First doctor in 10 years who listened to my symptoms and worked with my dosage. Every other Doctor looked at my lab results and said I was fine regardless of how I felt. Thanks so much.

Hi! I’m Dr. Sarah Akhunji. I’m board certified in Internal Medicine and completed my residency at the University of Arizona. I completed a two year fellowship in Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine. I believe in collaborating with my patients to help them achieve their health goals through both conventional and alternative therapies.
As a side note, I also have hypothyroidism and understand the frustration that can be involved from a patient standpoint.
My hobbies include hiking, writing, and spending time with my family.
