Elizabeth received her undergraduate degree from Princeton University and her medical degree from the University of Virginia. She did advanced medical training at the University of Pennsylvania and Stanford University. After completing her residency she joined the Stanford faculty, where she taught for eight years. She has also practiced at several large medical groups as well as being in private practice.
As she progressed through her career, Elizabeth became frustrated that the promises of medical science didn’t translate into cures for most common diseases and that patients still struggled with illness despite receiving state-of-the-art medical care. After a having her own near-death experience, then witnessing the nearly spontaneous resolution of an “incurable” disease, Elizabeth became obsessed with finding out why mainstream medicine fails so many people.
Elizabeth combines her medical background with wide ranging studies of alternative modalities of health and healing into a one-of-a-kind system designed to help people who are sick and tired of feeling sick and tired harness the power of their intention and transform their health.
Elizabeth is a board certified dermatologist, a registered yoga teacher (RYT-200), an advanced PSYCH-K® facilitator, and a Whole Health Medicine Institute certified provider. She lives in Seattle with her children and two rescued greyhounds.
