Dr. Melanie MacIver is a naturopathic doctor and local herbalist who has been practising in the Sea-to-Sky for over 20 years.

Her clinical focus is perimenopause and menopause, and other hormone related concerns including weight loss resistance, endometriosis, PCOS, PMDD, and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.
