I recently moved to Phoenix and wanted to get my health on track. I researched several Dr offices in the area and decided to make an appointment with Dr Ibarra. So happy with my decision. With Dr Ibarra’s guidance, we worked to get my blood work results in a healthy range with supplements, exercise and better nutritional choices. Thank you to Dr Ibarra!

Dr. Bennett and her team have been a lifesaver. I finally found someone who listened to me and is helping my body heal in the way it should. If you’re struggling with PCOS &/or hypothyroidism, she’s great for you. I felt hopeless until I discovered Dr. Bennett. I’m incredibly thankful for her knowledge, patience and willing to dig to find root causes and treat those, not just the symptoms.
Every appointment is based off of relevant lab work which goes to show she really cares about what’s going on in your body.
I highly recommend to anyone.

My life is changed! I had been feeling just off since the pandemic first started. I gained weight, lost all my energy, started having focus/concentration issues, and had 0 energy due to my insomnia. I first went and saw a general practitioner who wanted to prescribe me a bunch of different prescriptions to just (for lack of better explanation) mask the issues I was experiencing. I knew my issues were deeper and thankfully I found Dr. Nallely Ibarra. She took the time to truly understand my concerns, listen to my issues, and work with me to hear my symptoms and resolve the with a natural solution. Her guidance and understanding of how my body works, responds to treatment, and how to make the necessary changes to feel incredible from the inside and out, WORK! I will be forever grateful. I now have my energy back, my focus is better than ever, I am starting to lose the pandemic weight and overall I feel alive again and as cheesy as that might sound. I feel like I’m living, and not just existing. This place in the real deal.

My experience with Dr. Bennett has already been life-changing, and we’ve only just gotten started. She had a very comfortable and thorough intake conversation with me that helped give her an idea of all my concerns and then ordered lab work to analyze my nutrient, hormone and immune levels.She then prescribed 4 supplements that would help the problem areas that she found and they are ALREADY helping certain areas after just a few days. Mind you, these are problems and frustrations I have dealt with my entire LIFE – other doctors just kept checking for iron deficiencies or other problems that I just didn’t have. Dr. Bennett got to the root of what turned out to be hormonal imbalances and has me on a fast track to normalcy and a more fulfilling life. I’m excited to see the long term results and already so grateful for all she has done!

Thankful that I saw the ad for Natural Med Doc. I have literally tried everything else and seen multiple specialists to no avail. I saw Dr. Ibarra about a month ago and she prescribed supplements to help me based on my blood work. She also suggested a change in diet and exercise. I just finished my second checkup and my most of my numbers came into normal range in just a month!!! I worked hard and followed the guidance given and I’m getting results. I have much more energy I don’t have to take a nap every day either. Thank you Natural Med Doc!!!

I have an autoimmune disease that leaves me fatigued and dizzy. I began treatment with Natural Med docs in 2021 and have seen improvement. My energy level has increased from an average of 4 out of 10 to 7 out of 10. I have been able to resume a lot of my activities of daily living. Lab work is more in depth and I am medically guided according to how my body responds to treatment. My MD did a couple of thyroid tests last year and said “I don’t know why I’m checking this. I don’t know why I am checking this.” She did not know how to treat me based on the lab results anyway. This is an allopathic failure, as they do not have answers needed for Hashimoto’s and other Autoimmune diseases.I, for one, feel better, am making progress. I plan to continue with this practice, even though it is an out of pocket expense. (Along the lines of when I was paying for private insurance.)

I have been going to see Dr. Bennett for almost a year now. My first appointment with her was very good..she was very knowledgeable and explained everything. When I had my consult for my first blood draw, it was nothing short of amazing. The meeting lasted over an hour and she explained every line and what we had to do.Fast forward to today. With Dr. Bennett’s help and guidance, all of my levels from my last blood draw are in the normal or good range (there are a few that are a work in progress).I have been sleeping better, I’m losing weight (about 15 lbs), my mood is better, I’m tapering down on my antidepressants and I just have an overall better outlook.Do I recommend her………HELL YES..Don’t wait another minute, go see her. It could change your life. It did mine.

Dr. Bennett is amazing!! She really took the time to do a thorough exam and questionnaire. She actually had a conversation with me regarding issues in my body that I have been trying to manage since childhood. For the first time I found a doctor that listened and didn’t just think I was crazy or try and give me yet another pill. She was so easy to talk to and I am super excited to have her help me on this journey to a life worth living! I cannot express the gratitude I feel.

Before going to Dr. Ibarra my hormones were way out of whack, I had terrible cramping, irregular menstrual cycles, and some thyroid issues. Over the course of a few months my hormones have fallen into a more ideal range, cycles became regular, and cramping is hardly noticeable! My thyroid levels have come up which improved my energy and mood as well.For unknown reasons I started getting terrible migraines 1-2 times per week, which Dr. Ibarra helped reduce almost immediately. Initially they spaced out to every few weeks and now I know how to stop one as soon as I feel it coming on.I couldn’t recommend a better doctor or practice. Dr. Ibarra truly cares about her patients’ concerns, wants to know about your life in all aspects, and spends as much time with you as you need. I’m grateful to be her patient and strongly recommend booking an appointment with her.

Dr. Sarah C. Bennett is a very good naturopathic medical doctor.For those seeking an alternative to conventional medical care I recommend that you search for a Naturopathic Medical Doctor, NMD who has graduated from an accredited naturopathic medical school such as Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine & Health Science (SCNM), or Bastyr University.Dr. Sarah C. Bennett, who graduated from SCNM, is an excellent example of a highly qualified Naturopathic Medical Doctor. I have found that she has a remarkable understanding of health care in general and a uniquely deep knowledge of “science-based” naturopathic medicine. I would highly recommend her to care for my closest friends and family.

I’m so glad I found you!

It’s been awesome working with Dr. Ibarra on my health: I started off going to Natural Med Doc because I’m in my 30s and for years I was tired and had low energy, and just wasn’t feeling good in general. I had seen multiple primary care doctors and for the most part they would tell me I just need to eat better and exercise and leave it at that. I even was told that I’m just lazy.When I started going to Dr. Ibarra, she ordered an array of labs to get a full picture and we found that my hormones, blood sugar, and multiple other factors were all out of whack. So by the 2nd appointment I was on hormone therapy, and she had a customized plan in place to get me back on track. I’d say within 2 weeks I felt better, had more energy, less anxiety, and just a better outlook on the day. She continues to tweak the plan after each visit to work on optimizing my body chemistry and also to tailor my plan to help with any specifics I want to work on. Recently, she suggested a 14-day cleanse that I agreed to try and, to my surprise, I was able to eat real food. Because of this, I was able to stick to it, lost 16lbs in 14 days and immediately felt benefits of less bloating and better sleep. After the 14 days I had more labs done and found that my bad cholesterol and triglycerides all significantly decreased just by eating differently and doing absolutely no exercise. I’m still a work in progress but I’m confident I’ll get to where I want to be health wise with the help of Dr. Ibarra.

Are you having thyroid issues and tired of your doctor only looking at “numbers” and not considering your symptoms? Then make an appointment with Dr. Bennett now. She really listens to you and her expertise is second to none. Plus, the staff at Natural Med Doc is top notch in customer service.

Dr. Sarah Bennett is a highly educated professional. She has spent a considerable amount of time with me helping me work through multiple issues. Initially I was struggling with menopause. I was experiencing difficulty sleeping, hot flashes, anxiety, brain fog and overall lack of well being. Under Dr. Bennett’s direction (lifestyle changes and supplements) my symptoms diminished and I was able to resume a productive life. I recently returned to Dr Bennett for assistance with chronic migraine and acid reflux. I have suffered from Migraine my whole life but as I approach 60 the number of migraines per month were increasing. My life was once again a horrible struggle. Through diet change Dr Bennett has eliminated ALL of my migraines. I have gone from having 5 to 6 migraines per month to no migraines. I have been without migraine for 5 month now. I am ecstatic!!!! She is amazing. Additionally I was suffering from Chronic Acid Reflux. This has caused me a constant soar throat, ear ache, anxiety, breathing issues and overall exhaustion. I went to an ear nose and throat doctor before I approached Dr. Bennett with this issue because I was afraid it was cancer. The ENT prescribed a prescription proton-pump inhibitor that I would have to take for rest of my life. After researching the medication I found that not only did it have bad side effects but the drug would not cure the problem. It could make it worse. So I contacted Dr. Bennett once again. Through diet, lifestyle changes and supplements I am healing. Many of the Acid Reflux symptoms are starting to go away. I am sleeping better and I am not on a pharmaceutical with side effects.Thank you Dr. Bennett. You are amazing and I strongly recommend you to others. Without you I would now be taking a prescription cocktail every morning and evening.

I came to Dr. Bennett a year ago feeling like I needed a change from the traditional western medicine approach. I knew that I wasn’t feeling right and I was not content with the traditional approach of being prescribed a medication that would cause me many side effects so I sought out the care of a naturopathic doctor instead.WOW was I impressed! Dr. Bennett is a breath of fresh air and she really listens to you. She is so thorough as she orders detailed lab work and goes through it with you step by step. She makes it so that you understand how everything correlates with one another and why you might be feeling the way that you do. She listens and addresses all of your concerns as she truly wants you to feel your best. I am very grateful for her care.

I’ve known Dr. Bennett for about 3 years now so I got a chance to see her build up her practice from the start. I was amazed at how quickly she became one of the best naturopaths in Arizona, and that’s probably because what she does is amazing!I came to her because I felt like I wasn’t getting all the right nutrients in my diet. She ran some blood tests and showed me what I was missing, and what I should start eating and supplementing. Now I’ve got the peace of mind knowing I’m healthy.She takes her work seriously and does her due diligence researching the most effective information out there, to best serve you. If you read her blog articles, they’re incredibly thorough and each article has a long list of publications she references. It’s stuff you can actually trust! Definitely worth scheduling an appointment with Dr. Bennett.

Who Are Naturopathic Doctors?
Natural Med Doc is a naturopathic practice. Naturopathic Doctors attend federally accredited 4-year post-graduate level medical schools and train in the exact medical sciences and treatment options as Medical Doctors (MDs), including pharmaceuticals, imaging, labs, and more.
Naturopathic physicians often run more labs than conventional doctors. This is because naturopathic medicine treats problems and concerns based on a stricter lab reference range known as the optimal range.
Optimal ranges are evidence-based ranges that are associated with the lowest risk of disease and mortality. By taking this approach, naturopathic physicians can dig deeper into the root causes of a problem and help you find sustainable solutions.
While traditional practices are essential, the main goal of naturopathic medicine is to give an alternative for patients who are looking for a solution or lifestyle that better fits their needs.
If this sounds like you, glance at the services we offer below.
Eliminate Pain, Increase Energy, and
Resolve Your Anxiety
Our doctors have successfully helped patients with hypothyroidism, PCOS, hormonal imbalance, fibromyalgia, nutrient deficiencies, acne, weight gain, and more.
Hormones
Hormones are responsible for so many of our body’s day-to-day functions. That’s why an imbalance or substantial drop in levels can lead to a host of frustrating problems that drastically impact the quality of life.
Hormone production naturally declines with age, causing low energy, brain fog, weight gain, insomnia, and more.
Bio-identical hormone replacement is an easy and natural treatment used to prevent disease development and eliminate these unwanted symptoms. By having your levels analyzed, you can get to the bottom of your symptoms and begin treatment right away.

> What is Cortisol? Why Does it Matter? Everything You Need to Know
Thyroid Management
Do you have low energy, weight gain, brain fog? If your answer is yes to any of these, come in to have your thyroid function checked. You may have hypothyroidism (or sub-clinical hypothyroidism) contributing to these symptoms.
At Natural Med Doc, we run a comprehensive thyroid panel to assess your thyroid function to develop your individualized plan accurately.
Treatments include a combination of medications, nutritional protocols, and research-supported herbal and nutrient therapies. Each protocol is developed specifically for your case.

Nutrition & Weight Loss
There is a reason that the weight loss industry is a multi-billion dollar part of the economy. So many people pour time, money, and resources into achieving or maintaining their ideal weight, and sometimes that still isn’t enough to make a difference.
This could be due to biological levels out of your control. Getting to the root of your stubborn weight problems is vital!
Discuss your nutrition needs based on comprehensive lab values, then be guided through one of our naturopathic weight loss programs.
Lose up to 20 lbs (or even more) in 1 month!
Learn more regarding weight loss by clicking the links below.
Biohacking
Wondering if your hormones are imbalanced? Are you tired of feeling tired? Thinking you may have a vitamin deficiency? All this and more can be determined by simple blood work.
Draw your blood, order labs, and use data to make positive changes to your lifestyle, nutrition, and more. By working from the foundations up, you will get to the root of the problem and enact sustainable change.
Increase your energy to levels you never thought were possible. Finally, tackle that stubborn weight loss, and get to the bottom of your symptoms – for real. Live longer & be happier.
Learn more regarding biohacking by clicking the links below.
Type 2 Diabetes
Almost 1 in 10 Americans have Type 2 Diabetes, and it’s far from easy. Doctors’ appointments, medication, and traditional treatments can also run up quite a tab.
Take a holistic approach to reverse your diabetes. Naturopathic methods can achieve stabilized blood glucose and cholesterol levels as effectively as traditional ones. Along the way, we will also work towards healthy body weight and address co-morbid diseases. Together, we will develop a sustainable lifestyle to maintain results.
Treatments include nutritional protocols, lifestyle reform, hormone regulation, and research-based herbal and nutrient therapies.

Autoimmunity
Our body receives all of its necessary nutrients and care directly from our diet and lifestyle. It’s no wonder that addressing this area can cause so much to change.
Our modern diet and lifestyle are not conducive for optimal health. In western countries, rates of autoimmunity continue to rise.
Why does this matter? Research has shown that in rats, diet significantly impacts inflammatory autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriatic arthritis, Sjogren’s disease, and more.
At Natural Med Doc we utilize, nutritional protocols, lifestyle reform, research-supported herbal and nutrient therapy, removal of environmental triggers, and treatment of infectious aggravation. Improve symptoms and decrease disease activity with naturopathic medical care.

Mental Health
As we progress as a society, more and more people realize that mental and emotional help ties into physical health. They work together and impact each other to create a healthier you.
Anxiety and depression are symptoms of a more significant underlying imbalance in the body yet are often addressed as separate diagnoses.
Natural Med Doc understands that all body functions are connected, so we strive to find the root cause of mood imbalances.
We commonly find that hormonal imbalance, neurotransmitter imbalances, nutrition problems, nutrient deficiencies, and inflammation can help stabilize mood dramatically.
Schedule today to find a more natural, holistic approach to addressing your mental and emotional health.

PCOS
Hormonal concerns affect millions of men and women worldwide.
PCOS, or polycystic ovarian syndrome, is the most common hormonal disorder in young women. It affects at least 116 million women worldwide!
PCOS is an incredibly emotional diagnosis for many women… feeling as though you have been sentenced to a lifelong battle with weight gain, insulin resistance, acne, hair loss, and infertility.
Our doctors have successfully reversed PCOS for women across the Phoenix valley.

Dr. Bennett and her team have been a lifesaver. I finally found someone who listened to me and is helping my body heal in the way it should. If you’re struggling with PCOS &/or hypothyroidism, she’s great for you. I felt hopeless until I discovered Dr. Bennett. I’m incredibly thankful for her knowledge, patience and willing to dig to find root causes and treat those, not just the symptoms.
Every appointment is based off of relevant lab work which goes to show she really cares about what’s going on in your body.
I highly recommend to anyone.

My life is changed! I had been feeling just off since the pandemic first started. I gained weight, lost all my energy, started having focus/concentration issues, and had 0 energy due to my insomnia. I first went and saw a general practitioner who wanted to prescribe me a bunch of different prescriptions to just (for lack of better explanation) mask the issues I was experiencing. I knew my issues were deeper and thankfully I found Dr. Nallely Ibarra. She took the time to truly understand my concerns, listen to my issues, and work with me to hear my symptoms and resolve the with a natural solution. Her guidance and understanding of how my body works, responds to treatment, and how to make the necessary changes to feel incredible from the inside and out, WORK! I will be forever grateful. I now have my energy back, my focus is better than ever, I am starting to lose the pandemic weight and overall I feel alive again and as cheesy as that might sound. I feel like I’m living, and not just existing. This place in the real deal.

My experience with Dr. Bennett has already been life-changing, and we’ve only just gotten started. She had a very comfortable and thorough intake conversation with me that helped give her an idea of all my concerns and then ordered lab work to analyze my nutrient, hormone and immune levels.She then prescribed 4 supplements that would help the problem areas that she found and they are ALREADY helping certain areas after just a few days. Mind you, these are problems and frustrations I have dealt with my entire LIFE – other doctors just kept checking for iron deficiencies or other problems that I just didn’t have. Dr. Bennett got to the root of what turned out to be hormonal imbalances and has me on a fast track to normalcy and a more fulfilling life. I’m excited to see the long term results and already so grateful for all she has done!

Thankful that I saw the ad for Natural Med Doc. I have literally tried everything else and seen multiple specialists to no avail. I saw Dr. Ibarra about a month ago and she prescribed supplements to help me based on my blood work. She also suggested a change in diet and exercise. I just finished my second checkup and my most of my numbers came into normal range in just a month!!! I worked hard and followed the guidance given and I’m getting results. I have much more energy I don’t have to take a nap every day either. Thank you Natural Med Doc!!!

I have an autoimmune disease that leaves me fatigued and dizzy. I began treatment with Natural Med docs in 2021 and have seen improvement. My energy level has increased from an average of 4 out of 10 to 7 out of 10. I have been able to resume a lot of my activities of daily living. Lab work is more in depth and I am medically guided according to how my body responds to treatment. My MD did a couple of thyroid tests last year and said “I don’t know why I’m checking this. I don’t know why I am checking this.” She did not know how to treat me based on the lab results anyway. This is an allopathic failure, as they do not have answers needed for Hashimoto’s and other Autoimmune diseases.I, for one, feel better, am making progress. I plan to continue with this practice, even though it is an out of pocket expense. (Along the lines of when I was paying for private insurance.)

I have been going to see Dr. Bennett for almost a year now. My first appointment with her was very good..she was very knowledgeable and explained everything. When I had my consult for my first blood draw, it was nothing short of amazing. The meeting lasted over an hour and she explained every line and what we had to do.Fast forward to today. With Dr. Bennett’s help and guidance, all of my levels from my last blood draw are in the normal or good range (there are a few that are a work in progress).I have been sleeping better, I’m losing weight (about 15 lbs), my mood is better, I’m tapering down on my antidepressants and I just have an overall better outlook.Do I recommend her………HELL YES..Don’t wait another minute, go see her. It could change your life. It did mine.

I went to get blood drawn and I was feeling really bad from the fasting and especially the no coffee but Marily did a wonderful job. I did not feel a thing. I have had my share of bad blood draw before and this one was the best to date. Looking forward to work with Dr Ibarra towards good health. I need it.

Dr. Bennett is amazing!! She really took the time to do a thorough exam and questionnaire. She actually had a conversation with me regarding issues in my body that I have been trying to manage since childhood. For the first time I found a doctor that listened and didn’t just think I was crazy or try and give me yet another pill. She was so easy to talk to and I am super excited to have her help me on this journey to a life worth living! I cannot express the gratitude I feel.

Before going to Dr. Ibarra my hormones were way out of whack, I had terrible cramping, irregular menstrual cycles, and some thyroid issues. Over the course of a few months my hormones have fallen into a more ideal range, cycles became regular, and cramping is hardly noticeable! My thyroid levels have come up which improved my energy and mood as well.For unknown reasons I started getting terrible migraines 1-2 times per week, which Dr. Ibarra helped reduce almost immediately. Initially they spaced out to every few weeks and now I know how to stop one as soon as I feel it coming on.I couldn’t recommend a better doctor or practice. Dr. Ibarra truly cares about her patients’ concerns, wants to know about your life in all aspects, and spends as much time with you as you need. I’m grateful to be her patient and strongly recommend booking an appointment with her.

Dr. Sarah C. Bennett is a very good naturopathic medical doctor.For those seeking an alternative to conventional medical care I recommend that you search for a Naturopathic Medical Doctor, NMD who has graduated from an accredited naturopathic medical school such as Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine & Health Science (SCNM), or Bastyr University.Dr. Sarah C. Bennett, who graduated from SCNM, is an excellent example of a highly qualified Naturopathic Medical Doctor. I have found that she has a remarkable understanding of health care in general and a uniquely deep knowledge of “science-based” naturopathic medicine. I would highly recommend her to care for my closest friends and family.

She listened came up with a plan and I have been feeling great ever since. I strongly recommend coming to see her, she will always see you and not have a PA or NP come in. Thanks again Dr. Bennett! I’m so glad I found you!

It’s been awesome working with Dr. Ibarra on my health: I started off going to Natural Med Doc because I’m in my 30s and for years I was tired and had low energy, and just wasn’t feeling good in general. I had seen multiple primary care doctors and for the most part they would tell me I just need to eat better and exercise and leave it at that. I even was told that I’m just lazy.When I started going to Dr. Ibarra, she ordered an array of labs to get a full picture and we found that my hormones, blood sugar, and multiple other factors were all out of whack. So by the 2nd appointment I was on hormone therapy, and she had a customized plan in place to get me back on track. I’d say within 2 weeks I felt better, had more energy, less anxiety, and just a better outlook on the day. She continues to tweak the plan after each visit to work on optimizing my body chemistry and also to tailor my plan to help with any specifics I want to work on. Recently, she suggested a 14-day cleanse that I agreed to try and, to my surprise, I was able to eat real food. Because of this, I was able to stick to it, lost 16lbs in 14 days and immediately felt benefits of less bloating and better sleep. After the 14 days I had more labs done and found that my bad cholesterol and triglycerides all significantly decreased just by eating differently and doing absolutely no exercise. I’m still a work in progress but I’m confident I’ll get to where I want to be health wise with the help of Dr. Ibarra.

Dr. Bennett is amazing. She has helped me start to feel energetic and awake again. No more brain fog for me. Are you having thyroid issues and tired of your doctor only looking at “numbers” and not considering your symptoms? Then make an appointment with Dr. Bennett now. She really listens to you and her expertise is second to none. Plus, the staff at Natural Med Doc is top notch in customer service.

Dr. Sarah Bennett is a highly educated professional. She has spent a considerable amount of time with me helping me work through multiple issues. Initially I was struggling with menopause. I was experiencing difficulty sleeping, hot flashes, anxiety, brain fog and overall lack of well being. Under Dr. Bennett’s direction (lifestyle changes and supplements) my symptoms diminished and I was able to resume a productive life. I recently returned to Dr Bennett for assistance with chronic migraine and acid reflux. I have suffered from Migraine my whole life but as I approach 60 the number of migraines per month were increasing. My life was once again a horrible struggle. Through diet change Dr Bennett has eliminated ALL of my migraines. I have gone from having 5 to 6 migraines per month to no migraines. I have been without migraine for 5 month now. I am ecstatic!!!! She is amazing. Additionally I was suffering from Chronic Acid Reflux. This has caused me a constant soar throat, ear ache, anxiety, breathing issues and overall exhaustion. I went to an ear nose and throat doctor before I approached Dr. Bennett with this issue because I was afraid it was cancer. The ENT prescribed a prescription proton-pump inhibitor that I would have to take for rest of my life. After researching the medication I found that not only did it have bad side effects but the drug would not cure the problem. It could make it worse. So I contacted Dr. Bennett once again. Through diet, lifestyle changes and supplements I am healing. Many of the Acid Reflux symptoms are starting to go away. I am sleeping better and I am not on a pharmaceutical with side effects.Thank you Dr. Bennett. You are amazing and I strongly recommend you to others. Without you I would now be taking a prescription cocktail every morning and evening.

I came to Dr. Bennett a year ago feeling like I needed a change from the traditional western medicine approach. I knew that I wasn’t feeling right and I was not content with the traditional approach of being prescribed a medication that would cause me many side effects so I sought out the care of a naturopathic doctor instead.WOW was I impressed! Dr. Bennett is a breath of fresh air and she really listens to you. She is so thorough as she orders detailed lab work and goes through it with you step by step. She makes it so that you understand how everything correlates with one another and why you might be feeling the way that you do. She listens and addresses all of your concerns as she truly wants you to feel your best. I am very grateful for her care.

I’ve known Dr. Bennett for about 3 years now so I got a chance to see her build up her practice from the start. I was amazed at how quickly she became one of the best naturopaths in Arizona, and that’s probably because what she does is amazing!I came to her because I felt like I wasn’t getting all the right nutrients in my diet. She ran some blood tests and showed me what I was missing, and what I should start eating and supplementing. Now I’ve got the peace of mind knowing I’m healthy.She takes her work seriously and does her due diligence researching the most effective information out there, to best serve you. If you read her blog articles, they’re incredibly thorough and each article has a long list of publications she references. It’s stuff you can actually trust! Definitely worth scheduling an appointment with Dr. Bennett.

Unfortunately, we do not know any other naturopathic doctors in Arizona that take insurance and deliver the same quality of care we do. We are a cash-based medical practice that goes above and beyond for each patient. This has allowed us to get better results and solve unwanted health symptoms that many patients have been dealing with for decades. Cost varies based on the patient’s needs.

Naturopathic Medical Doctors (NMDs) have training in conventional medicine and natural therapeutics. Naturopathic Doctors attend federally-accredited 4-year post-graduate level medical schools and are trained in the same medical sciences and treatment options as Medical Doctors (MDs). This includes pharmaceuticals, imaging, labs, and so on.
Naturopathic physicians are often known to run more labs than conventional doctors. This is because naturopathic medicine treats problems and concerns based on a stricter lab reference range known as the optimal range.
This optimal range is based on research showing improvement not only in symptoms but in disease prevention in the first place. By taking this approach, naturopathic physicians are able to dig deeper to the root causes of a problem and help you find sustainable solutions.
The human body is very complex. Hence why our traditional cookie cutter medical system leaves millions of individuals with health concerns.
This is also most likely why you are reaching out to us today.
