About Sutter West Bay Medical Group

Dr. Hillman is an integrative and functional medicine physician at Sutter's Pacific Heights Care Center in San Francisco. She sees adults and works on hormone imbalances along with thyroid and adrenal problems, perimenopause and menopause, food sensitivities, digestive issues and cardiometabolic health. Her own page says she has special interest or training in bio-identical hormone balancing and in specialty laboratory testing meant to reveal problems that standard testing misses. She looks for the underlying cause of symptoms rather than treating them one at a time. She has practiced meditation for 30 years in a tradition that combines mindfulness and compassion, and she offers it to patients who want it. Her panel is closed right now, and the video visits she offers are for existing patients only.
