Naturopathic medicine.
I have a naturopathic medical practice that is open to all patients looking to improve their health status. So much of the work we will do is going to be collaborative, therefore I value a trustworthy, honest, and industrious doctor-patient relationship. I encourage strong nutritional and lifestyle foundations, followed by tailored, evidence-informed treatment plans. I use a combination of natural, functional, physical, and modern medicine to achieve your health goals.
Our initial meeting will be 60 minutes. During that time I will review your comprehensive intake form (including previous lab or imaging reports), perform standard/focused physical exams, and discuss treatment. The time between appointments is likely to increase after the second or third visit. There are instances where we will continue regular visits - acupuncture, for example, can require appointments once or twice per week for 4-6 weeks.
I will work to create an effective treatment plan that best suits you.
