Naturopathic Physician, Author, Teacher
As a naturopathic doctor, Amy Rothenberg devoted her career to helping others holistically. In 2014, she became a patient when she was diagnosed with breast cancer and ovarian cancer, back to back. Two cancers, two separate treatments. One tough year. Then, she recovered. Not only did her training help her recover, but Dr. Rothenberg also went on to write a book for cancer survivors about how to rebound and reduce the risk of recurrence. Step one? Get yourself a combination of traditional and naturopathic doctors—or, as she calls it, “a medical dream team.”
Unfortunately, Dr. Rothenberg's cancer story continued. In 2024 she underwent one of the most aggressive treatments in all of oncology, a stem cell transplant for newly diagnosed Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia ALL). True to form, Dr. Rothenberg shares her experience and her recovery in order to bring hope (and some practical tips!) to others going through treatment for cancer.
