Hello! My name is Jenn and I am so glad I am beginning this with you all! It’s something I have been looking for and I finally took the plunge. I’ve worked in healthcare before as a paramedic and saw a few things that worked in western medicine that were pretty spectacular, but also saw the damage western healthcare does by overmedicating with pharmaceuticals, among other things. I like Doc’s approach where he sees western medicine and herbalism working together. I believe we do need both sides of the spectrum, but I think now is a time for herbalism and naturopathy to be more in the forefront of our daily at home medical care and western medicine as the “backup” to when we need further care. A time when we take more control of our health and minimize our dependence on a broken system.
And so here I am to learn this side of healthcare and I am so excited to begin and to get to know some of you and learn from you and from doc!
