My recent article on GLP-1 medications and menopausal weight management

Menopause represents a major metabolic shift for many women. As estrogen levels decline, changes in body composition, insulin sensitivity, and fat distribution become common. Many women notice weight gain despite unchang...

A repost of a previous article, but I have been asked about GLP-1 Medications even more frequently over the last few weeks, especially since I developed a course for other Physicians on the topic of GLP-1 medications and weight management.

My recent article about perimenopause - written by a Naturopathic Doctor that is also a perimenopausal woman 🙂

Perimenopause isn’t something that suddenly happens — it’s more like a slow, steady change in the background that eventually demands your attention.

Just a reminder about cervical screening and pelvic health

11/12/2025

After almost 10 years of prescribing GLP1 medications, and plenty of clinical experience managing patient goals, dosing, side effects, etc - I have put together a course for any health care provider, not just prescribing physicians, to learn more about GLP1 medications for weight management. It is still in its early stages, so more will be added, but feel free to share with anyone you think may be interested

On Wednesday’s we wear Pink! … But really I am wearing pink scrubs today for Breast Cancer Awareness.

October is 🎀 I previously did not support products that profited from chronic diseases, but this summer I went through my own breast cancer scare. Thankfully I am ok and my masses were benign, but it was a reminder that cancer does not discriminate. Even a healthy can be faced with cancer.

Do your own self exams. Go for your screening. And talk to your doctor/health care provider if you have any concerns.

Self screening is still important!

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. 🎀
This is your friendly reminder to self screen. Self screening is a powerful tool to get to know your body and detect any unusual changes early. If you notice anything abnormal, talk to your family care provider to get it evaluated.
Not all lumps are cancer - BC Cancer describes that up to 90% of breast lumps are not cancer. However, if you notice something new, abnormal for you, or any of the changes mentioned in this post, there is no harm in getting checked out.
