About Dr. Iyer:
As a midwife and a naturopathic physician, I have always enjoyed a bit of the ‘town doctor’ life. Working with families to get healthy, have babies, parent, and grow older is just a snippet of what my practice entailed over the years. I am captivated by Transitions and Transformations: Birth. Postpartum. Adolescence. Menopause. Aging. Retirement. Loss. My role is to sit by the patient as a guide, educator, and resource through all of it.
