Leslie Peterson received her Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine from Bastyr University in 1996. Her educational emphasis focused on women’s healthcare and natural childbirth. She has been practicing in Salt Lake City, Utah since 1998. Dr. Peterson enjoys a regular yoga practice, cooking nutritious and delicious meals, spending time in nature with her family and friends, and reading thought-provoking literature.

As a naturopath, Dr. Leslie Peterson believes in supporting nature's intention for healing by treating the whole person. Through thoughtful history taking, physical examination, and specific laboratory testing Dr. Peterson helps to uncover the underlying causes of disease which can then be treated appropriately.

With the specific and individualized use of nutritional support, herbal medicine, lifestyle modifications, detoxification, bioidentical hormones (such as thyroid hormone, estrogen/progesterone or testosterone), and/or prescription medications, Dr. Peterson can help you find and restore the health you deserve.

True healing is a result of restoring balance to all aspects of the body, mind and spirit. As a Naturopathic Physician, it is Dr. Peterson's job to support the physical body, while the individual evolves emotionally and spiritually.

Ultimately, the responsibility for healing lies with you, the individual. By working in a close partnership with Dr. Peterson and following the recommendations made to you, you can truly heal and live a more joyous, health-promoting life. 

“Just being yourself and being ready to understand others is how to extend your practice into everyday life.”
