My particular areas of expertise are weight loss/lifestyle, The Bredesen Protocol for Alzheimer's Prevention and Treatment, diabetes, Lyme and other tick-borne diseases, heart disease prevention, and food allergies.

Treatment plans are developed and adapted to each individual patient with an emphasis on treating the whole person. I actively involve my patients in their treatment, empowering them to achieve and maintain optimal health.

Mind. Body. Spirit. The three aspects of what makes each of us who we are – all vitally important to consider and address in the journey toward optimal health.

As a naturopathic physician and acupuncturist I practice family medicine, meaning I have experience treating patients of all ages, from newborn infants to those over 100 years old! I have experience treating a vast array of medical conditions with both naturopathic and chinese medicine, and choose either the best style for each individual, or a combined approach depending on the patient's preference, and what I think is best suited for them. I really enjoy applying the foundations of natural medicine to each patient, and have found the results to be nothing short of amazing!

"The care of the patient is in the caring for the patient"- Frances Peabody.

In order to help my patients, I need to know their story. Health problems don't start the first time that a person has a pain, or the first night of insomnia. They started well before that first bout. For example, the problem started long before one develops IBS: IBS is a symptom of the problem. That is why it is so important to take a full history--not just current things but things that may have begun in childhood. So what I do is to listen and ask questions and listen. Once we are both satisfied, we can develop a plan--the goal of which is to help you reach YOUR best state of health.

My goal as a practitioner is to give each patient the skills necessary to make healthy lifestyle choices; while supporting them on their journey to optimal wellness.
