Nara Functional Medicine and Acupuncture
I began my 30-year medical career as an MD* in the former Soviet Union, where I built a strong foundation in Western clinical medicine.
After moving to the United States, I earned a Master’s degree in Oriental Medicine and completed advanced training in Functional Medicine.
By integrating Western medical expertise with the healing methods of Oriental medicine, I offer a faster, more effective, and truly comprehensive approach to patient care.
I specialize in treating pain, anxiety, inflammation, and stress-related conditions using evidence-based acupuncture and root-cause functional medicine.
I am board certified and currently hold an active professional license.
