Dr. Misty Story

I am a Naturopathic Doctor licensed in the state of Idaho. After graduation from the National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM) in Portland, Oregon I completed a Naturopathic Gastroenterology and Hormone focused residency at Pearl Natural Health in Portland, Oregon with the late Dr. Gary Weiner. I received advanced training in naturopathic gastroenterology with preceptorships and mentorships with the amazing Dr. Allison Siebecker and Dr. Steven Sandberg-Lewis. My Bachelor of Science degree was in Integrative Therapeutics from Metropolitan State University of Denver, the first pre-med program in the nation aimed at accredited naturopathic medical programs. My areas of expertise include the treatment of SIBO (small intestine bacterial overgrowth), Celiac Disease, GERD (gastro-esophageal reflux disease), IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome), IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Crohn’s and Ulcerative Colitis), Hashimoto’s, hormone balancing, and the treatment of stress, insomnia, anxiety, and depression. My goal is to assist patients in their journey through education, encouragement and continued research.

Personal experience in the diagnosis and treatment of IBS and Celiac Disease has provided me with insight and compassion not only for the difficulty of the journey to better health, but more importantly for the possibility of regaining health. Family experience with mental health conditions, Alzheimer’s Disease, heart disease, cancer, autoimmune disease, and women’s health issues have been additional impacts for my drive to help others. I am a member of the Idaho Association of Naturopathic Physicians (IDAANP) and bthe Gastroenterology Association of Naturopathic Physicians (GastroANP).

Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.

Cherished Moments…

During my free time I enjoy gardening, cooking, baking, canning, camping, fishing and hunting. Spending time with my family and being in nature are my most cherished moments.

A forever student, I believe in staying curious in life, building community and in healthy living.

My motto: “Cherish life while blessed enough to still have it. Life and it’s many moments are precious. Live them!”
