I am a naturopathic physician. I practice family medicine with a focus on women’s health. Areas of interest include bio-identical hormones, nutrition, homoeopathy (including biotherapeutic drainage), botanicals, diet and lifestyle counselling. I also have a great interest in complementary cancer care.
Naturopathic physicians are trained in the art and science of natural healthcare at accredited medical colleges. Naturopathic medicine is a complementary and alternative medicine which emphasizes the body’s intrinsic ability to heal and maintain itself.
Our philosophies are:
- First, do no harm
- Recognize, respect and promote the healing power of nature
- Identify and remove the causes of illness
- Educate patients and encourage self-responsibility for health
- Treat the whole person
- PREVENTION!
Specialities: An understanding of hormones and how they interact. The ability to interpret salivary hormone levels and prescribe bio-identical hormones based on the patient’s needs. Also able to support patients with herbs, nutraceuticals, homoeopathy, and diet and lifestyle counselling.
