About

Naturopathic medicine has been a devotion of mine for a very long time. My mother was an advocate of natural medicine since before I was born. I grew up with homemade baby foods, no vaccinations, apple sauce as desert (homemade of course) and a serious lacking of television. With that said, I am now using technology to my advantage with the goal of informing others of naturopathic medicine and related subjects. It is my hope that prospective med students (allopathic and naturopathic), and of course the general public, will read some this and become inspired to do what all medicine and doctors should intend to do, which is treat the cause. To look at the whole person and teach the patient how to stimulate the body’s innate healing abilities. To first do no harm, and to use the gentlest therapies available, the healing power of nature. And of course find prevention as the ultimate goal.

Yours in Health,
