Meet Zia Robles Hernandez

I've read and heard that the way we do one thing, we do everything . 
I've been a curious human being since I can remember.  I've always wanted to know why things happen, why we do things in the way we do, and  always trying to find a better answer to my evolving questions.  
I didn't know that this curiosity would take me to practicing as a naturopathic doctor - but with a few loops and twists, turns along the way - I've now been in practice for over 10 years in this wonderful state. 
I can say with a degree of certainty, that the way I approach my life, is how I approach any being I interact with  - with curiosity, an open mind and an eagerness to learn.   
I have been blessed with a wonderful family - the one I was born into, and the ones I've chosen - and I truly enjoy making memories and having adventures with family and friends!
