Accepting new patients

No ratings to display.

Why aren't there any ratings?

There is no publicly available rating for this care provider for one of three reasons:

  1. They do not see patients.
  2. They see patients but have not yet received the minimum number of patient experience reviews. To be eligible for display, we require a minimum of 30 surveys. This ensures that the rating is statistically reliable and an accurate reflection of patient experience.
  3. They see patients but do not see enough patients to collect a statistically-reliable patient experience rating.

About me

I specialize in integrative medicine, with a particular focus on neurology and women's health. This means I combine the best of naturopathic medicine with conventional treatments to create a more complete, whole-person approach to care. 

Rather than choosing between natural therapies and evidence-based medicine, I work to bring them together in ways that are safe, effective, and tailored to each individual patient.

My interests include conditions related to aging and Alzheimer's disease, neurological health in women and the ways that lifestyle, nutrition and natural therapies can complement standard medical care.

I chose a career in medicine because I wanted to help people move from illness to wellness. My favorite part of being a doctor is meeting smart, interesting people with fascinating stories.

Originally from Los Angeles, California, I've lived in Boston, San Francisco, Seattle and Del Ray Beach, Florida, before coming to OHSU. In my leisure time, I like to spend time with my husband and our daughter. I also enjoy cooking and gardening.

Insurance

Before scheduling an appointment

  1. Check your network. If you have health insurance,  call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
  2. Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.

If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network.
