Too often we leave medical offices feeling frustrated, confused & powerless.

It is because of everything I learned and went through as a patient that I have made it my mission to use my privilege as a physician to empower us to thrive in systems that at times feel like they are built to overwhelm.

Values I Live by and Teach

Own Our Story

Focus on what you have to offer and also be willing to admit when you need guidance or support.

Take the Pressure Off Through Preparation

Practice. Invest in yourself.
We aren’t going for perfect but we are aiming for significant progress. 

Get Comfortable with the Uncomfortable

Take back control with action. Push your boundaries..a bit. There will always be a leap of faith required when you are trying to build a new skill. Embrace it. 

Simple. 
Sustainable.

Poised. 
Purposeful.

Empowering
Education.

Delicious Meals
to nourish the whole family.

Dr. Wada is awesome.
She is very thoughtful & attentive to my concerns. Goes above & beyond to treat my condition. She has vast knowledge which enables her to think outside the box for possible causes, diagnoses, symptoms & treatments.
Dr. Wada was amazing!
She was attentive, she genuinely cared, and gave me excellent resources to read about chronic illness. She is dedicated to seeing me get better, and having a doctor who believes something is going wrong in my body, even though we can't quite treat it yet, is a step. Being heard and validated has meant so much.
I am extremely impressed by the professionalism demonstrated by Dr. Wada. She was so easy to talk with and so knowledgeable and equipped to explain what the prior blood testing revealed and how we would proceed. Very impressive. I went into the appointment confused and concerned and left feeling much more confident.
