Philosophy

My approach to medicine is to treat the fundamental drivers of disease using evidence-based natural interventions that work with the body’s own healing processes. I recognize the importance of looking at the whole person and how different body systems influence one another and the patient’s overall health. I personalize treatments to support patients’ unique combination of genetic influencers, existing conditions, microbiota, and lifestyle while helping patients identify and remove obstacles to optimal health.
