About Dr. Rachelle

Dr. Rachelle was inspired by life experiences and family health concerns to prevent and treat chronic illnesses.  She is passionate about Women’s Health, Weight Loss, Hormone Balancing, and Digestive Health. Dr. Rachelle addresses such concerns by using modalities such as Nutritional medicine (therapeutic diets, nutrient supplements, nutritional IV therapy), Botanical medicine, Chinese medicine, Homeopathy, and Physical medicine.   At the core of all of this is health education and lifestyle counseling. Dr. Rachelle loves working with people and draws on experiences in working in various communities and with various cultures.

Dr. Rachelle recently opened her own practice in Oakland, California after being an Associate at Holistic Fertility Center in Berkeley and completing a primary care Residency program in San Francisco.  She received her Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine and Masters of Science in Oriental Medicine from National College of Natural Medicine (now National University of Natural Medicine) in Portland, Oregon.  During this time, Dr. Rachelle did rotations in Chronic Care, Women’s Health, Naturopathic Cardiopulmonary Care, and Botanical and Anthroposophical medicine. Dr. Rachelle is excited to bring her style of holistic medicine to the Bay area!

What is Naturopathic Medicine?

Naturopathic medicine is medicine that uses natural substances and modalities to get the body back into balance and stimulate the body’s natural process of healing.  These naturopathic modalities are often gentler on the body and minimize the risk of harmful side effects.  Naturopathic therapies include nutrition therapy (including vitamin injections and IV infusions), herbal medicine, homeopathy, gentle physical therapy, and lifestyle counseling.  


Naturopathic doctors are trained in the art and science of natural health care at one of the eight available accredited medical colleges or universities.  Naturopathic doctors are equally trained as medical doctors with emphasis on naturopathic therapies. Naturopathic doctors aim to identify and treat the cause of illness and treat the whole person in order to prevent disease.
