Dr. Sana Awan is a Naturopathic Doctor who helps patients make sense of their gut symptoms and finally find relief from issues like bloating, constipation, reflux, and IBS. At The Tummy Clinic, her work centres on Disorders of Gut–Brain Interaction (DGBIs)—conditions that affect how the gut moves and communicates with the brain.

Dr. Awan believes that care works best when it’s coordinated. She partners closely with the clinic’s dietitians and psychotherapists to make sure patients feel supported on every level. Each plan is personalized, practical, and paced to help patients rebuild comfort and confidence in daily life. Her goal is to help people understand what’s happening in their body and to create lasting change—not just short-term fixes.

Alongside her clinical work, Dr. Awan teaches at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine, where she trains future clinicians in physical examination and clinical skills. She is also an active member of the College of Naturopathic Physicians of British Columbia, the British Columbia Naturopathic Association, and the Canadian Association of Naturopathic Doctors.
