For over two decades, Tracey has been at the forefront of integrative healthcare. As a patient advocate she has worked tirelessly to separate health-promoting information from a sea of misinformation. Most of this work has focused along the clinical importance of the gut-brain-microbiome connection, distinguishing between the astonishing promise and the hype, implementing strategies that can help patients in the here-and-now. Her vision led her to co-found and Host “Town Hall Medicine— The Microbiome Summit”.

As an experienced clinician treating IBS for over 20 years and herself living with IBS, Tracey understands that achieving optimal health starts with looking for and understanding the root cause of illness. It is only with that knowledge that we can begin developing a personalized plan through individualized medicine, diet and lifestyle intervention.

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is characterized by a variety of symptoms, including cramping, abdominal pain, bloating, gas, and diarrhea or constipation, or both. IBS is a chronic condition that you’ll need to manage long term. The cause is not well understood.

How is IBS diagnosed?

Are your visits covered by OHIP or your provincial health care plan?

What will my first visit look like?

Prior to your first visit, you will be asked to fill out intake forms providing basic information about your current health concerns, past health history, family history and other basic information.

Your first visit will be with one of our Naturopathic Doctors and will last approximately 60 minutes. Your Naturopathic Doctor will do a full assessment and devise a personalized treatment protocol incorporating our unique team of Dietitians, Nurse Practitioners and Psychotherapists.

How are we different?

We hear you. We create personalized plans designed to take your unique symptoms and concerns seriously. Our protocols are designed by a team of Gastroenterologists and reflect an evidence-based approach. We work together to make sure we are all in sync.

Will I be seeing one of the Gastroenterologists?

If your family doctor feels assessment with a Gastroenterologist is required and you haven’t already been assessed by one-our clinic will happily redirect referrals from family doctors to our Gastroenterologists.

Otherwise, our program is focused on the aspects of your treatment plan that our Gastroenterologists feel would best be provided by our specialized team members
