My Journey to Wellness and Empowerment

My path to becoming a naturopathic doctor was as much a personal quest as it was academic. After two transformative years seeking spiritual growth in Southeast Asia and India, I returned to the United States to pursue my graduate studies at the National University of Natural Medicine. However, this new chapter came with unexpected challenges. Despite my excitement and readiness to help others, I was met with severe digestive issues that disrupted my daily life. No matter what I ate, I faced debilitating bloating and abdominal discomfort. It was clear something was profoundly wrong.

Finding My Calling in Digestive Health

This personal health crisis fueled my determination to dive deep into the complexities of the digestive system. My studies became more than academic; they were a mission to uncover the root cause of my ailments. My research led to a diagnosis of intestinal methanogen overgrowth (IMO), a severe dysbiosis stemming from opportunistic infections I had acquired abroad. This was a pivotal moment for me—not only did I have a name for the issues plaguing me, but I also gained firsthand experience of the interconnectedness of our body systems, including the impact on my hormones and nervous system.

Leading Good Medicine Naturopathic Health Center

My journey to recovery transformed my life and solidified my passion for naturopathic medicine. It inspired me to found Good Medicine Naturopathic Health Center in New Haven, CT, where I extend the insights and solutions that were pivotal in my healing to others. We don’t just address symptoms; we strive for transformative health changes by tackling the root causes of illness.

CLINICAL EXPERTISE

After graduating from the National University of Natural Medicine, I advanced my clinical skills through a rigorous teaching residency at the University of Bridgeport College of Naturopathic Medicine.  Following residency, I continued to contribute as a clinic supervisor and professor of Endocrinology (the study of hormones!), where I was instrumental in shaping curriculum and guiding future practitioners in evidence-based naturopathic treatments. These roles have equipped me with a unique blend of academic rigor and practical experience, enabling me to apply the latest scientific research directly to patient care.

 As the founder of Good Medicine Naturopathic Health Center in New Haven, CT, I have spent the past eight years specializing in addressing complex digestive and hormonal imbalances. Our center is committed to a root-cause approach, employing tailored strategies that seek to achieve long-lasting health improvements rather than transient symptom relief.

“I believe individuals become kinder, more generous and more complete when they feel healthy and supported.  I became a doctor in order to facilitate this feeling in my patients and ultimately in our community.”
