Naturopathic Doctor in Portland, OR

At Urban Wellness Group, we believe that true health is more than just the absence of disease—it’s a dynamic state of balance and vitality. Our naturopathic doctors embrace a holistic approach to healthcare, emphasizing the body’s natural ability to heal itself. By integrating time-honored natural therapies with the latest in lifestyle medicine, we help our patients address the root causes of illness, not just the symptoms.
 
We see each patient as a unique individual and develop personalized wellness plans that support mind, body, and spirit. Prevention and education are at the heart of our practice, empowering you to take charge of your long-term health.
 
While we specialize in naturopathic medicine, we also recognize the value of conventional medical science. Many of our practitioners work collaboratively with other healthcare providers to ensure you receive the most comprehensive care possible. Conventional (or allopathic) medicine often excels at rapid symptom relief and acute care through pharmaceuticals, surgery, and advanced technology. Naturopathy complements this approach by prioritizing natural, less invasive therapies and lifestyle changes that support the body’s inherent healing processes.

At Urban Wellness Group, we believe in a holistic, patient-centered approach to healthcare. Our naturopathic services are designed to support your body’s natural ability to heal itself, using evidence-based natural therapies, lifestyle modifications, and preventive care. We work with you to address both the root causes and symptoms of your health concerns, providing individualized treatment plans that fit your unique needs.
 
Many of our patients seek naturopathic care for chronic conditions such as digestive issues—including irritable bowel syndrome and acid reflux—as well as allergies, asthma, and recurrent infections. We also provide support for hormonal imbalances, including thyroid concerns and menstrual irregularities, offering alternative and integrative management strategies.
 
Naturopathic practitioners are experienced in addressing stress-related conditions, such as anxiety, mild depression, and sleep disturbances. We also help patients manage musculoskeletal complaints like arthritis, back pain, and fibromyalgia through therapies such as nutritional counseling, herbal medicine, and gentle physical treatments. Our comprehensive approach extends to cardiovascular health, high blood pressure, cholesterol management, and metabolic conditions like type 2 diabetes and obesity, always emphasizing sustainable lifestyle and dietary changes.
 
We are committed to working collaboratively with you and your other healthcare providers to ensure safe, effective, and coordinated care. While naturopathy can provide significant support alongside conventional medicine, it is not a substitute for urgent or critical medical intervention.

At Urban Wellness Group, our naturopathic doctors take a comprehensive, holistic approach to health assessments, focusing on you as a whole person, not just a collection of symptoms. The assessment process begins with a detailed initial consultation, where we listen to your story and gather information about your current concerns, past medical history, family health background, and key lifestyle factors such as nutrition, exercise, stress levels, sleep quality, and emotional well-being.

We conduct thorough physical exams to check vital signs and assess various body systems. When necessary, laboratory tests such as blood work, urine analysis, stool tests, and hormone panels may be recommended to further understand your health status.

The naturopathic approach also includes specialized naturopathic assessments:

• Evaluation of nutritional status, food sensitivities, and digestive health
• Investigation of potential toxin exposures
• Observations of subtle physical signs like changes in your nails, skin, tongue, and eyes

These findings allow us to uncover underlying imbalances that may be affecting your well-being. At Urban Wellness Group, we collaborate with you to create a personalized treatment plan that addresses the root causes of your health concerns, empowering you to actively participate in your wellness journey.

At Urban Wellness Group, we embrace the principles of naturopathic medicine to empower our patients on their journey to optimal health. Our team utilizes a comprehensive range of natural therapies, all tailored to support your body’s innate ability to heal itself.
