Our Approach

We believe the conventional medical system is broken. It's not for us, and if you're here, you're looking for more too.

This is our vision.

1. Care about people.
2. Spend enough time with them to really get to know them.
3. Restore health - get stuff working right.
4. Start with diet, lifestyle and natural therapies. Move on to drugs only if necessary.
5. Never give up.

Care about people
It's not about high-tech -- the latest machines, tests, scans or gizmos -- it's about people. We believe medicine should be focused on improving lives and that means human connections and caring about patients like people.

Spend enough time with people to get to know them thoroughly
The standard 8-15-20 minute office visits just won't cut it. People new to Naturopathic medicine are sometimes stunned that we spend 45 minutes or more talking and asking questions, then do a physical exam, order lab work, and craft a treatment plan. If we want to really help you and figure out what is going on, we have to get to know you and relationships take time.

Restore health & Start with natural therapies
Regular doctors try to fix you, like a mechanic fixes a car. Surgery repairs, replaces or takes out broken “parts”. Most prescription drugs force different biochemical pathways to over or under perform.

We don't do that. Our goal is to restore your health, that's why we use natural therapies like nutrition, lifestyle changes, vitamins, minerals, and herbal medicines. These therapies modulate instead of force, helping the body to return to health.

Never give up
Most of our patients have seen 4-10 doctors before they come to us and aren't sure if they can be helped. There is always a reason for what is going on, but it's not always easy to figure out. We are constantly learning, always trying to get better. The average doctor attends about 25-50 hours of continuing education a year. Our goal is to do between 100-200 hours a year.

If our approach meshes with yours, we'd love to meet you. Why don't you...
