Personal Statement

“As a physician dedicated to the principles of natural medicine I recognize within everyone the unique ability of self-healing. Give the body a chance to heal and it can. Provide it with the necessary nutrients and prevent diseases from developing. Foster the human spirit with hope and love and miracles can happen. Too much of medicine has become technological with its “magic bullet” therapies and love affair with synthetic drugs. Of course, some of these approaches have greatly improved our ability to treat serious diseases, save lives, and perform miracles of medicine that were unimaginable 50-100 years ago. No doubt we live in an age of incredible achievement. However, everything has its place, and the many different forms of therapy that exist all have incredible value.

It is important for people to realize that they have the ability to heal, but they also have a personal responsibility in taking care of themselves. No one person or one medicine, whether herbal, homeopathic, nutritional, or pharmaceutical can do it all for them. There are no guarantees. Live a good life. Be kind to yourself and others, eat wholesome and healthy food, exercise and maintain a calm mind and a sense of humor. These recommendations will serve you well.”

Personal Statement

“I became a Naturopathic Physician because I felt that naturopathic medicine provided a more comprehensive approach to health care and natural medicine than any other alternative medical field. I felt that it was important to attend a school that provided an education in the basic medical sciences. With all of the information available to the public through books and the internet, an education in the medical sciences can help one to distinguish between what is valid and sound advice and what is not.

The path to becoming a Naturopathic Physician was a difficult one. There were many hours of intense study as is the case with any medical education. However, I knew that this was the path for me. With all of the challenges, I never wavered in that belief. Good nutrition, exercise, and a healthy lifestyle have always been a part of my life and I have had a strong desire to help others who are searching for ways to improve their health. When I discovered Naturopathic Medicine, I knew that I had found a profession that was perfect for me and my interest in helping others to become well. I love what I do and know that Naturopathic Medicine has much to offer those who are fortunate enough to discover it.”
