About Dr. Kate

MY STORY

At the age of 23, I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease. After my diagnosis and years of digestive problems, I was put on various Western Medicine drugs indefinitely to "solve" the issue. The real issue was that my disease never got any better and I just couldn't come to terms with the philosophy behind the heavy drugs I was being put on. This mentality lead me to seek Naturopathic care, and that's when my life changed forever.

I was put on a healing program that addressed why my system was reacting the way it was. With the support of vitamins, herbs and natural remedies; my body began to reprogram and heal itself.
Soon after I started seeing my Naturopathic Doctor, I went off the Western Medication that I was on and trusted in the healing powers of my own body supported by Naturopathic Medicine. I have now been Crohn's free for 11 years.

Not only do I practice what I preach, but I have also been in the patient's shoes. I have gone through a chronic disease and have seen the power that Naturopathic Medicine can provide. I hope my story gives you hope and also the curiosity to try an alternative medical avenue to truly get to the root of your health issues.
