I offer a full spectrum of naturopathic health care for people of all ages and medical conditions, with the ultimate goal of treating the underlying cause of illness, not merely the symptoms. As a primary-care physician, I strive to meet my patients in their comfort zone and help them gently ease through challenges to reach their highest health goals.
I've always equated the concepts of doctor and medicine with the ideas of family and community. I make it a priority to create a warm, relationship-based network of patients who feel safe and well cared for, and who know they can place their trust in me for the long-term, to help with any medical need that may arise.

We all know we're supposed to drink more water, exercise regularly, eat our vegetables and get a good night's sleep. Yet the realities of a busy life often don't allow for even those basic health needs to be met. Each person is unique, so I customize treatment plans that can easily be integrated into the normal flow of my patient's daily life.
What is a naturopathic doctor? A naturopathic doctor (ND) is a primary care physician with additional training in natural therapies. Just like a medical doctor (MD), an ND graduates from a 4-year accredited medical school with the same clinical science and diagnostic education.
The key difference is the approach to treatment: Naturopaths are trained to treat the whole person and are very interested in determining the underlying cause of a patient's symptoms, whereas MDs tend to focus on treating symptoms in isolation.Can you prescribe medication?
