Meet The Team
Meet DR. ANDREA
Dr. Andrea Duvnjak Lehman is a licensed Naturopathic Physician with a focus in Functional Medicine.
Health and wellness has always been a passion for Dr. Andrea, but her eyes truly opened to the body's incredible ability to heal itself while working with Dr. Terry Wahls and assisting with her Multiple Sclerosis Research and Clinical Trials at The University of Iowa. Seeing first-hand the power of nutrition and individualized health care to reverse illness and restore the body to health made Dr. Andrea realize that this is exactly what she wanted to spend her career helping patients achieve.
Dr. Andrea also holds a doctorate in chiropractic medicine.
Her medical education included training in conventional medicine, advanced laboratory testing and diagnosis, physical medicine, pharmaceuticals and minor surgery, as well as traditional healing principles and modalities such as botanical medicines, medical-grade supplementation, acupuncture and most importantly addressing the determinants of health (diet, lifestyle, environmental factors, etc.). This allows us to discover each individual's unique needs and imbalances to allow the body to heal from disease and achieve a true state of health and well-being. Training in Naturopathic Medicine provides a deep understanding of the human body as well as an understanding that our body is not just separate parts and organ systems, but one whole unit that is completely interconnected in everything that it does.
Dr. Andrea knows that the human body is incredibly intelligent, resilient and capable of healing at all levels of illness if given the proper conditions for health.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to treating any symptom or condition, which is why it is so important to treat the person, not the disease. We are all complex and unique individuals with completely different backgrounds, genetics, lifestyles, environmental and toxic exposures and risk factors that all contribute to our development of symptoms and disease in a unique way.Â
She specializes in functional medicine, advanced lab testing and blood work analysis, women’s health, digestive health, functional endocrinology, and nutrition, but also works with a wide variety of different health conditions.
