where the science of medicine meets the art of healing
Care that resonates with you
The right healthcare for you can be challenging to find in a broken system. Maybe you’ve noticed it’s become harder to get in to see your doctor when you need them. Or maybe you are frustrated that you keep getting referred to specialists, but leaving without answers. Maybe you don’t feel like you’ve been able to find a doctor that really sees and understands you. Or maybe you’ve started piecing together your healthcare with Google, Reddit, chatGPT, and social media or advice from influencers in order to find answers.
If you’re ready to roll up your sleeves and dig into the root causes of what’s happening with your health, I’m right here with you.
What if there was another way to think about your healthcare?
As a naturopathic doctor I take a whole-systems approach to support your health and wellbeing. With over a decade of experience in patient care, I have learned that good health doesn't exist in a silo. Physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual wellbeing all play a vital role in health outcomes, and you are more likely to feel like your best self when all of them are addressed together.
Through getting to know you, your lifestyle, your goals, and your values, we’ll be able to not only uncover what makes the most sense for you, but also identify clear steps for sustainable change.
Why work with philly naturopathic?
Stop spinning your wheels, and start understanding root causes
Your body is wise, and it’s important to understand what it’s trying to communicate to you. As a naturopathic doctor, I’ve been trained to interpret symptoms and see how interconnected various issues can be in order to help you better connect the dots about your own body and health.
It’s not all in your head, you can trust your gut
Learning to hear your intuition in order to become more discerning about your health can be a game changer. I’m here to help educate and guide you as you dive deeper into listening to what your body is telling you.
Sustainable changes for long-term health
You don’t have to overhaul your whole life to start seeing improvements in your health; small adjustments can add up to big changes.
Receive more time and attention for your care
Invest in your health with a doctor who is invested in your wellbeing. I spend the time listening to what is happening with you, getting to the heart of what you need, and supporting you as you become the best version of yourself.
There’s no one right path to your health goals
Care is customized for every patient that walks into my office. I don't operate off of a check-list that you need to follow, but rather enjoy crafting a path together that works for you. It's one of my favorite parts of the job, since it's really where the science of medicine meets the art of healing.
Meet Dr. Michal
The fortune cookie version of my life’s work would read something like: “You will weave together health, education and creativity in surprising and delightful ways.”
By the time I decided to study medicine, I knew that the conventional approach wouldn't work for me. So I took the leap and moved across the country to study naturopathic medicine, which focuses on whole person care, prevention and root-cause healing.
