Diagnostics
Our laboratory services include both conventional testing—typically processed through major laboratories such as Quest Diagnostics, Interpath Laboratory, and LabCorp—as well as specialized testing for more complex health concerns. Specialty testing options may include heavy metals analysis, comprehensive stool analysis with parasitology, GI microbiome testing, food sensitivity and allergy panels, salivary cortisol assessment, SIBO breath testing, Lyme disease and coinfection panels, mold and mycotoxin testing, and sinus PCR/NGS microbial analysis.
We also utilize Rupa Health, which provides access to more than 3,000 specialty laboratory tests from over 30 diagnostic companies. All laboratory testing requires a physician’s order, which can be provided during your initial office visit or at a follow-up appointment after clinical evaluation.
To gain additional insight into the mind–body aspects of your health, we may also perform informational assessments using muscle response testing.

Doctor Kim offers a complimentary 15-minute introductory phone consultation to help you determine whether her approach to naturopathic care is the right fit for your needs.

Medical Freedom Support
We believe every patient has the right to medical privacy and to make their own healthcare decisions. Our clinic is committed to protecting your medical privacy and supporting informed, voluntary choices, free from pressure or coercion.
Vaccines - Our clinic recognize that vaccines are an important part of modern medicine, while also understanding that patients may have questions or concerns. We respect every patient’s belief and personal decision. While we do not currently administer vaccines in our clinic, they are widely available through local medical clinics, public health departments, and pharmacies.
Alternative Medical Choices - We support patients who choose to decline or delay standard treatments, provided they are fully informed of the potential risks. When appropriate, we support competent adult patients in making these decisions, provided they understand the potential risks. In some cases, ongoing care with medical specialists may still be required. For example, patients with active cancer must remain under the supervision of an oncologist while receiving care with us.
Our priority is your safety and well-being. If a requested treatment is considered unsafe or potentially harmful, we may decline to provide it while working with you to explore safe, appropriate alternatives.
