We’re here for you.
We know that health is not just about treating diseases: it’s about treating the whole person. You are meant to feel vibrant and healthy, but sometimes this innate drive is derailed due to the pressures of modern living. Your body has resources to keep you feeling well; it just needs a helping hand from time to time.
Through the blending of natural medicine with the best of conventional medicine, our team has the tools to lend that helping hand. Our mission is to help our patients achieve their health goals in a painless, compassionate and holistic way.
Dr. Molly Thelisdort, ND, LAc
Naturopathic Doctor & Licensed Acupuncturist
I became a Naturopathic Doctor and Acupuncturist to help others achieve and maintain optimal health in a sustainable way. I learned about natural medicine in high school while going through my own health issues, which were not responding to conventional treatment. After trying “alternative” therapies, including changes to my diet, herbal medicines and nutritional supplementation, my body quickly regained its health. Learn more about Dr. Thelisdort, ND, LAc.
Dr. Rachel Clark, ND, LAc
Naturopathic Doctor & Licensed Acupuncturist
Through the influence of her grandmother, Dr. Clark was introduced to natural remedies at an early age. As a young adult, she enrolled in Willing Workers on Organic Farms where she was introduced to the grassroots healing practices of indigenous Central American cultures. This exposure to alternative methods of healing founded her belief in simple, natural cures that focus on treating the root causes of imbalance as opposed to the symptoms. She practices a study of intuitive healing methods, bridging a connection between the client's awareness and the body's healing ability. Learn more about Dr. Clark, ND, LAc.
