About Suzi
Hi, I’m Suzi.
I’m a doctor of Chinese medicine and acupuncture as well as a former labor and delivery nurse, so I understand the importance of both Eastern and Western medicine. These days, I’m focusing on natural healthcare.
My own transition to motherhood inspired my strong interest in women’s health…
and in particular the impact hormones and stress can play on many aspects of our wellbeing. As a mom to three (mostly grown) children, I understand the challenges of caring for yourself and your family, and that mothers need a space to be nurtured and cared for, too.
In my practice, I rely on all of my knowledge and experience.
I was a labor and delivery nurse for over two decades and have worked in other areas of women’s health. I combine my extensive clinical knowledge of women’s reproductive, hormonal and other health issues with my studies in Chinese medicine to provide the modern woman with high quality, holistic, natural healthcare.
I’ve seen how natural healthcare can benefit everyone.
I hold a special place in my heart for women’s health, but both men and children of all ages visit me in my clinic, too.
We all want to be well enough to enjoy life.
I’m blessed with good health and I want to be able to enjoy my life for as long as possible. When I’m not curled up with a good book or enjoying being outside, you can find me in the kitchen dreaming up beautiful home-cooked meals or sipping coffee in my favorite mug!

My Approach
East Asian healing meets modern medicine
I harness the wisdom of both Chinese medicine and modern medicine and marry them to ensure an effective and integrated approach to your health.
No two people are alike
I take the time to understand you. Your health concerns. Your lifestyle. Your triggers. And your ambitions! All to help you start feeling like yourself again.
Treatments that don’t lag on
From the very first appointment, I map out a treatment plan designed entirely for you and let you know how long treatment will last. The ultimate goal is for you to not need me. But I am here when you do.
Empowering powerful women
My driving force is to help you through every stage of life. I explain the benefits of each unique treatment and give you plenty of practical information so you feel empowered and in charge of your health!
