Hello! I’m Dr. Elle Lee, and I’m excited to serve as this year’s first-year resident at Alpine Integrated Medicine. Originally from the Pacific Northwest, I completed my undergraduate studies in Behavioral Neuroscience at Western Washington University before moving to Portland, Oregon, where I graduated from the National University of Naturopathic Medicine (NUNM).
At NUNM, I was rigorously trained as a primary care physician, specializing in a holistic and integrative approach to health. I am thrilled to bring my expertise and enthusiasm to AIM, where I am actively accepting new patients. My medical practice is dedicated to enhancing wellness through balanced eating and appropriate physical activity, supporting each individual’s unique needs.
My clinical focus includes a broad range of conditions, particularly in the realm of neuromuscular and sports medicine. I am experienced in treating and managing:
Tendon and Muscular Sprains/Strains: Acute and chronic musculoskeletal injuries.
Bursitis: Inflammation of the fluid-filled pads that cushion your joints.
Bone Health: Prevention and management of bone density issues.
Autoimmune Diseases: Supportive care for conditions like rheumatoid arthritis.
Dysautonomia: Dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system.
Chronic Pain Syndromes: Comprehensive management of persistent pain.
Anemia: Diagnosis and treatment of various types of anemia.
Thyroid Conditions: Managing hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, and related disorders.
Migraines and Headaches: Effective strategies for relief and prevention.
Skin Conditions: Treatment for a range of dermatological issues including Acne Management.
Hypermobile Musculoskeletal Conditions: Care for issues arising from joint hypermobility.
Sleep Disorders: Strategies to improve sleep quality and treat sleep disturbances.
Anxiety and Depression: Holistic approaches to mental health care.
My approach to treatment is diverse, incorporating minor surgery, IV nutrient therapy, regenerative medicine, trigger point therapy, botanical medicine, homeopathy, nutrition, and exercise.

When I’m not in the clinic, I’m an avid adventurer, embracing the great outdoors through hiking, running, triathlons, camping, mountain biking, surfing, climbing, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing. I find joy in ending each adventure with a well-deserved snack and coffee. My home life is equally fulfilling, shared with my loyal 6-year-old husky and my partner, Kasper.
I am also in training for Botox applications and skilled in using the Skin Pen.
I look forward to partnering with you at AIM to help you achieve your health and lifestyle goals. Let’s embark on this journey together!
