For Healthcare Professionals

Dr. Andi Chatburn brings a unique and powerful combination of conventional medical expertise and ceremonial wisdom to end-of-life care.

With more than a decade and a half of experience as both a physician and bioethicist, they offer personalized and in-home support that bridges traditional medicine with integrative practices.

Dr. Chatburn’s services are not a substitute for hospice.

They are at their best when working along side or as an add-on to hospice services.

Dr. Chatburn specializes in supporting individuals who may feel marginalized by or hesitant about conventional medical systems, including LGBTQIA+ and individuals in poly and kink or leather families and those seeking integrative approaches to care. Their practice is particularly valuable for patients who:

• Desire to maintain autonomy and authenticity in their healthcare journey

• Seek to integrate multiple healing and wholeing traditions

• Long for support in creating meaningful ceremonies or rituals around death and dying

• Need additional assistance navigating both the medical and spiritual aspects of end-of-life care

Based in the San Francisco Bay Area with availability to travel throughout Northern California and the Central Valley, Dr. Chatburn helps transform end-of-life care from a series of medical decisions into a meaningful rite of passage that honors each person's unique journey. Their approach often results in reduced existential distress and improved quality of life for both patients and their loved ones.

You may contact Dr. Chatburn directly or patients can schedule an initial information session to explore working with Dr. Chatburn here. They offer both in-person and virtual consultations, often for the visits and services hospice may not be able to provide.
