Cardiovascular Wellness

In my practice, I place a special focus on managing heart disease. My love for treating the heart and blood vessels evolved from a deep appreciation for the complexity of the brain and its fundamental dependence on the cardiovascular system. I help numerous patients regulate their blood pressure, cholesterol, and heart rhythm [atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, premature contractions, bradycardia, and palpitations or tachycardia]. My approach to heart disease is built on the foundations of naturopathic medicine and is refined to meet your unique circumstances. Rapid improvements and sustained health benefits are expected.

Rheumatological Conditions and Pain Management

As a former collegiate football player, I understand the frustrations that accompany painful joints. Seeing my own damaged joints on imaging and experiencing chronic inflammation and limited mobility for myself allows me to offer insightful treatment for my patients living with rheumatological conditions such as arthritis [osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, and ankylosing spondylitis]. My family history also motivates me to support patients with these conditions after watching my parent and grandparents experience the challenges. Regardless of the specific condition you may be experiencing, I am confident in the role that naturopathic medicine can play in restoring your health. Let’s work together to optimize your health and uncover underlying causes of your pain.

Gastrointestinal Health and Food Allergies

My interests in gastrointestinal health include the function of the liver and gallbladder, the impact of food allergies on disease, and helping patients navigate common concerns such as gastroesophageal reflux disease, peptic ulcer disease, dyspepsia and exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. As a naturopathic doctor, I appreciate that the underlying cause of many health concerns is gut health. Helping patients navigate the complex world of gastrointestinal health is rewarding because it provides a solid foundation for overall health. Often times when you feel like you’ve tried everything and nothing is working, focusing on your gut health can lead to breakthroughs.

Enhancing Athletic Performance

One of the reasons I got into naturopathic medicine was personally experiencing a lack of support for nutritional intervention in enhancing my own athletic performance. Helping patients feel their strongest and perform their best from an early age and throughout their careers is a very rewarding pursuit for me.

Neurological Diseases

My background in medicine began with a degree in neuroscience and a passion for understanding brain health on the most fundamental levels. I also conducted graduate research in the field of neurodegeneration with a focus on sports-related concussion, post-concussion syndrome, and chronic traumatic encephalopathy. In my practice of naturopathic medicine, I work with patients who have these conditions and I also experience success supporting patients with headaches and migraines. Dementia prevention, initial visits for cognitive concerns, and treating mild cognitive impairment are also emphasized in my practice.
