About
"I have had the opportunity and the privilege for 14 years to practice medicine in California as a licensed primary care provider. I can do what I love – helping people to not only optimize their health and energy, but to also improve the overall quality of their life. I feel honored that I am able to make a difference in the lives of my patients. After witnessing the struggle of my mother and other family members with type 2 diabetes – an almost completely preventable disease – I made the commitment to spend the rest of my professional life on the prevention, treatment and reversal of diabetes and the many other chronic conditions. My goal as a naturopathic doctor and teacher is to assist patients in living to their fullest health potential, physically, psychologically, emotionally and spiritually."
SNMC, also includes Oncology Specialist, Dr. Niki Young, ND. SNMC doctors encourage patients to go beyond prevention, and settling for just not feeling sick, but to seek their best possible health, joy, and making a difference in the community! Patients seek NDs for the most natural, non-toxic, and effective therapies; the doctors seek to find and treat the underlying cause(s) of dis-ease.
