Dr. Priyanka Gupta, ND
Naturopathic Doctor
“How can I best serve my patients” is a question that drives my overall approach to my practice. As a constant learner, I am always researching to find evidence based solutions for my patient’s concerns. My mission is to help people understand the connection between mind, body and spirit as well as provide answers to chronic health concerns.
When I graduated in 2002 from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine, the concept of functional medicine and healing from the root cause seemed fringe. Very few conventional doctors and even patients were on board with this idea when speaking about chronic health conditions. Over the years, I am amazed at how educated and well informed patients are about their health and their willingness to make necessary changes to their health. This makes the conversation about interventions much easier.
I believe that a person can heal given the right tools and guidance. In an era when google can provide answers, it can also be a confusing time not understanding what symptoms are telling you about your body. By using testing and functional medicine systems reviews, together we can uncover where the imbalances are originating from.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is IV vitamin therapy, and how can it benefit me?
IV vitamin therapy delivers vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients directly into the bloodstream, allowing for faster absorption and greater effectiveness. It can help boost energy, support immunity, improve hydration, and aid in recovery from illness or stress.
Is IV vitamin therapy safe?
IV vitamin therapy is generally safe when administered by trained professionals. At West End Women’s Health, we tailor each treatment to individual needs and monitor for any potential reactions, ensuring a safe and effective experience.
What is bioidentical hormone therapy, and how does it work?
Bioidentical hormone therapy uses hormones that are chemically identical to those naturally produced by the body. BHT aims to balance hormone levels, which can help alleviate symptoms associated with hormonal changes such as menopause, perimenopause, or other hormonal imbalances. The therapy typically involves a personalized approach, using hormones derived from plant sources and formulated to suit each individual’s needs.
What are the benefits of bioidentical hormone therapy?
BHT can help alleviate a range of symptoms caused by hormonal imbalances, such as hot flashes, night sweats, fatigue, mood swings, weight gain, and reduced libido. Many patients report an improvement in their overall energy levels, mood, and quality of life. However, the specific benefits can vary depending on each person’s unique hormonal profile and health goals.
Is bioidentical hormone therapy safe?
BHT is generally considered safe when prescribed and monitored by a qualified healthcare provider. However, like any therapy, it can have risks and side effects, which vary depending on individual health factors. At West End Women’s Health, we conduct thorough assessments before starting BHT and offer ongoing monitoring to ensure each treatment plan is effective and safe for our patients.
