Whether you’re navigating new or long term symptoms, struggling from an eating disorder or just want a doctor who looks deeper, I combine medical and psychiatric expertise, functional medicine with advanced diagnostics to connect the dots others miss.
You’ve experienced fragmented care—symptoms treated separately, explanations that never fully align, and no one stepping back to understand the root causes. You deserve a physician who brings the full picture together with clarity and intention.
Meaningful progress demands more than symptom management—it takes rigorous medical thinking, careful listening, collaboration, and the persistence to keep going when answers aren’t obvious.
a board-certified internal medicine physician with advanced training in psychiatry, eating disorders and functional medicine. My approach is different:
I combine scientific expertise, clinical intuition, and a deep respect for your lived experience. I specialize in unraveling the complex and helping patients who’ve been ping-ponged between specialists find clarity—and finally move forward.
In my practice, you won’t be rushed, overlooked, or reduced to a checklist. I take the time to understand your story, connect the dots, and help you make sense of what’s happening in your body. Together, we’ll build a path to healing that’s rooted in science, tailored to you, and guided by real results.

UCSF-trained. Berkeley-bred. Fueled by relentless curiosity.
I’m an internal medicine physician, eating disorder specialist, and functional medicine provider who takes a no-nonsense, compassionate approach to healing. After years of seeing patients stuck in a cycle of misdiagnosis and fragmented care, I built my practice to do medicine differently—with autonomy, creativity, and connection at the core.
I treat my patients like the whole, complex humans they are, bringing together precision healthcare and functional medicine to help them reclaim their health.
I speak to medical professionals, healthcare teams, and organizations on how to improve clinical outcomes for complex and misunderstood conditions. My talks explore how to think differently about persistent symptoms, eating disorders, and the intersections of mental and physical health.

Personalized, Complex Care
My goal is to offer thorough, compassionate, and personalized care for individuals with complex or chronic conditions.
This practice is not designed for acute or urgent care. For new or worsening symptoms, please contact your primary care provider or visit your nearest urgent care or emergency department as appropriate.
Insurance & Payment
This is a direct-pay practice and does not contract with insurance companies. A detailed receipt (superbill) will be provided for you to submit to your insurance carrier, which may reimburse a portion of the cost if you have out-of-network benefits. However, reimbursement is not guaranteed.
Because the time and depth of care I provide does not fit within typical insurance reimbursement models, all visits are billed based on the time we spend together and the additional hours required for:
Testing and Additional Costs
As part of my care, I may recommend labs or specialty testing not typically ordered in standard care. This can include:
Please be aware that these may not be covered by your insurance, and costs can vary depending on the lab and your individual coverage. Whenever possible, I will share cost estimates or low-cost lab alternatives in advance.
Continuity of Care
Follow-up visits are scheduled based on your individual care plan.
Important Note
While my goal is to help you achieve better health and quality of life, no medical treatment can guarantee results. Every diagnosis and treatment plan is highly individualized and developed with thoughtfulness and care. Your progress will depend on many factors, including your history, underlying causes, how your body responds over time, and your engagement in implementing and following the treatment plan.
