Naturopathic medicine is a distinct medical philosophy that believes in the innate healing power of the body. By integrating emerging medical research with traditional healing modalities, naturopathic doctors assess the whole person and remove obstacles to healing while prescribing the most effective and least harmful treatments to restore health. Getting to the root cause of health issues and of focusing on prevention of illness are core principles.

Dr. Molly does not function as a primary care doctor but does enjoy being the integrative, “big picture” doctor on your healthcare team. She focuses on the holistic modalities that most primary care doctors and specialists don’t have expertise in, making her a great supplement to your mainstream, insurance-based care.

During our first visit we do a deep dive into you and your health, past and present. We review your health history, supplements, medications, diet, daily routine, sleep, stress, and any recent labs you’ve completed. This provides clues about where we need to investigate further or provide support as we create a plan with recommendations for labs, diet, supplements and lifestyle as indicated by your individual health issue.

As a naturopathic doctor, Dr. Molly has extensive training in diet and lifestyle medicine, herbal medicine, homeopathy, hydrotherapy, as well as pharmaceutical medicine. Multiple therapeutics may be prescribed together to influence the healing of the body, mind, and spirit.

Dr. Molly uses conventional lab tests through LabCorp or Quest as well as functional stool, urine and saliva tests like the DUTCH test and GI-MAP to thoroughly assess the root cause of your health issue.

Yes, in addition to visits in Dr. Molly’s Santa Monica office she offers virtual appointments for people residing anywhere in California.

Dr. Molly does not take insurance but can provide a superbill after your visit which you can submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement. Some tests Dr. Molly orders can be done through LabCorp or Quest which do take most insurances. Since each insurance company and plan is different, it's best to check with your insurance to see what they may cover but many PPO insurances will provide coverage for standard labs ordered and partial reimbursement for the visits.
