My Story

My journey into gut health wasn’t planned.

It was born from a fierce commitment to restore my son’s health. In the first years of his life, he developed digestive disorders, autoimmune diseases, infections, allergies, and other chronic conditions. His health continued to decline despite following conventional treatments.

Driven by love and determination, I left my career in internal medicine to seek answers to heal his body. Through extensive research into root-cause, I developed a deep understanding of the gut microbiome’s vital role in overall health outcomes. By applying holistic, evidence-based strategies to restore his microbiome, my son’s health improved dramatically.

Today, he is flourishing!

Approach

What began as a deeply personal path to healing has become my mission. At Flourish Gut Health, I bring that same care and dedication to every client. Rooted in evidence-based research, my approach centers on optimizing the gut ecosystem as the foundation for true healing. Advanced testing, including comprehensive stool microbiome analysis, functional blood work, and other GI markers help uncover root causes and guide individualized treatment plans. Each care plan is tailored, integrating targeted botanicals, supplements, prebiotics, probiotics, and therapeutic foods to restore microbiome balance.
