About Dr. Jenny Tufenkian, ND:
Dr. Jenny Tufenkian, ND is a Functional Medicine Educator and Naturopathic Physician who completed her training and residency at National University of Natural Medicine (formerly NCNM). She went on to be a sought after adjunct clinical faculty member and ran her own successful private practice in Portland, Oregon.
Dr Tufenkian has been treating chronic illness for two decades and has helped her patients, students, and fellow physicians increase their understanding of complex chronic disease.
A Chronic Fatigue Syndrome sufferer herself, she had no choice but to dig deep into the literature and uncover the root causes of CFS. Through her research and experience, she developed an effective road map for lasting change in her patients. Seeing them flourish after they had given up all hope. Many of these patients had seen many wonderful physicians but they did not know how to assess all the potential root causes of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis & CFS. This led to her realization that she needed to share her clinical wisdom with the wider medical community.
Her passion is educating, empowering, and instilling new perspectives, awareness and ultimately hope. She sees the potential for a 'positive domino effect' of her work. By guiding others to increase their energy they, in turn, have the vitality to live their purpose, to shine their light fully- and benefit all who cross their path.
She has created on-line and in-person tools for practitioners and individuals who desire to live with more vitality. She is also a mom of two, happily married, and loves her time outdoors and in the kitchen.
