From her own clinical experience, as well as in discussions with colleagues, Naturopathic Elders and conventional medical doctors it has become apparent that in modern times, people have been experiencing increased complexity in their illnesses. Much of this is due to the consequences of industrialization and modern-day lifestyle, pressures that were not present in previous generations.

Dr. Yu found that the key to addressing these complex health issues was to get to root causes of these concerns- which brought her to the practice of Environmental Medicine, which takes into account the very real effects of environmental pollution on health, development, fertility and overall well-being that are very often overlooked or dismissed because they may not be well-understood by others.

Dr. Yu also strongly believes in educating and advocating for her patients and raising awareness on not only the effects of environmental toxicants and pollution on the health of our generation and those to follow, but the solutions that we have available to us when we are focused on our health and wellbeing as a community.

Dr. Marillea Yu is a member in good standing with the National Association of Environmental Medicine (NAEM) and is Certified Mold-Literate with Dr. Jill Crista, ND.
