I am a primary care physician clinically trained in natural therapeutics. I am trained in the same biomedical sciences and diagnostic techniques as conventional medical doctors, however, my philosophy and approach differs considerably. Naturopathic physicians recognize the body’s natural capacity to heal. I focus on using homeopathy to help stimulate your body’s own natural healing mechanisms. Treatments are chosen based on each patient’s unique set of circumstances.
I take great care to thoroughly understand each individual patient’s needs in order to determine the most appropriate care and treatment.
My ND is an Arizona-licensed Naturopathic Physician. Originally from Toronto, Canada, I relocated to Arizona after being accepted into the Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine (SCNM), in Tempe, one of the premier naturopathic medical schools in North America. In addition to my Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine (ND) from SCNM, I also obtained a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology and a Master’s Degree in Kinesiology and Health Science from York University in Toronto, Canada.
I first heard about naturopathic medicine after expressing frustration to a friend about her years of struggle with chronic food allergies and eczema. Conventional treatments were unsuccessful and my doctors admitted they did not have much more to offer. I decided to seek the help of a naturopathic doctor. The natural therapies prescribed by my doctor had such a profound effect on me that my health and quality of the life that I decided to pursue my own degree in naturopathic medicine.
Throughout my medical training, I focused in homeopathy and continue to study with internationally renowned homeopathic experts, “In my experience, homeopathy is one of the safest and most effective medicines. I’ve seen some amazing recoveries.”
