As a former educator and a mother who navigated her own five-year path to Hashimoto’s remission, I don’t just treat symptoms — I teach you how to heal. Together, we’ll use comprehensive functional testing and a personalized, evidence-informed plan to find what’s actually driving your symptoms.
INTRODUCTION & PHILOSOPHY
Practicing since 2011
Former educator, now a Naturopathic Doctor
Personal remission from Hashimoto’s thyroiditis
Advanced functional lab testing
Long, unhurried appointments
It’s not “normal” to go through life feeling constantly exhausted, bloated, or struggling with severe mood swings — even if standard labs say you’re fine.
I understand this firsthand. My own five-year journey to remission from Hashimoto’s thyroiditis profoundly shaped how I practice medicine. Navigating autoimmune disease, hormone imbalances, and digestive disturbances gave me first-hand insight into the conditions I now focus my practice on.
With a background in Cell Biology and a decade spent as a teacher, my approach is rooted in education and evidence. I build individualized treatment plans by combining your health history with advanced functional lab testing — using data, not guesswork, to look for the root cause, and drawing on both naturopathic and conventional medicine to help you feel well again.
AREAS OF PRACTICE
If you’ve been told your thyroid is “normal” but you still feel exhausted, you need a deeper look. Having lived with Hashimoto’s and reached remission myself, I bring both clinical and personal expertise to thyroid care. We use advanced thyroid panels and a full range of treatment options — from prescription support to nutrition and targeted supplementation — to help you regain your energy.
The hormone system changes drastically throughout life, but severe menopausal distress does not have to be your normal. As an active member of The Menopause Society, I offer evidence-based support to manage these pivotal stages with grace and vitality. Using advanced testing, we identify imbalances and use Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT which is bioidentical) and natural therapies to restore your comfort and confidence.
True health begins in the gut. If you’re struggling with chronic bloating, gas, acid reflux, or unpredictable digestion, diet alone often isn’t enough. We look for hidden inflammation and microbiome imbalances like Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO). Using breath and stool testing, we identify what’s actually driving your symptoms and build a customized plan to get your digestion back on track.
ADVANCED LABORATORY TESTING
Identifying the true cause of your symptoms often requires testing that isn’t available through a standard clinic visit. We use advanced laboratory diagnostics to correlate your symptoms with hard data, so your treatment plan is built on evidence, not guesswork.
Full-spectrum testing for T3, T4, reverse T3, and antibodies.
Comprehensive dried urine hormone testing.
Pinpoint the exact bacterial overgrowth causing your digestive distress.
Map your complete gut microbiome and uncover hidden pathogens.
Rooted in a 10-year background in education, Dr. Luis is passionate about teaching her patients how to live healthier lives. After being diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis while in naturopathic medical school, she experienced firsthand the frustration of navigating autoimmune disease, hormone imbalances, and digestive disturbances.
Today, she draws on both naturopathic and conventional medicine to help her patients find the same balance and relief she found herself.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
If you’ve been told your labs are “normal” but you still don’t feel like yourself — tired, bloated, foggy, or just off — that’s usually a sign the standard testing isn’t looking deep enough. That’s exactly what an initial consultation is for.
