Insurance is designed for transactions. We’re designed for transformation.
Flora Naturopathics is a cash-pay practice so we can provide deeply personalized, root-cause care without the restrictions of traditional insurance models. This allows for longer visits, thoughtful testing, and individualized treatment plans. HSA and FSA payments are accepted.
I started Flora after seeing patients with “normal” labs still feel unwell; not because nothing was wrong, but because care wasn’t looking deep enough. Flora is that next layer, using naturopathic medicine to find root causes, connect the whole body, and restore real, lasting balance.

Dr. Maura has changed my life! After nearly a decade of trying medications, remedies and doctors that temporarily would put a "band-aid" on my stomach problems, I was on a mission to find a real cure. After meeting with Dr. Maura, we spent months coming up with plans to heal my gut. Finally, about a year and a half later, I am rid of chronic bloating, stomach pains, etc., and just feel so much healthier overall. Thank you Dr. Maura!

I don’t usually talk about my health, but I want to say this: Dr. Lamoreux helped me through a very dark time. He addressed my depression from multiple angles—not just one pill, one answer. He helped me understand my labs, my gut, my sleep, my stress, and how it was all connected. I feel like I have my life back, and so do the people around me. I'm grateful.

I have been seeing Dr. Patel since the fall of 2023 and I can honestly say he is the best doctor I’ve ever had. Not only has he helped immensely with my health issues, but he also takes the time to explain what is going on with your body. He will go over your labs with you and explain in detail what they mean and the action plan he made for you to improve your health. His bedside manner is wonderful. I was hesitant to try holistic medicine but I am so glad I did. I feel so much better!! I’d recommend Dr. Patel to literally anyone (and have!).

It's so worth it to finally have a doctor who LISTENS! I started working with Dr. Maura about 8 months ago. Prior to that, I was dealing with perioral dermatitis (PD) that I had for over two years, but I had trouble finding any sort of long-term solution. I saw multiple dermatologists for my PD, but couldn't seem to find any fix (especially one that wouldn't just obliterate my system with antibiotics). I finally reached out to Dr. Maura to get help. I was cautious because I knew that it wouldn't be covered under my insurance...but it was so worth it to finally have a doctor just listen to me. Dr. Maura listened to everything that I was dealing with, from dermatologic to digestive issues, and diagnosed me with SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth). From there, she was able to prescribe a treatment plan, including diet, vitamins, prescriptions & lifestyle changes that actually had an effect. To anyone else who is at the end of their rope and feels like other doctors just don't really care...I would recommend seeing Dr. Maura!

I have been living with multiple chronic illnesses since childhood. When I began to really take my health into my own hands in the last four to five years, I found that a combination of Western medicine and Eastern holistic practices significantly helped my symptoms and quality of life. I feel so grateful that I found Dr. Maura. Her practice has been pivotal in providing support to my body, so my body can support itself.

Kurt H.
Before meeting with Dr Patel, I was struggling with super bad bloating/gas and abdominal pain. I visited several gastroenterologists for almost a full year, and I never got a straight answer about what was causing my symptoms. This was so frustrating. Dr. Patel ordered me several at home tests and we discovered I was dealing with SIBO and Leaky Gut. Finally having an answer about what was happening to my body was so refreshing. From then on I have been working with Dr. Patel to help heal from SIBO and Leaky Gut. My symptoms are not totally gone and I still have work to do. But wow, I feel A LOT better than a year ago. And that’s because of Dr. Patel. I’m excited to fully heal with his help and the structured plan he has created for me.

I had a great experience with Dr. Maura (I moved to Europe a 7 months ago.) I went to her wanting support with fertility. With confident assessment of blood work and hormone tests, I followed a supplement and nutrition regime. A few months later, I conceived naturally at the age of 44. I'm now 38 weeks pregnant, healthy and happy. I highly recommend her care and expertise with fertility and all health issues.

My only wish is that I found Dr.Maura earlier and that I reached out. I’ve suffered gut issues my entire life. She has been amazing and an incredible resource. With the tests she’s been able to administer we’ve been be able to get to the bottom of my issues. I have more energy, my bloating when I stay on track is gone and I feel more balanced. I look forward to continuing to work with Dr.Maura on my path to optimal health.
