Gillian Ehrlich

Gillian is a down to earth, wise practitioner, and I feel confident referring clients to her for various medical needs. Gillian has also studied at the Ayurvedic Institute and I feel privileged to have been able to learn together over the years with our teacher, Dr. Vasant Lad.  Dr. Gillian Ehrlich’s approach to patient care seamlessly blends treating acute care issues with complex management of chronic disease. In addition to practicing Primary Care, she is a certified practitioner through the Institute of Functional Medicine and incorporates Ayurvedic teachings into her practice.  Patients are invited to be active collaborators in their health and patient education is a focus in every visit. Through the culmination of her experiences, she firmly believes we are built for transformation and healing and are able to start that journey in whatever shoes we currently stand.
