What is Naturopathic Medicine?
Naturopathic medicine is a system of healthcare that emphasizes the use of natural and non-invasive therapies to support the body's inherent healing abilities. Naturopathic doctors (NDs) are trained to treat patients as individuals, taking into account their physical, mental, and emotional well-being. The goal is to address the root causes of illness and promote overall wellness.
Dr. D'Angelo's approach to care
She works to educate patients on their health, provide all options available and will work with you and your Medical Doctor to gain optimal and lasting results.
