Information for Patients

From the practitioner: About My Practice

I strive to get to the root of your health issues.

Are you too sensitive to other people's emotions? Do you have diarrhea, constipation, or bloating? Are you tired all the time? Do you have Long Covid? Health issues that other practitioners haven't been able to take care of?

I like to keep up to date about different ways of taking care of health and I would be honored to work with you to find out which ways would work best for you.

I am certified in Functional Medicine (2014) Walsh protocol(mood disorders)
Nutrigenetics (vitamins and genetics) Prolozone (injections)
Acupuncture (I use lasers)

From the practitioner: What Patients Can Expect

How's your health doing?

I've helped people who have been sick for decades get better using functional medicine and other advanced techniques that I use.

Do you want to get back to doing what you love? Whether it be doing your favorite exercise or relaxing on the beach, I can help you do that.
