About Andrea Doubilet
I was always considered 'healthy' with a side of 'something';
I was a healthy child, yet also grew up on puffers and medications to treat my asthma & allergies.
I was a healthy adolescent & adult, yet took antidepressants and contraceptive pills to treat my grief & irregular periods.
For every condition I developed there was almost always medication at my disposal that helped me to live more comfortably but also lessened my own accountability for my health.
With my health concerns and being raised among a community of medical professionals, I am no stranger to our healthcare system and have great respect for the brilliant minds and care that our medical doctors provide for us.
But as I grew older I developed an awareness that I was no longer satisfied with simply being medicated and began searching for greater depth not only for what I was experiencing but WHY
While I always planned to attend medical school, I first needed to embark on my own healing journey and began to research and advocate for myself a more comprehensive approach to my health concerns.
I chose a career as a Naturopathic doctor to support others on their personal healing journey by delivering health care in a way that aligned with my values:
1) Taking the time to listen and truly understand my patients
2) Recognizing the role of nature and our environment for healing
3) Combining modern & traditional healing practices to target the root cause of disease - beyond the suppression of symptoms
