6-15-09

I think this Diet is wonderful... I feel I have been successful in so many ways. After a couple years of managing to put about 30 lbs. back on through some stressful events going on that did not let me have time to take care of my body and even sometimes my mind. Dr. Smith and his staff have help me get this all back under control....

...This has been the easiest Diet I have ever been on with the best results... I thank you all for developing this Diet that has helped me Jump Start my road back to a more healthy Life Style

Sincerely in Much Better Health...-MG

I am a 55 year old woman who did the HCG diet with Dr. Smith. I never had a weight problem growing up, but after 7 children and a hysterectomy, the pounds kept creeping on...I am so glad that I was referred to Dr. Smith. His method of following the HCG diet was much better! There was so much support and guidance...and I know this was a healthier alternative to only using the HCG...I would highly recommend this plan and Dr. Smith to anyone for weight loss — in fact I have passed out many flyers to friends who are interested!

What is Naturopathic Medicine?
Founded upon a holistic philosophy, naturopathic medicine combines safe and effective traditional therapies with the most current advances in modern medicine. Naturopathic medicine is appropriate for the management of a broad range of health conditions affecting all people of all ages.

Naturopathic physicians (NDs) are the highest trained practitioners in the broadest scope of naturopathic medical modalities. In addition to the basic medical sciences and conventional diagnostics, naturopathic education includes therapeutic nutrition, botanical medicine, homeopathy, natural childbirth, classical Chinese medicine, hydrotherapy, naturopathic manipulative therapy, pharmacology and minor surgery.

Definition of Naturopathic Medicine:
Naturopathic medicine is a distinct system of primary health care - an art, science, philosophy and practice of diagnosis, treatment and prevention of illness. Naturopathic medicine is distinguished by the principles which underlie and determine its practice. These principles are based upon the objective observation of the nature of health and disease, and are continually reexamined in the light of scientific advances. Methods used are consistent with these principles and are chosen upon the basis of patient individuality. Naturopathic physicians are primary health care practitioners, whose diverse techniques include modern and traditional, scientific and empirical methods.
