A Lifetime Dedicated to Healthcare

Providing excellent healthcare alternatives has been Dr. Loscocco’s focus and delight since 1981. After training in traditional naturopathic medicine, she had a private practice as a naturopathic physician for 25 years in New Mexico. She also provided community medical services there for low-income rural patients. Dr. Loscocco developed and produced a line of herbal remedies throughout that time, which included wild harvesting of local herbs. With further studies, she realized that Asian Medicine had so much to offer her patients, particularly those with complex diseases. She pursued both Master’s and Doctoral degrees in Chinese medicine. She is grateful for having an integrative background of both western and eastern medicine, as it allows for more options in evaluating and treating each patient.
