You've done the work. So why don't you feel better?

Most of our patients come to us after seeing several doctors, trying the protocols, and taking a long list of supplements. Some feel worse with every new thing they add. Others have improved, then stalled. If that sounds familiar, the problem is rarely effort. It is usually the order things are being done in.

We start with what is in the way.

Your body can only take on so much at once. Dr. Daniel's approach, the Longevity Hierarchy™, identifies what is using up your capacity, whether that is a hidden load such as mold or infection, or a nervous system and immune system stuck on high alert, and addresses it first. The same treatments, in a better order, can lead to very different results.

What we focus on

Mold and environmental illness

When hidden exposures at home, at work or from the past are weighing on your body, we guide you through recovery at a pace your body can sustain.

Mast cell activation and reactivity

What your care includes

Every plan starts with understanding you, then builds from there.

Your story

Your history holds many of the clues: family background, early life, past illnesses and exposures, and what you’ve noticed about your own body. We want to hear all of it.

Your medical records

We review your past records and testing, so we fill real gaps and don’t repeat tests you’ve already had.

Targeted lab testing

Each test is chosen to answer a specific question. Testing may include blood work, comprehensive stool and urine tests, and sometimes saliva, looking at hormones and thyroid, nutrient status, metabolism, mitochondrial function, the microbiome, toxic burden, immune function, hidden infections and genomics.

Nervous system regulation

A settled nervous system makes healing easier. Brain retraining coaching and Depth Hypnosis teach practices that help your body move out of fight-or-flight. For many of our patients, this has been one of the most important parts of care.

Nutrition and health coaching

Nutrition and detox coaching between visits helps you put your plan into practice.

Supplements

Each supplement has a job: correcting a deficiency or supporting a specific goal. The aim isn’t a lifelong list. Professional-grade products are available through our Fullscript store →

Prescriptions

When medication helps, we prescribe it, often for a limited time. This can include bioidentical hormones, thyroid medication, antifungals, low-dose naltrexone and peptides, such as GLP-1 medications. When the timing is right, we can also help you reduce medications you may no longer need.

What patients say

“I've had mysterious, varied symptoms for over 10 years, and I've been playing medical whack-a-mole for what seems like an eternity. Dr. Stephanie is the first doctor to consider that maybe all these weird things are connected (as I've always suspected), and really listened to my concerns. I'm so glad I finally bit the bullet to start working with Dr. Stephanie.”

Tess A.

“She identified that my mild cognitive symptoms and gut issues were probably related to mold. She gave me a list of mold experts and sure enough there was mold in our house that you couldn't see or smell. After following her recommendations and supplements plan I am feeling much better. She also helps me navigate what to request from my primary care doctor. I am so grateful for her help and expertise!”

Nadia M.

“I have been looking for doctors like Dr. Daniel for nearly a decade. I have seen naturopaths and functional medicine doctors, and while many were very good, none gave me hope for truly getting to the root of my problems and truly healing me. Stephanie is one in a million, and I am so glad I found her.”
