Because I use these principles, the recommendations I make for your health care program, are based on you as an individual and whole person. Your experience with naturopathic care may be more elaborate than what you have encountered with other health care providers given that it is important to get detailed information from you about your physical, mental, and spiritual make-up. If I am unable to address your health concerns, options will be discussed and a referral may be made if needed to another health care provider.
Natural therapies used in this practice include diet modification, body composition analysis, lifestyle changes, herbs, nutritional supplements, homeopathy, Reiki, and hydrotherapy.
Office Location and Hours

If you have an acute or immediate situation, please call 617-963-4222 and every effort will be made to see you soon as possible. If any potential life-threatening situation should occur while you are my patient you should go directly to the nearest emergency room and notify me as soon as possible.

Note: A phone consult is a call that is initiated by the patient to obtain naturopathic care recommendations for a new illness or a current condition. It may be conducted in place of an office visit, to review lab test results or provide continued management of a health care treatment plan. Brief phone contacts or emails to reorder supplements or briefly report status of a current treatment plan will not be charged.
Charges for patients with financial hardship may be adjusted by special arrangement.
There is a $40.00 charge for appointments cancelled with less than 48 hours notice. A patient who does not call or show up for their appointment will be charged the full cost of their scheduled office visit.
