Allergies Naturopaths near Kirkland, WA

I am a naturopathic physician specializing in digestive health, women's health and integrative oncology. I also treat chronic illnesses such as chronic fatigue, and autoimmune disorders. I have a wide breadth and depth of experience and love caring for people with all sorts of problems, from chronic illness to performing annual physicals and other primary care functions. I strive to listen carefully to each patient, spending quality time investigating the cause of illness in order to truly facilitate healing. My ultimate goal is to create space not only for healing but also for you to find your optimal level of health.

I use a functional medicine, patient centered approach that incorporates each person's unique biochemical makeup, medical history, and personal health objectives, in order to empower the patient and treat the whole person rather than just the symptoms. My goal is to support your journey towards healing and optimal health, by using the most effective, least invasive approach to correct underlying imbalances.

I am certified in the BioTE Bioidentical hormone replacement technique. I am proud to be the first doctor in the immediate Seattle area to be certified in this amazing company.This complements my naturopathic approach allowing me to best address age management issues. Many patients are dealing with peri menopausal symptoms, or andropause as a man, and want to balance their hormones, optimizing, energy and sexual function.

I look beyond the labels often associated with long term illness to identify the physiological factors that allowed illness to manifest. I work cooperatively with my patients and colleagues to create custom treatment plans that largely focus on specialized treatment modalities including neural therapy techniques, intravenous therapies, botanical medicine and functional nutrition. I emphasize education to empower my patients to make informed decisions about their health.

I have a growing practice of all ages. I enjoy working with people to unravel the symptoms they are experiencing. I've found that often the symptoms we are experiencing aren't always directly related to the area in the body with the dysfunction. Sometimes we have to treat several different parts of the body in order to treat our symptoms in other areas. The modalities I use not only work to treat the cause of the problem, but they also help the body to heal itself, which are two of the foundational principles of naturopathic medicine.

My passion is pregnancy, birth, pediatrics, and women's health. Helping families conceive who are having challenges is extremely rewarding. I also help guide those families planning for a baby who want to set a strong foundation for the health of their baby. The care I provide begins at preconception and goes through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, and continues through all phases of life. I am a primary care provider in Washington state and a licensed midwife. I offer pediatric well-child visits, including vaccine counseling/administration and acute care and well-woman care, including annual gynecological and breast exams.

I have enjoyed over 20 years of private practice in the Everett area. Trained at Bastyr University in the 1980's and focused on the traditional aspects of the Naturopathic profession. I still prefer to use herbs and nutrients in the original tincture and herba forms and also use all of the scientific encapsulations by the most respected companies. Although I focus on Thyroid disorders increasing in the region, I do see all ages and genders in a general family practice setting. Over the years I have developed good workiing relations with this areas specialists so no aspect of your health will be ignored.
