Dr. Kim Hapke It happens to all of us at some point — we’re confronted with health issues and a decision: Do nothing, or go on medications? “Natural medicine can fill that gap and be really effective,” says Dr. Kim Hapke. Dr. Hapke can suggest safer alternatives and/or suggest ways that you can use natural medicine to augment medications to mitigate side- effects or improve results. It’s important that you don’t tinker on your own — you need to have the help of an expert, and that is Dr. Hapke. With in- depth knowledge and access to products of known and consistent high quality, she can help you get the results you want safely. And if you’re worried about expense, Dr. Hapke can help. In fact, she can often help you winnow down the amount of stuff you’re purchasing and taking. “I can work with people’s budgets and get them treatment that works within their budget,” she says.
