Biography
Dr. West graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Cellular Biology from California State University Fullerton in southern CA where she was raised. She then moved to Canada and completed a 5 year doctorate in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) at Pacific Rim College of Integrative and Complementary Medicine in Victoria, British Columbia. Dr. West is Nationally Board Certified in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine by the NCCAOM and licensed with the state of Arizona. Dr. West has always been passionate about medicine, healing, preventative medicine, and working with her hands. During all of her educational years she worked as an emergency Veterinary Technician which has refined her skills and intuition, whether her patients are humans or animals, to facilitate the best care to those she treats. With an emphasis on internal medicine, infertility, and pain management, Dr. West strives to bring her knowledge, compassion, and experience to an expanding healthcare field where she can help her patients start living the life they always wanted. When Dr. West isn't working, she is spending time with her family, exercising, learning to better care for her patients, volunteering her time as a certified hospice volunteer for Hospice of the West, and helping with animal causes. She met her husband during graduate school in Canada and he has since left the Royal Canadian Air Force to move back to the US with her where he is now studying full time. They have an old boy kitty named Toaster and a high energy young Boston Terrier named Mia Hambone.

Where do I begin... I just can't say enough good things about Mend Acupuncture. The office is always clean and I never have to wait for a room. Rob is always so professional and kind to greet you at every visit. Dr. West is an absolute Gem of a human being and so amazing at what she does. She takes the time to listen to every concern and uses her vast knowledge and skills to treat every concern with care and respect. They don't treat you like an everyday patient or customer, they treat you like family. There is no place like Mend Acupuncture and I feel so lucky to have found them. Dr. West is extremely knowledgeable. When I describe a particular ache or pain, she immediately knows what and where the problem is. She has made many recommendations for exercise and supplements to assist with my overall health. Both Dr. West and Rob are very friendly and compassionate and have created a very warm and welcoming environment. They are truly wonderful people. Acupuncture has made a tremendous difference in my life and I thank Mend Acupuncture for that!
