My patients want a kind, experienced doctor that listens deeply and non-judgmentally, partners with them, offers and explains options, and responds promptly. They have often been disappointed in the past by providers who focused narrowly on managing their medications in short visits that are booked months in advance. They are looking for someone who offers a whole person perspective, considering their physical and spiritual needs as well. Some are looking for a doctor that can help them have the safest and most meaningful experiences with psychedelic medicine, whether they are curious or have tried these medicines already.
I'm a family doctor who specializes in Western medicine from a whole person approach. I also collaborate with trustworthy providers from a wide range of other healing traditions. I remain open-minded and non-judgmental towards people that use psychedelic medicines and other drugs. Many of my patients have physical health concerns that I can help with as well
You deserve to work with someone who you feel respects you, is trustworthy and can be easily reached. Please let me know how I can help you with this decision. Feel free to check out my reviews on Google or Healthgrades, or set up a free online meeting so we can get to know one another. If I am not a good fit, I am happy to refer you to someone else.
