It's the small habits. How you spend your mornings. How you talk to yourself. What you read and what you watch. Who you share your energy with. Who has access to you. That will change your life.
Dr. Lopez brings adventure, curiosity, determination, faith, respect, trustworthiness, and kindness to every patient relationship, treating your recovery as a partnership built one small, consistent habit at a time.
Outside the clinic, Dr. Lopez spends her time with family, hiking, paddleboarding, running, teaching, and practicing Pilates and yoga. A former collegiate cross country and track runner, she stays just as active off the clock as she encourages her patients to be.
