Dr. Alanna Rinas, ND has the pleasure of enjoying a diverse naturopathic practice. Her experience and education have helped her to develop a keen interest in cancer care, anti-aging, hormones and bio-identical hormone therapy, digestive issues, nutrition, and IV therapies.

Originating from just outside of Edmonton, Dr. Rinas received her Bachelor of Science in biological sciences from the University of Alberta before moving to Vancouver to attend the Boucher Institute of Naturopathic Medicine.

Dr. Rinas aspires to help patients feel good!
