Celebrating 17 Years in Private Practice
This month, I am celebrating 17 years in private practice.
When I look back over those years, I realize how much I have learned about healthcare, business, people, and myself. One thing I know for certain is that you never stop learning.
It takes a lot of grit to stay in business for 17 years. There have been challenges, changes, long days, successes, disappointments, and plenty of lessons along the way. But through all of it, I have continued to show up for my patients and for the work that I believe in.
When I entered naturopathic medicine, I thought much of my career would be about helping people prevent disease. Over the years, I learned that change often doesn't happen until there is a reason for it. Sometimes it takes symptoms that won't go away, a diagnosis, or simply reaching the point where you know something needs to change.
My practice has evolved into working with many people who have complex health concerns and cases that require more time, investigation, and attention. That is work I truly enjoy. I like asking questions, looking deeper, continuing to learn, and helping my patients find answers as they navigate their own journey toward better health.
After 17 years, I am still learning. I am still curious. And I am still grateful that I get to do this work.
I look forward to what the coming years bring, to everything I will continue to learn, and most importantly, to continuing to help people restore their health.
Thank you to every patient who has trusted me to be part of their healthcare journey over the past 17 years. It truly means a lot to me.
