Mollie Parker Szybala, NMD earned her doctorate from the National University of Natural Medicine in Portland, Oregon. Early in her education, Mollie developed a strong interest in studying the microbiome and how to utilize novel microbiome therapies to help manage chronic conditions and infectious diseases.
She began successfully working with fecal microbiota transplants (FMT) in 2014 for the treatment of resistant Clostridium difficile infection. In practice, Mollie uses her training to offer a novel approach to autism, gastrointestinal conditions, allergies, Alzheimer's, asthma, cancer, autism, anxiety, depression, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, and more.

Clostridium difficile (C.diff) infection is the leading cause of infectious diarrhea in a hospital setting. It is also an increasingly urgent cause of death and disease in the United States, specifically in populations over 65 years of age. Due to rising incidence, antibiotic resistance, and refractory infection, FMT has become an effective strategy to treat C.diff not responding to standard therapies.
Our mission is to provide safe access and education regarding FMT treatment. We care about our communities, and we understand that not everyone has a local gastroenterologist or is able to get to the hospital for a recommended FMT procedure. This is why we offer FMT pills to C.diff patients and physicians, allowing for treatment from anywhere in the big city to small coastal towns or even remote rural areas.
After a detailed medical history and physical examination, donors enter a rigorous multi-phase screening process involving infectious disease testing of both serum and stool. As naturopathic doctors we have an appreciation and understanding of the importance of the microbiome and the impacts lifestyle imparts on our individual microbial make-up.
Here at Flora Medicine we are constantly on the search for the healthiest of stool donors. To become a donor, you must first fill out our Super Pooper form, which can be found below. If you meet our criteria, we will send you an email, so keep an eye out. After contacting you, we'll have you go through our screening interview, where we'll ask in depth questions about your health history.
FMT stands for Fecal Microbiota Transplant. It's a microbial therapy that delivers stool from a healthy person into the colon of a sick person. This procedure creates a healthy balance of bacteria within the sick person's colon, allowing for them to get better. C.diff, or Clostridium difficile, is an opportunistic infectious bacteria that causes severe diarrhea.

DR Dobner is an exceptional doctor. She really takes the time to truly listen, not only for the reason you're there but for the all reasons you got to where you are to begin with. She really digs deep into the actual root of an issue instead of doing what modern medicine does.. covering up the "now" problem. She is well knowledgeable in how our bodies work and all the ways we can heal. I recommend her to anyone who is ready for an effective change, because she has definitely made an impact on me!

I recently had an initial visit with Dr. Andrea McBeth and I have never felt so heard nor had a doctor take so much time with me. She went above and way beyond any expectations I had. Her knowledge blew me away and the recommendations she had for me are already helping! As a former cancer patient, I’d highly recommend her to anyone who’s experienced the effects from treatment though she’s also my “go-to” ND for any and all! Thank you, Dr. Andrea! I am so grateful to have found you!
