My work focuses on the combination of university and naturopathic medicine. This includes a broad perspective with the inclusion of careful, balanced diagnostics that detect imbalances and incipient disease before the onset of an illness. I firmly believe that the synergy of conventional medicine and naturopathy provides a holistic and thus the best possible medicine for each of my patients.
