Dr. Brittney Lesher
NATUROPATHIC DOCTOR

I grew up on the small island of Oahu, Hawai'i and struggled with severe asthma, anxiety, and allergies all throughout my childhood.  I spent a lot of time worrying about my health and depended on several medications at a very young age. 

 

As I got older, I learned about all of the other ways that people took care of their health and I became fascinated with natural medicine, so much so that I decided to shadow a naturopathic doctor practicing in Honolulu.  I got to see how much time and care went into each patient’s visit and how each treatment plan was customized to the patient’s unique needs: blending the best of both conventional and natural therapies.  From that day on, I was hooked and decided to become a Naturopathic Doctor.

 

I left Hawai'i to follow my dreams and went on to receive my Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine from Bastyr University in Kenmore, Washington, where I was trained in primary care medicine. 

​

During my medical education, I received extra specialized training in rheumatology and autoimmune conditions, allergic and infectious diseases, as well as support for patients undergoing cancer treatment.  I went on to complete a year of residency through the Institute for Natural Medicine at a group practice in Redmond, WA before becoming a proud co-owner and primary care physician at Junction Naturopathic Medicine in West Seattle.  As of December 2023, I am once again pursuing my dreams of launching a solo practice and paying homage to my family name. 

 

Throughout my time in practice, I have helped many patients overcome their bothersome symptoms and chronic health conditions by addressing the root cause: inflammation, infections, allergies, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, and/or issues with detoxification. 

 

I take a lot of pride in being a conscientious provider that you can trust will listen, understand, and encourage you along your health journey.  My main focus is to help you deliberate your options, and equip you with the tools you will need to attain your health goals.  I strongly believe that what fosters true health are the day-to-day decisions that each of us have to make and I want to help you make the most well-informed decisions that work for YOU.  

 

When I am not working, I enjoy spending time around my favorite people, traveling & exploring, and keeping busy with various hobbies. 

 

I look forward to meeting you and working with you on your health here at Lesher Wellness!
