About Us

Unrushed. Informed. Home-Based.

Sunlit Mountain Landscape

Our Story

The Healing Doorstep was born from the belief that healthcare should meet you where you are: physically, emotionally, and as a whole person. Founded by a family-medicine physician and mother, our practice was created to restore the lost art of personal, relationship-based medicine.

​

We specialize in in-home care for growing families, from newborns and healing mothers to patients navigating complex, chronic health journeys. Our goal is to offer unrushed, thoughtful visits in the comfort of your own home so that you can feel seen, heard, supported, and empowered.

​

Rooted in both naturopathic principles and modern diagnostics, The Healing Doorstep offers a compassionate blend of science and soul. We honor your story, your rhythms, and your time one doorstep at a time. We meet you where you are. We are able to meet your bloodwork and prescription needs while also providing you with comprehensive preventative care and education.

Get to Know Dr. McKenna

Founder | Naturopathic Physician | Mother | Home Visit Specialist

​

I'm Dr. Lexi McKenna, a licensed naturopathic physician, dedicated family medicine provider, and proud mother and wife. I most enjoy caring to my patients where healing begins: right at your doorstep.

​

I founded The Healing Doorstep out of a deep desire to return to a more personal, connected model of care. With experience in both conventional and integrative settings, I saw the incredible power of medicine when it slows down, listens deeply, and meets patients where they are - literally and figuratively. My practice is built on the belief that your home is a sacred space, and that healing should feel safe, accessible, and whole-family-centered. For example, you shouldn't need to pack your screaming newborn and all of the accessories into the car and drive to me while you are also recovering - let me do the commuting! 

​

I specialize in:

  • Postpartum Care for Mothers and Newborns

  • Chronic Illness and Complex Diagnostics

  • Whole Family Wellness Throughout All Life Stages (including well-child checks and routine wellness visits)

​

As a mom myself, I understand the exhaustion, questions, and tender moments that come with growing a family. I also know how isolating and overwhelming it can feel to navigate a health system that doesn't always listen. My care is intentional, thoughtful, and collaborative, rooted in both evidence and intuition. We create a care plan together that feels empowering and realistic for you while also meeting your healthcare needs and goals. 

​

In recognition of my commitment to community health and innovation in patient care, I was honored to be selected for the Arizona Daily Independent's 2025 "30 Under 30" list, celebrating trailblazers shaping Arizona's future.

Whether you're a new parent, a patient with a long diagnostic journey, or someone seeking a more holistic approach, I’m here to help bring peace, clarity, and healing to your home.
