Emily Coombs NMD
Naturopathic Medical Doctor
Dr. Emily Coombs was first introduced to the world of natural medicine as a teenager, working in health food stores. She heard miraculous stories of healing, and also saw loss of life from treatable illness. She understood that people need a guide, with both experience in the conventional and traditional medical worlds, to make the most informed decisions for their health. Her own experience with the conventional medicine left her with more questions than answers. This began the quest to become a licensed naturopathic doctor, and a passion to share this medicine with others.
Having worked in behavioral health since completing residency at Sierra Tucson in 2017, Dr. Coombs has a high skillset for those who are feeling stuck with the conventional model of psychiatric care, or who value a team based approach. With specialty training in mind-body medicine, pain reprocessing therapy, counseling, addiction and recovery, community medicine, neuromodulation, and specialized medicine for veterans, Dr. Coombs has a multifaceted approach to individualized patient care.
Dr. Coombs will work closely with her patients, to help provide goals and treatment plans that are catered to the individual, rather than the diagnosis. Dr. Coombs believes that you are more than just your “diagnosis”, and is passionate about patient education and empowerment.
In her spare time, she enjoys volunteering, yoga, thrifting vintage clothes, skydiving, traveling, and snuggling with her rescue pittie, Skunk.
