After completing her residency in naturopathic medicine at the Alaska Center for Natural Medicine (Fairbanks, AK), Dr. Nielsen continued her private practice there before relocating to Burlington, VT in the fall of 2013.
While at the Vermont Naturopathic Clinic PLC (South Burlington, VT) from 2013-2015, Dr. Nielsen was a primary care provider for adult women.
