Hello, I’m Dr. Alicia Miller, Naturopathic Physician specializing in Functional Medicine.   

Chicago-native, completed undergraduate BS of Psychology from Elmhurst College.  

Graduated Naturopathic Medical School in December 2006 from Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine in Tempe, AZ. 

After I finished my Naturopathic schooling, I returned back to Chicago to be with family and start my own.  

While having my own practice and working for a MD, I was adjunct faculty at NUHS (National University of Health Sciences) in Lombard, IL for over 8 years instructing Naturopathic and Chiropractic students.  

We knew at some point we were going to return to AZ where I had been maintaining my Naturopathic medical license.  

We moved to Las Vegas first so I could help take care of my mom for a few years.  

We moved to Tucson in 2019 and I joined the team at Tumbleweeds, then 2020 happened.  

2020 was a very stressful year, but the pandemic has taught us to be vigilant about our mental and physical health.  

It reminded me to take more nature breaks and listen to my body.  

I am grateful to be a part of Tumbleweeds Health Center, providing medical expertise and supporting the cannabis community!

Dr. Shabez has completed the majority of the course work required for a Masters degree in Oriental Medicine from Phoenix Institute of Herbal Medicine and Acupuncture.

Prior to becoming a Naturopathic Physician Dr. Shabez served in the U. S. Army as a First Lieutenant, serving in

both the 82nd Airborne, Ft. Bragg, NC and the First Infantry Forward in Germany.

Dr. Shabez is a Wilderness Emergency Medical Technician and Nationally Registered Emergency Medical Technician. He is an American Red Cross Certified CPR, AED and First Aid Instructor.

Dr. Shabez’s approach to medicine is to help patients understand the interconnectedness of each of the body’s organ systems. Illnesses do not occur in isolation affecting only one organ system. 

Understanding the relationships between each system and bringing balance to the dysfunctions is key to regaining optimal health. 

Dr. Shabez utilizes a variety of treatment modalities in an effort to find the optimal combination of therapies that help an individual bring balance to their body.
