Dr. Beach grew up in the small town of Logan Lake, outside of Kamloops. She obtained a BSc. in Cellular, Molecular, and Microbial Biology at Thompson Rivers University, and then proceeded to medical school at Boucher Institute of Naturopathic Medicine. Dr. Beach has a general family practice, treating patients of all ages and diseases. She sees patients as individuals and develops specific treatment plans accordingly, using nutrition, botanical medicine, acupuncture, homeopathy, lifestyle counselling, and physical therapies. She believes in not only relieving symptoms, but also in finding the cause of disease and imbalance using laboratory testing, physical examination, and comprehensive medical history. Dr. Beach’s special interests include anti-aging medicine, Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy, allergy desensitization, women’s health, pediatrics, and weight loss. Dr. Beach has also obtained board certification in acupuncture and intravenous therapies, and has prescriptive authority.

There is a growing number of patients today seeking out safe, effective alternatives to either treat a diagnosed condition, or to feel their absolute best, while being proactive and preventative in maintaining optimal health.
From the time of my first day in practice, it has been my passion to assist patients in creating an approach that is suited to their goals and needs, that is safe and effective. With all of my patients, I take the time to listen to their concerns, educate them, connect dots where needed and empower them with different options and treatments to reach their health goals, in the shortest amount of time possible.
Together, we create an individualized plan using natural treatments, combined with modern science to restore and optimize your health. Our treatment plan could include nutrition and dietary recommendations, routine or specialty lab testing, and use of supplements integrated with movement and exercise and even use of bioidentical hormone treatment or pharmaceuticals, where necessary. I frequently work alongside other health care professionals and help create treatment that compliments the strategies you already have in place.
Most of my patients are dealing with some combination of the following: fatigue, anxiety, digestive concerns like bloating or constipation; hormone-related issues like menopause, endometriosis, PCOS and painful periods. Depression and chronic pain are also very common. Regardless of the current symptoms you’re having, the goal is to work as a team, and uncover the UNDERLYING CAUSES for why you’re not feeling your best. Once we determine this, we want to take steps to address these causes– not just fix your symptoms.
When we work with this approach in mind, life-changing results can happen. Newfound energy, waking rested, happy & stable moods…and relief of lingering pain, embarrassing digestion, or skin issues. This translates to a much more healthy, vibrant life–the kind I believe we’re all meant to live.
These are the conditions I most frequently treat:
Fatigue
Hormone Imbalances
IBS / Poor Digestion
Anxiety & Depression
Skin Conditions – Eczema, Acne or Hives
Food Allergies & Sensitivities
Insomnia
Post-Concussion Syndrome
It is my goal as a Naturopathic Physician to help you feel heard, help you understand why you’re feeling the way you do, and help guide you with the right corrective steps to experience true, sustainable health and your highest levels of vitality. I look forward to meeting you and helping you restore and reach optimal levels of health!
Dr. Brogan joins our clinic after moving to British Columbia from her hometown of Burlington, Ontario. After completing her Bachelor of Health Science with a Minor in Psychology from the University of Ottawa, she then went on to attend medical school at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in Toronto. Her pursuit of love, mountains and the great outdoors brought her to Kamloops in 2018.
During her internship, Dr. Brogan spent time focusing on the art of pediatrics, as she has a passion for helping children live their healthiest and happiest lives. This passion has grown to also include helping parents prepare for and support pregnancy, to give our little ones the best start possible. She employs the Vis Medicatrix Naturae, the healing power of nature, through nutritional interventions, botanicals, homeopathics, acupuncture and lifestyle counselling to make this possible.
Outside of fertility and pediatrics, Dr. Brogan welcomes the opportunity to assist all individuals reach their full health potential, by addressing the Tolle Causam, the root cause of their disease or imbalance, working with symptom picture, laboratory testing and physical examinations, ensuring every patient leaves their appointment feeling confident that they have been heard, that they are on the right path and they feel empowered in their health. Outside of the clinic, Dr. Brogan practices yoga, enjoys “forest bathing”, and trying new recipes that she can then pass on to her patients with new dietary restrictions. Dr. Brogan has also obtained board certification in acupuncture and intravenous therapies, and has prescriptive authority.
