Wendy Weber, ND, PhD, MPH
Provider, Naturopathic Medicine

Bastyr Center for Natural Health is a great option for people seeking comprehensive health care, because patients have multiple practitioners working hard on their cases. I often tell patients that they receive more thorough physical exams at our teaching clinic than they can receive anywhere else.

Bastyr’s faculty supervisors are some of the best natural health care professionals in the country. The other Team Care practitioners are fourth-year medical students who are bright, knowledgeable and enthusiastic about helping patients. All of their treatment plans are reviewed and approved by the supervisors.

I have been so impressed with the success of natural medicine. One woman I treated was suffering from ongoing abdominal pain, and we determined that she had food allergies. Between that and healing her GI tract with herbs, we were able to resolve her condition successfully. I think one of the reasons natural medicine can be so effective is that foods are a major part of the disease process for many individuals. A lot of what ails society today is based on what we consume, so dietary factors are one of the first areas we evaluate as naturopathic physicians. Additionally, patients with chronic conditions may experience long-term side effects from conventional treatments, so they turn to a natural approach to find other options that are healthier for them.

I am a completely different person because of my work at Bastyr Center for Natural Health, where I oversee the specialty services in ADD/ADHD and conduct research on conditions such as the common cold and ADHD. I teach patients how to make healthier choices, and any time you have the opportunity to do that, you are changing lives.
