Integrative Healthcare for LGBTQ+ Patients
I am one of the only naturopathic physicians offering gender-affirming healthcare to this community in Vermont and I offer comprehensive, inclusive, integrative primary care to all LGBTQ+ individuals. I believe healthcare should be accessible and safe for everyone and I treat all my patients with respect and compassion.
My focus on prevention allows me to work with clients to improve health and reduce risk for chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease and cancer. I am skilled at addressing concerns unique to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer patients, including gender-affirming hormone therapy. I integrate affirming care into my role as a primary care provider, supporting the physical and mental health of my patients with a wide variety of natural solutions.
Services Offered:
Gender affirming hormone therapy
Prescription medication management
STI and HIV testing
PrEP counseling and management
Custom herbal formulations (teas, tinctures)
Vitamins, minerals, and nutritional supplements
During my medical internship and residency, I completed four transgender health-focused rotations with Dr. Maleah Ermac and an external rotation in HIV medicine with Dr. Chris Evans at Oregon Health and Science University. I have completed additional training on gender-affirming hormone management and PrEP counseling and management and look forward to bringing these services to the LGBTQ+ community of Lamoille County, the Northeast Kingdom, and the Mad River Valley.
