I am a passionate and caring Naturopathic Physician excited to help others on their journey towards health! If you have never experienced Naturopathic Medicine before and are struggling with your health or looking for alternatives to conventional medications, let me help you in your journey towards a more holistic approach to health. 

The beauty of Naturopathic Medicine is looking for the underlying cause of health problems and treating the individual, not the disease, with safe and effective natural approaches.  There is a reason more and more individuals seek complementary health care practitioners ... to complement the health care you are already receiving and treat you as a whole person. 

The first step towards healing is determining the root cause of your problems and this may not always be so clear.  The body and mind is interconnected and it is my job (with your help!) to try and get to the bottom of your problems.  If you have never been to a Naturopathic Physician before, it is a great opportunity to explore a complementary approach to your health care.  I believe that a combination of conventional and complementary medicine is the medicine of the future.  Let me help you begin your journey towards optimum health.  Call today and start taking charge of your health!  I look forward to working with you!
