Cancer Care

Dr. Stark ND has devoted her work to serving patients with cancer. Naturopathic cancer care can support you through all stages of your cancer journey, both during and apart from conventional therapies.

You've been handed a diagnosis of cancer.

And you know there's more available to you than what you've been offered so far. You want to understand why not just treat what's in front of you. You're ready to make real changes. And you know your life is worth Thriving for.

Alongside conventional treatment

If you're heading into surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy or radiation, Dr Stark ND will build a plan of evidence-informed therapies that combine safely with it supporting your anti-cancer outcomes and easing the side effects of what you're going through.

Looking at what's driving it

Conventional treatment focuses on the cancer itself. Dr Stark's additional training in German New Medicine and the Metabolic Approach to Cancer (Dr Nasha Winters ND) looks underneath it, at the root causes driving the disease.

This work can be done before, during or after conventional therapy. It can also help you decide whether and when conventional therapy is right for you, or give you a way forward when it isn't an option.

Your first visit

Ninety minutes, and it begins before you arrive. We'll go through your journey so far, the contributing factors, your history, your current labs and imaging. We'll name your primary concerns and where you want to get to. From there we build the plan together which may include further testing, supplements, work you'll do at home, or in-clinic therapies.

If you're looking for an approach limited to diet and lifestyle only, homeopathy, acupuncture or energy medicine, we may refer you to a practitioner better suited to support you.

What follows

We'll keep collaborating through follow-up visits, on a timeline that fits where you are. If you're in active cancer or active treatment, that usually means monthly.
