Dr. Sarah Robinson ND has been in practice since 2014. Dr. Sarah sees a variety of patients with a wide range of health concerns. Dr. Sarah has a clinical focus on menstrual health and peri menopausal and menopausal wellbeing. Dr. Sarah takes the approach of removing the barriers within the body from regulating it’s own hormones. When these barriers are removed many common symptoms are alleviated which often results in hormone balance not requiring hormone replacement therapy. On occasion patients do require bio identical hormone therapy replacement and in these instances patients are referred to a Nurse Practitioner.
