"I founded Atma Clinic to provide thoughtful, cutting edge, and comprehensive care to my home community. I also direct the clinic and its practitioners.
After graduating from Cornell University (B.A. with Distinction, Biology) and the University of Kansas (Doctor of Medicine), I completed my medical residency in Family Medicine at the University of Arizona. There I studied closely with leaders in Integrative and Functional Medicine through the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine, drawing from the best in Western and Eastern Medicine. Before starting Atma Clinic, I worked in a more traditional clinic, serving patients with many chronic and acute conditions.
I incorporate Ayurveda, herbalism, energy healing, yoga, and many other complementary healing methods into the best current science and research when crafting individual treatment plans.

Inspiration
My passion is helping patients find their health. This may mean finding improvement in a complicated illness (the single most common story I hear is, “Doc, I just got back from Mayo, and they couldn’t figure it out!”), helping an elite athlete get that extra five percent, and anything in between. I have a special interest in helping people discover a greater connection between their spirit and body.
I started Atma Clinic because I wanted to practice medicine in a more effective and holistic manner. My education and training empowered me to make a huge difference in my clients' health and vitality, but the business-as-usual medical system was keeping me from spending the necessary time and attention with my clients. Through Atma's subscription model, I'm able to form lasting partnerships with my patients."
