My Background and Approach
I'm Dr. Daniel Roa, a double board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health and Adult/Geriatric Nurse Practitioner with over two decades in healthcare. I have experience as medical director of Multnomah County Crisis. With extensive experience in Substance Use Disorder and chemical dependency, I offer nuanced and effective strategies for addiction treatment. I lead with a commitment to trans-competent care, ensuring sensitive and informed treatment for transgender clients. My background includes specialized work at Monte Nido for eating disorders, reflecting my deep understanding of the complexities surrounding such conditions. My approach is always tailored and empathetic, aiming to treat the whole person, not just the symptoms. Whether it's hormone therapy or aesthetic medicine, my practice is grounded in the latest research and a heartfelt dedication to patient well-being.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As a queer person of color, my personal journey deeply informs my practice. I believe in healthcare that sees and supports every facet of an individual's identity. This conviction drives my work, where I advocate for equitable, compassionate care regardless of one's background. I understand firsthand the nuances of navigating healthcare spaces that often feel unwelcoming or uninformed. My mission is to dismantle these barriers, providing care that is not only competent but also celebrates the diversity of the human experience. In my roles, from medical directorship to direct patient care, I integrate these values, striving to create a healthcare environment where everyone, especially those from marginalized communities, can feel seen, heard, and respected.
