About the event

Megan has been practicing as a general surgeon in the Rogue Valley since 2013 and predominantly takes care of people with cancer. She also has a Master's in Public health which helped her to learn the important difference between taking care of a population versus taking care of an individual. She is a prescriber for Oregon's Death with Dignity and takes great honor in helping those that have come to terms with their death take control over their last moments. After settling into her career, she felt that she was doing a good job taking care of cancer, but was still inadequate in taking care of the person as a whole. When she learned about the potential of psychedelic assisted therapy that could benefit people with cancer and terminal illness as well as a multitude of other mental health disorders, she felt excited that there were avenues to help people cope with many of the hardships of life. She completed the California Institute of Integral Studies' Certificate in Psychedelics and Research in 2021 and has enjoyed immersing herself into a community that treats mental and physical health from a different, but complementary perspective to Western healthcare. She is using her clinical knowledge, her knowledge of public health, and her newfound passion in psychedelics to advocate and educate the local community. Her goal is that our community will have accessible, affordable psychedelic therapy available to those who need it.
