Dr. Heather Krebsbach is a functional medicine naturopathic doctor and licensed acupuncturist with nearly two decades of experience supporting patients through all stages of life. Her clinical focus includes hormone and thyroid health, digestive wellness, fertility, autoimmune conditions, and adjunctive cancer care. While she is not a primary care physician, Dr. Krebsbach provides collaborative, systems-based care that complements your existing healthcare team.
A Whole-Person Approach to Healing
Dr. Krebsbach’s passion for medicine began during a formative six-month sabbatical in India, where she explored Eastern healing traditions and developed a deep appreciation for treating the whole person. That experience sparked her commitment to identifying and treating the root causes of illness while addressing the broader systems that influence health.
Her approach blends the best of modern and traditional medicine. She combines nutraceuticals, botanical medicine, lifestyle therapy, acupuncture, regenerative injections, and prescription treatments—including hormone replacement therapy (HRT)—to create comprehensive, individualized care plans. She emphasizes endocrine and digestive health as key drivers of energy, vitality, and long-term wellness.
Specialized Training and Experience
Dr. Krebsbach earned her doctorate from the National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM), where she completed dual degrees in Naturopathic and Classical Chinese Medicine. She has trained closely with leading physicians in women’s health, oncology, endocrinology, and HIV care. Following her graduation, she completed a two-year residency focused on integrative cancer care and has remained deeply involved in mentoring and education ever since. Dr. Krebsbach also helped establish a nationally accredited naturopathic residency program at Inner Gate Health & Wellness, where she continues to train and support the next generation of naturopathic physicians.
She is nationally board certified and licensed in Oregon, with a longstanding commitment to evidence-informed, patient-centered care.
A Lifelong Educator & Advocate for Health
As an educator, investigator, and lifelong learner, Dr. Krebsbach empowers her patients to participate fully in their own healing. She values long-term relationships with patients and considers it an honor to care for individuals, their families, and their communities.
