From the practitioner: About My Practice

The Image of Health was born from the idea of creating a space where true collaboration can take place between patient and doctor, one where the sacredness of this kind of partnership and opportunity can be truly honored. We spend much of our lives feeling like we have to figure most things out on our own. Your health does not have to be one of them. We hope that this space feels more like a sanctuary: where you come perhaps to see your doctor, and you leave having a friend, a confidante, and a true partner in health.
