Dr. Jillian Finker is an expert in natural medicine. She and her health team combine the latest scientific information and natural therapeutics to provide individualized treatments for Finker Wellness patients. The team at Finker Wellness uses a variety of methods—including nutrition, detoxification, hormone balancing, lifestyle changes, homeopathy, supplementation and testing like thermography—to help bring their patients back to health. 

What drew you to this profession? At eight years old, I had a severe bout of asthma. My parents brought me to a doctor who put me on medication. The drug helped my asthma but kept me up all night. My parents didn’t like staying up all night, so they brought me to a natural doctor who put me on a healthy diet and gave me supplements that cured my asthma. That was the start of my path to recognizing the profound healing that natural medicine could create.  

How does your work differ from others in your profession? We offer comprehensive natural care with over 20 years of experience healing patients with excellent results. This is done in such a way that it’s an individualized journey with each patient, so we create a manageable journey for the patient that happens naturally.

What should someone expect from working with you? We only take on patients that we know we can help. However, it is work. Patients should expect to make lifestyle changes to feel better. 

How is your practice evolving in 2023? We offer curriculum and health coaching for patients who want to take their health to the next level.

What is most important for Natural Awakenings readers to know? For almost 20 years, Finker Wellness has been helping their patients primarily by word of mouth and advertising in Natural Awakenings. We are very grateful to this magazine and our community.
