About Dr. Sarah Mumaw, ND
I’m a Washington, DC-licensed naturopathic physician.
I look beyond the diagnosis to understand how genetic variants, nutrient status, infections, environmental exposures, stress, and lifestyle factors converge to create maladaptive physiologic patterns. My focus is on identifying upstream drivers of imbalance and supporting the body’s innate capacity to return to more adaptive function using evidence-informed natural therapeutics, bioidentical hormones, targeted nutrigenomics, and lifestyle.
Who I Am
Before becoming a doctor, I was a patient seeking answers.
My commitment to this work comes from my own experience navigating complex chronic illness after years of being told that everything looked fine. I know what it feels like to be unwell, to be dismissed, and to keep searching for answers. That experience shapes the way I listen, the way I practice, and the way I approach care.
