About Dr. Santora

Dr. Santora is the southwest valley's premier Naturopathic Physician, serving the needs of patients since 2003.  Her office is located in Litchfield Park, AZ.  Accepting new patients now.

 

Dr. Santora brings to her patients a life long passion and devotion to medicine. Her extensive travels and sojourn abroad allowed her to experience natural medicine as the mainstream profession that it is outside the U.S.A.

​

Her undergraduate degrees are in International business, foreign languages and a master’s degree in Education. She is fluent in French, Spanish, and Italian. She is a certified teacher of these languages as well as ESL and has taught in the NY public school system for 8 years. Her role as teacher dealing with students of different cultures puts her at ease with all, and segues nicely into her present career as a Naturopathic Physician, since the Latin meaning of “doctor” is “teacher”.

The mind-body connection plays an exceedingly important role in healing the body.

She practices clinical nutrition, acupuncture, counseling, and botanical medicine in addition to conventional perspective medicine.
