Elizabeth Miller | Naturopathic Intern
Elizabeth discovered a passion for pediatrics when she was a camp counsellor for children dealing with cancer. She found so much reward in helping children during this time that she completed a 1 year internship focusing on naturopathic pediatrics while studying at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (2021).
Her approach to care involves helping children develop their immune system and brains to build the foundation to a strong and happy life.
She has experience working with infants up to adolescents with focuses on eczema, chronic infections, digestive concerns, ADHD, depression, anxiety, and nutritional support. She is there to help you discover the best healing path for your child based on current evidence and natural medicine, without having to rely on “Dr. Google”.
