Your Kidneys, Your Whole Body, One Expert in Your Corner
If you or someone you love is facing kidney disease, you already know the feeling: a diagnosis handed to you in a rushed appointment, a stack of lab numbers nobody fully explained, and a quiet sense that you’re being managed — but not truly cared for as a whole person.
I’m Naturopathic Doctor Randi Shannon, and that gap is exactly what I exist to fill.
Conventional nephrology is essential — for monitoring, medication, dialysis, and transplant, there is no substitute, and I work hand-in-hand with your medical team. But somewhere between appointments, the rest of you gets left out: your energy, your nutrition, your other conditions, your day-to-day quality of life, and the root causes quietly driving the whole thing. That’s my work.
Why generic “kidney advice” can do more harm than good
The internet is full of “kidney detox” teas, miracle cures, and one-size-fits-all food lists — and a lot of it is genuinely dangerous for kidney patients. What helps one person can harm another, because kidney care is intensely individual. There is no single right answer you can copy from a blog. There is only your body, your labs, and your plan — built carefully, safely, and with your medical team in the loop. That’s not something you DIY. That’s something you do with an expert.
Who I help
- Newly diagnosed and determined to protect the function you have
- Living with diabetes or high blood pressure and wanting to get ahead of kidney damage
- On dialysis and longing to feel like yourself again
- Waiting for — or recovering from — a transplant and wanting your whole body as strong as possible
Wherever you are on that path, you are not out of options for feeling better.
The promise
I can’t promise miracles, and I’ll never pretend to. What I can promise is this: a knowledgeable, compassionate naturopathic expert who treats the whole you, works alongside your doctors, and helps you live better through this — with more energy, more understanding, and more hope than you walked in with.
