Why I became a doctor?
I wanted to be a pediatrician when I was a little girl but didn’t think I was good enough at math and science. I followed a different educational path until I had my own health issues in my early 20’s and came across a naturopathic doctor. I made an appointment to see her and signed up for classes to complete my pre-med requirements knowing this was the medicine for me! I have had a variety of life experiences that have given me the ability to relate firsthand to patient’s health journeys. I bring a unique combination of empathy and advanced clinical knowledge as well as an ability to meet every patient where they are on their individual health journey.

PEDIATRICS! Everything from well-child checkups to visits for acute or chronic issues like constipation, eczema, ADD/ADHD, and anxiety
