Inspired by the naturopathic principles of Doctor as Teacher, I am passionate about helping patients obtain a clear understanding of their condition and working together to establish an improved path to wellness. Whether there is a diagnosis of cancer or any other chronic condition, treating the whole person and addressing the underlying cause of disease is key.

Board-certified in naturopathic oncology, I have specialized in integrative oncology since 2004. My goal with each patient is to create and implement a personalized natural strategy that safely works to reduce side effects, support immune function, and offer cancer-fighting benefits to patients actively undergoing conventional oncology treatment in the form of chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, and surgery. I also work with patients in remission and those who are at high risk for cancer, prioritizing cancer prevention.

After thorough evaluation, including patient interview and review of laboratory studies, I create an individualized plan for each patient utilizing herbal medicine, nutrition as medicine, and lifestyle counseling.

I thoroughly enjoy the work that I do and also find joy in exercising, learning new things, laughing, listening to music and spending time with family and friends.
