Male Naturopaths near Portland, OR

Integrative Cancer Specialist. I am a Naturopathic Physician with over 21 years of practice experience. From 2009 to Aug 2017 I practiced along-side medical oncologists at Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA) providing safe integrative support. Integrative oncology brings together the best of conventional and holistic medicine to help you fight your cancer. At Sage Cancer Care, I continue to focus on integrative oncology and see adult patients fighting all cancer types.

I develop intensive and comprehensive treatment programs for individuals diagnosed with all types and stages of cancer. I utilize IV therapies such as dichloroacetate (DCA), vitamin C, lipoic acid, DMSO and other nutrients, in addition to ultraviolet blood irradiation (UVBI). I am also trained in the Kelley Enzyme Protocol, which utilizes very high dose pancreatic enzymes. In addition to these therapies all patients are on specific dietary, detoxification and stress management programs.

As a Naturopathic and Chinese medicine physician, I focus on treating the underlying cause of disease often resulting in "miraculous" cures to even the most complicated health disorders. Using the holistic healing principles of both Nature Cure (Naturopathic) and the ancient system of Chinese medicine I individualize treatments to meet your needs and not the disease. This is where the magic happens. Within my holistic practice, I specialize in the treatment of thyroid disorders.

I primarily treat chronic pain and musculoskeletal injuries. My belief is that these are often multi-faceted. Injuries can ultimately be a result of structural or movement imbalances that go beyond a simple slip and fall. Pain itself can have multiple causes; there are different "types" of pain. As such, patients often need a diverse approach and my goal is to help guide this process.

While naturopathic doctors certainly recognize the importance of diagnosis, we are committed to looking beyond the label of a disease, and identifying its causal mechanisms. So, when it comes to mental or physical health, my goal is to treat the patient - not the just the DSM or the ICD10 code. This means engaging in a thorough and individualized assessment of the psychological, biochemical, and environmental factors that interact to produce emotional and bodily suffering. As the set of causes for each person's symptoms is unique, so must be the treatment.

If you are actively seeking to improve your health, prefer a holistic integrated approach, want to explore alternative treatment options and need a place where you can feel both comfortable and confident we would love to work with you! We treat a wide variety of conditions and find the most important factor in our success is your commitment and ours!
