I am a holistic, evidence based physician who practices with an emphasis on the integration between conventional and complimentary care. I specialize in sexual medicine, menopause, vulvar disease and pelvic floor dysfunction. I have been working in the area of healthcare and sexuality since 1993, and am a nationally certified Sex Counselor through the American Association of Sex Educations and Therapists, and sexual medicine fellow through the International Society for the Study of Women's Health, as well as a nationally certified menopause specialist through the North American Menopause Society.

I do best working with people who are willing to take a proactive approach to their healthcare. So much of what I do involves being a detective, trying to discover the underlying reason for health challenges and the root cause of illness. Most people want to get relief from their suffering —understandably so! While this is definitely a goal, I enjoy working with people who also want to optimize their health and to prevent illness in the future.

A patient who would be served by me is both curious and motivated about his/her body and return to best health. I enjoy sharing what I know and creating an atmosphere of respect with some levity. You do not need to fit into the medical description of a condition for me to be able to offer care and I spend a lot of time listening to your story to better understand you and your conditions. My tool bag is huge and full of possible options; we can find the treatment plan best suited for you as we work together.

I look beyond the labels often associated with long term illness to identify the physiological factors that allowed illness to manifest. I work cooperatively with my patients and colleagues to create custom treatment plans that largely focus on specialized treatment modalities including neural therapy techniques, intravenous therapies, botanical medicine and functional nutrition. I emphasize education to empower my patients to make informed decisions about their health.

I am a Functional Medicine practitioner and I focus on getting to the underlying causes of illness for both adults and children. Causes are primarily nutritional deficiencies, genetic mutations like MTHFR, toxins in the body, chronic infections and food allergies. I use lab testing to pinpoint specific causes and then apply the most effective natural treatments. I consistently see dramatic results with fatigue, candida yeast, fibromyalgia, migraines, menstrual problems, menopause, adrenal exhaustion, toxicity, anxiety, depression, and much more. It takes just days to a few weeks to begin to see results and feeling better.

Dr. Heidi Codino (she/her/hers) has completed extra trainings in LGBTQ+ healthcare as well as gender affirming care. “Feeling that your presenting features match your identity is very important to your physical, emotional, and mental health”. She wants all her patients to feel whole and happy with who they are. She specializes in minor surgery, LGBTQ+ health, IV therapy, pelvic floor therapy, physical manipulations, pediatrics, pregnancy, postpartum, fertility, chronic pain, and oncology, as well as seeing primary care patients of all ages.

Part of the joy I receive from being a physician is meeting people where they are in their health-care journey. Working with you as an individual with a unique history, getting to know your story and what your goals are for yourself is incredibly important. This is treating the whole person. You are not your symptoms or your diagnosis. I view our work together as a partnership: whether you need a cheerleader, someone to hold you accountable or hold space for you to process, I trust the inherent wisdom of your body and your lived experience.

I practice family medicine, offering primary care services for all ages. I specialize in pediatrics and women's health at all stages including fertility, postpartum and adjunctive pregnancy care. I also treat various chronic conditions including autoimmunity, metabolic and GI disorders. I wants all my patients to feel good in their own bodies and live the life they desire.

I work with patients to support both physical and mental-emotional health using a holistic approach. I treat conditions including digestive issues, endocrine problems, sleep disturbance, anxiety, depression, concentration difficulties and post-traumatic stress. I provide a compassionate environment for my patients, supporting nervous system balance and optimal healing. Therapeutic tools I use include nutrition, lifestyle recommendations, botanical medicine, nutraceuticals, psychopharmacology, homeopathy, hydrotherapy, somatic-centered counseling and mindfulness techniques.

Our goal for you at Sound Clinic is to achieve optimal health. We, first of all, take the time to listen to your health concerns, perform the appropriate physical exams, and then formulate a unique and individual treatment plan for you.

All designed to achieve optimal wellness possible for you.

I practice primary care medicine and have additional training in women's health, physical and sports medicine, and pain management. I see patients for preventive care, including full health check-ups, and also work with women's health issues, autoimmune diseases, pain, weight challenges, and allergies, utilizing physical medicine modalities, diet and lifestyle recommendations, counseling, and allergy testing and treatment.

I guide those seeking optimal health and holistic approaches to health concerns through patient centered care, treating the whole person and not just a set a symptoms. With empathy, uncondintional positive regard, innovative personalized treatment plans and cutting edge Naturopathic methods, I partner with you to look and feel your best.

I approach each patient as an individual, not as a diagnosis, and am skilled at meeting the patient where they are to help them move forward to balanced health. I take the time to get to know the person in front of me to develop a treatment plan that is the least harmful, most gentle, and most effective. I have realized that it is not a population or disease that I specialize in, but in listening to patients and working cooperatively to find the best treatment plan. My specialty is in constitutional homeopathy, but I use all naturopathic medicine tools and focus on women's health and children of all ages.

My ideal patient is anyone who is looking to optimize their overall health, slow their aging and live up to their full potential. My goal as a practitioner is to treat each individual as a whole person, and not just a list of symptoms. As a society, medicine has broken up people into different parts and systems, all treated by doctors with different specialities. In practice, I truly work to see the whole picture and how all of these systems are interconnected producing an individual's current health concerns. I work with each patient to find the root cause of their illness and treat this cause.

I have a growing practice of all ages. I enjoy working with people to unravel the symptoms they are experiencing. I've found that often the symptoms we are experiencing aren't always directly related to the area in the body with the dysfunction. Sometimes we have to treat several different parts of the body in order to treat our symptoms in other areas. The modalities I use not only work to treat the cause of the problem, but they also help the body to heal itself, which are two of the foundational principles of naturopathic medicine.
