I returned to Thunder Bay in 2001 to open a Naturopathic practice. I consider myself a general practitioner who works with people with a very wide variety of health concerns. For all the years there were fewer Naturopathic Doctors in Thunder Bay we all had to be able to treat all the people and conditions that walked in our doors. Having said that, I do have a preference for using botanical (plant) medicine and Traditional Asian medicine. Stress, mood disorders, insomnia, women\'s health, digestive and immune system problems are all areas that I do enjoy working with. Prevention and treatment of chronic diseases is also something I work with quite commonly.
