Dr. Lena Suhaila, ND, FABNO
BOARD-CERTIFIED NATUROPATHIC ONCOLOGIST
INTEGRATIVE ONCOLOGY & METABOLIC CANCER CARE
Cancer care is often focused primarily on the tumor. Integrative oncology looks more broadly at the conditions within the body that influence how cancer develops, how treatment is tolerated, how recovery unfolds, and how long-term health is supported afterward.
Dr. Suhaila is a Fellow of the American Board of Naturopathic Oncology, with nearly twenty years of experience in integrative and metabolic oncology. She previously served on the medical staff at Cancer Treatment Centers of America, now City of Hope.
Her clinical work focuses on metabolism, immune function, inflammation, nervous system health, the tumor microenvironment, and the biologic terrain influencing cancer outcomes.
If you are reading this, you may have recently received a diagnosis that changed the direction of your life. You may be trying to understand how to move through treatment with greater clarity and support. Or you may be one of the many people beginning to ask deeper questions about prevention, recurrence, recovery, and the conditions within the body that influence long-term health.
Integrative oncology looks beyond the tumor alone. It considers the broader physiologic terrain in which cancer develops and progresses: metabolism, inflammation, immune function, mitochondrial health, environmental exposures, hormonal signaling, nervous system regulation, sleep, nutrition, and the cumulative effects of long-term stress on the body.
The question is not only how to treat the cancer. It is also how to support the body that is living through it.

The Deeper Healing
Healing rarely stops at the physical level
The body is a portal. Every symptom, every pattern, every place of pain is an invitation to go deeper. Healing is more than symptom relief. It is the courage to look at every part of yourself, including the parts you have hidden or forgotten, and say: you belong here too. It is the work of reintegration. Of making peace with your full self. Of returning to a wholeness that was never truly lost, only buried.
"Thank you for bringing me to higher state of health. Because of all the changes that you've helped me to make, I feel so much better now than I did before I was diagnosed with lymphoma. I never thought that could be possible."
JA Berkley, California
"Dr Lena helped save my life. I don't want to sound melodramatic, but it's how I feel. I really wanted a blend of holistic and Western medicine to support me through treatment for triple negative breast cancer- and Dr Lena was the perfect choice. She worked seamlessly with my team at UCSF, even exchanging emails with my oncologist. She is incredibly knowledgable, going over my blood tests and suggesting supplements to support my immune system and keep side-effects at bay."

"Dr. Suhaila is a light that was brought into my life in a great time of darkness. I appreciate her knowledge, patience, and optimism. She helped keep me safe and calm as I went through treatment for stage IV ovarian cancer."
