DR. DEBBIE WHITTINGTON, ND

Dr. Whittington brings a distinctive, personal approach to her patients to customize a natural, treatment plan for each individual.  Dr. Whittington practices general family medicine with a focus on healthy aging, naturopathic dermatology and digestive health.  Also, Dr. Whittington encourages those with acute or no serious complaints, including children, to come in for a visit to learn how to lay the foundation for lifelong great health.  Dr. Whittington's main modalities include therapeutic nutrition, hormone therapy, CranioSacral therapy, Intense Pulse Light therapy, botanical medicine, homeopathy, and counseling.  She is a Bastyr University graduate and has trained with both medical doctors and naturopathic physicians.
 
Dr. Whittington has recently added Intense Pulse Light Therapy (IPL) to treat skin conditions that may not always be easy to treat.
