A PERSONAL MESSAGE FROM DR. SWEET

Trained as a primary care physician, I provide a unique fusion of modern medicine and ancient wisdom with my background in naturopathic and Chinese medicine.  I strongly believe in the body’s innate ability to heal, which guides my practice to focus on health instead of disease.  My job is to remove obstacles that may be keeping you from spending time with those you love or from doing the things that bring you joy. 

I enjoy working with a variety of patients, especially adolescent women who are faced with many challenges today including how to transition into adulthood with confidence and grace.  I am honored to work with girls and women to provide accurate information and holistic treatment, so they can create healthy habits and make informed decisions for life.  Reproductive health for women of all ages is my primary focus.   

Outside of the office, you may find me embracing the wonders and chaos of motherhood, experimenting with new recipes, hiking with our Australian Shepherd/Golden Retriever pup, crafting a photography project and/or plotting the next travel adventure.   

I look forward to hearing your story.
