Why you should have a physical exam

February 21, 2014 By //  by Whitney Young, ND

There seems to be a trend forming amongst some MD’s.  They say that unless you have an indication of a disease, a physical exam is not necessary until the age of 40.

So one of my patients had been off anti depressants for some time and she was feeling like her energy was low and she just wasn’t quite ‘right’.  When she asked her MD for some blood work and a physical he said that it wasn’t needed until she was 40.  He would happily give her a new script for her depression as that was likely why she was feeling low.

While my patient is quite comfortable with the idea that she may need anti-depressants again, she wanted to be sure that it wasn’t something else first, so she came to see me.

After I did a physical exam and routine blood work based on her history (at LifeLabs), we discovered that she is anemic, has low vitamin D status and has low testosterone levels.

This is an example of where naturopathic doctors can fill in the holes our health care system has.

Why IV therapy?

May 9, 2012 By //  by Whitney Young, ND

I’ve been doing IV therapy for a number of months now with great success.

Here we have a mini-video on IV treatments, to see it click here: Whitney discussing IV Therapy

I have been seeing quite a few patients with a number of disorder who are all benefiting from IV vitamin and nutrient therapy. They include people with fatigue, Crohn’s, collitis, migraines and anemia.

Please give us a call or send a message if you would like more information about IV Therapy.
