditions and find the most important factor in our success is your commitment and ours!
