Dr. Sand offers virtual educational consults through her Elevate practice for anyone living outside of Oregon or outside of the United States.
NOT IN OREGON? NO PROBLEM.
You've done everything "right" — and you still don't feel well. Your labs come back normal, you're handed a pamphlet, and you leave with more questions than answers. Sound familiar?
Elevate was founded by Dr. Rebecca Sand, ND, MSAOM, LAc, to fill the gap between conventional care and the deeper understanding your body deserves. Through one-on-one educational consultations, Dr. Sand helps clients learn how to interpret their health picture through a functional lens — exploring how gut health, hormones, nutrition, and lifestyle interconnect in ways that mainstream medicine rarely has time to address.
This is not a medical practice. Elevate provides educational consulting only — no diagnoses, no prescriptions, no treatment plans. What you will find here is a knowledgeable guide who can help you ask better questions, understand your lab work in context, and walk into your next provider appointment feeling informed and empowered.
Dr. Sand brings advanced training in naturopathic medicine and acupuncture & Chinese medicine, and is licensed in the state of Oregon. She works with clients nationwide via telehealth, meeting you wherever you are — literally and figuratively.
As the host of The Turd Nerds podcast, Dr. Sand has built a community of people who aren't afraid to go deep on gut health, hormones, and the science your doctor didn't have time to explain. If the podcast brought you here, you already know her approach: thorough, evidence-informed, and refreshingly direct.
