Sara Wood.  She's pretty young, she has two adopted pibbles, wears really cute boots, and she's awesome.  

If you go in with an issue, she's not afraid to prescribe meds that will make it better, but she'll also come up with a more long term naturopathic solution to whatever it was.  So, when I broke out in a rash (a freaky form of eczema that's evil) due to stress, she wrote me a script for the steroid cream to clear it up.  And then gave me some ideas and supplements to deal with stress better.  I already feel better, and it was 3 weeks ago.  She always asks for a follow-up e-mail a few weeks later, and she actually responds to it quickly as well as any other time you  have questions.  Plus, I called Monday morning, and they were able to get me in at 1PM.  My derm couldn't get me in until January.

I used to go to Heidi Peterson in SW Portland. She is amazing. I spoke to my friend who is a Naturopath here in Forest Grove and she knew Heidi and raved about her.

Good post, Daisy! This is handy info for me, too!

I always forget to ask about allergy testing, but my nail lady (she's the one who suggested the clinic to begin with) has had it done there with a vega machine?  I'm not sure what it is or how it works.  : )  I'm also not sure about candida testing.
