I’m a Naturopathic Doctor. My focus is working with people who are struggling with chronic symptoms/disease, chronic inflammation and autoimmunity. This could be a 22 year old with IBS and anxiety, a 42 woman in perimenopause with a mysterious skin rash, or a 60 year old with Rheumatoid Arthritis.
Chronic disease can be any number of clearly diagnosed diseases or it can be the messy mishmash of vague, nagging symptoms (ex: fatigue, digestive upset, acne, hair loss, pain, etc..) that make you feel bad, but your MD says all your lab tests are "normal" and then offers you an antidepressant.
