The Light From Within

Inspired by the Hebrew meaning "my light" or "gift of light". This reflects our belief that health from within can show that special glow on the outside. It is the energy you bring to your day, the confidence in your smile, and the way you show up for the people and moments that matter most.

Through personalized functional medicine and aesthetics, we're here to support healthier skin, steadier energy, and your own radiance shining a little brighter.

Meet Leora Place’s Medical Aesthetics & Functional Medicine Practitioner

Emily Mersman, PA-C

Emily brings more than 20 years of experience in medicine, providing you care with a thoughtful and personalized approach.

Her passion for functional medicine was born from her own health journey. After navigating long COVID and Lyme disease, Emily experienced firsthand the frustration of searching for answers. Working alongside an integrative physician opened her eyes to a more comprehensive approach to health and inspired a new chapter in her career.

Today, she brings her two passions together at Leora Place, combining functional medicine and aesthetics to help patients feel heard and supported while creating personalized treatment plans. She brings a unique combination of clinical expertise, compassion, and personal perspective to the practice.
