Claudia Bustamante, ND, MScN, IFMCP 

 

Sobre mí

Soy médica naturópata con formación especializada en enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal (EII), trasplante de microbiota fecal (TMF) y medicina funcional. Integro enfoques naturopáticos basados en evidencia científica con los principios de la medicina funcional para abordar distintas condiciones médicas. Mi enfoque clínico incluye trastornos gastrointestinales, salud de la mujer y la salud cardiometabólica.
Mientras trabajaba como nutricionista en un hospital, observé una gran necesidad de enfoques integrativos para las enfermedades crónicas. Esto me inspiró a dedicarme al coaching de salud holística, luego a realizar una maestría en nutrición y finalmente a convertirme en un médico naturópata. Mi formación me permite tener una visión integral de la salud, integrando la medicina convencional con la medicina natural para brindar a mis pacientes un tratamiento integrativo y personalizado. Mi misión como doctora, es ayudar a mis pacientes a comprender su cuerpo y empoderarlos para que realicen cambios en su estilo de vida que optimicen su bienestar.
Realizo consultas médicas y educativas tanto en inglés como en español, lo que me permite atender a una población diversa de pacientes.

“My experience with Dr. Claudia has truly been life-changing. After struggling for years with GI symptoms and seeing multiple doctors who ruled out cancer but couldn't tell me what was causing my symptoms or what I could do to resolve them, I finally started working with Dr. Claudia and finally got some answers. My case didn't resolve quickly or easily, but Dr. Claudia made me feel like she was sticking with me, listening, thinking, trying things, and patiently explaining what she wanted to try and why. Yes, she helped me finally heal, but even more remarkable to me was the way she didn't give up, the way she always made me feel heard and cared for.”

"Dr. Claudia Bustamante has been treating me for the past three years, ever since I was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease. At the time, I was in poor health, experiencing frequent episodes of diarrhea and stomach pain.

Since I began receiving treatment from Dr. Bustamante, I’ve been doing very well. This is reflected in the results of the fecal calprotectin tests she regularly asks me to take, which have been consistently decreasing—my most recent result was 92.

Thank you very much, Dr. Bustamante, for your accurate diagnosis and effective treatment."

“Dr. Claudia has been a fabulous resource for me the past couple of years. Her naturopathic background in gastroenterology has helped me work through Eosinophilic Esophagitis, Gastric Intestinal Metaplasia, and two Diverticulitis flares. Her approach is very supportive and calming. Dr. Claudia does an excellent job summarizing our visits and providing menu options.

She is an essential resource for me as I work to get to root causes and healing.”

“Even though I’ve only worked with Dr. Claudia Bustamante for the last couple of months, the experience has already been truly transformational. From the very beginning, she has been present, accessible, and responsive—meeting urgent needs with compassion, patience, and expertise.

What makes her stand out is her holistic approach to care. She doesn’t just treat the symptoms—she works to address the root causes of my chronic illness, using every tool available to find thoughtful, personalized solutions. She’s knowledgeable, data-driven, and always focused on what we can do, which has been incredibly empowering.

Dr. Bustamante has made treatment options I once thought were out of reach a reality. She’s lifted me up during the most challenging moments and made me feel truly cared for—not just as a patient, but as a whole person.

I’m genuinely excited to continue this journey with her and feel hopeful about managing my condition in a way that honors my full self. I highly recommend.”
