Functional Medicine Naturopaths near Camano Island, WA

I use a functional medicine, patient centered approach that incorporates each person's unique biochemical makeup, medical history, and personal health objectives, in order to empower the patient and treat the whole person rather than just the symptoms. My goal is to support your journey towards healing and optimal health, by using the most effective, least invasive approach to correct underlying imbalances.

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.

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. Your treatment protocol may include lifestyle changes, changes in your diet, nutritional supplements, an exercise program, a herbal formula, homeopathic remedies, allergy elimination treatments (NAET), and/or a liver/colon cleanse with colon hydrotherapy and special dietary program. 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 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.

My practice has two main focuses: 1). Helping people navigate their way out of chronic disease 2). Achieving or maintaining an optimal state of wellness. I have a special interest helping people with digestive problems, from undiagnosed digestive distress to Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Inflammatory Bowel disease. I also bring considerable experience in working with people with chronic fatigue, various autoimmune diseases, hormone imbalances, insomnia, anxiety and depression. I work with people to develop and support of an individualized healthy lifestyle.

I am certified in the BioTE Bioidentical hormone replacement technique. I am proud to be the first doctor in the immediate Seattle area to be certified in this amazing company.This complements my naturopathic approach allowing me to best address age management issues. Many patients are dealing with peri menopausal symptoms, or andropause as a man, and want to balance their hormones, optimizing, energy and sexual function.

I am a naturopathic physician with a special interest in healthy aging, geriatric care, digestive health, navigating menopause, hormonal health, and emotional wellbeing. To me, being a doctor is not just providing medical advice, it is providing compassion, empathy, and validation to every patient I encounter. It is going the extra mile to dig deeper and find solutions, even when the answers don't come easily. It is about supporting patients on their health journeys, empowering them to move forward with resilience and confidence. I believe that the doctor-patient relationship should be a partnership, with you at the wheel.
