"When I was a brand new mom, all I wanted was to make the best choices for my baby's health. There was so much information coming at me, and I was overwhelmed trying to figure out what was true, important, and helpful for me and my family. Dr. Ellie turned the volume down on all the noise. She listened to me, she used her clinical magic to listen to my baby, and we created a plan that reflected my concerns, values, and goals. She satisfied my desire for evidence-based strategies and was always ready to provide and interpret the latest studies on all sorts of treatment approaches. She also supported and encouraged me when I wanted to explore solutions for my child's health that recognized how the physical, emotional, spiritual, and traditional aspects of medicine combine to holistically promote wellness. I never felt embarrassed asking questions about "something I heard about somewhere" that I was nervous or curious about; Dr. Ellie would help me understand the benefits, considerations, alternatives, and potential risks of every path forward, and then we would take the journey together. Dr. Ellie doesn't just see the whole child, whom she regards with tender delight and a keen medical mind, but the whole family creating health together. I am so grateful that Dr. Ellie was my partner in providing a healthy start to my son's life--it's been everything a parent could ask for!"
