Samantha has worked in the traditional western medicine model as a Registered Nurse and a Undergraduate nursing instructor. After working in the traditional healthcare system for the last 15 years Samantha believes that our allopathic care model is best suited for acute care, not health promotion. Being on the receiving end of the healthcare, the gaps in care became evident.

Samantha served as the support system for a family member undergoing cancer treatment, and discovered that health promotion in the traditional allopathic medicine model is lacking. Seeing this gap in care Samantha began researching root cause medicine and found Functional medicine. Samantha has since completed Functional Medicine for Nurses through the Integrative Nurse Coach Academy (INCA) and Applying Functional Medicine to Clinical Practice (AFMCP) through the Institute for Functional Medicine.

My goal is to bridge the gap between Western medicine and natural medicine. Because Western medicine will save your life, not change your life.
