Dr. Shannon is a licensed Naturopathic Doctor with a passion for evidence-based, integrative medicine. She has special interests in skin, gut, women’s health, and supportive cancer remission care.

 

Shannon chose naturopathic medicine because she knew that health was more than just your physical symptoms, and is a combination of your emotional and social environments too. She works with patients to address underlying reasons for their health concerns, and to support, educate and empower them in reaching their health goals.

 

Shannon graduated from Wilfrid Laurier University with an Honours Bachelor of Science degree in Health Sciences, with minors in psychology, biology and chemistry. She then went on to complete her Doctor of Naturopathy degree at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in Toronto, where she gained clinical experience on the highly competitive integrative oncology shift at the Integrative Cancer Centre. Shannon has additional certifications in Facial Rejuvenation and Cosmetic Acupuncture.

 

Dr. Shannon’s treatment approach emphasizes the foundations of health, including clinical nutrition, sleep, stress reduction, and movement. Care can also include supplementation, herbal medicine, lab testing and acupuncture.

 

When Shannon is not working with patients, she spends her free time doing hot yoga, cycling, reading or spending time with family and friends.
