Messages From Dr. Yerby

Changing 'Healthcare'
to 'Health Caring'...

Although I am trained and licenced as a naturopathic medical doctor, most people also ask me to provide for them second opinions, suggest alternative choices, or help them prioritize or manage the prescribed treatments they are receiving from their medical doctors. These are people who are turning to me who feel their preferred path to health is not complete, correct, or being supported within conventional healthcare.

Beware of NDs Not
Medically-Trained

Finding a medically-trained naturopathic physician in North Carolina can be difficult, as there are many mail-order trained NDs in this state. This is because the state licensing law for NDs in North Carolina has not passed yet in the state legislature. Until that happens, anyone can call themselves a naturopathic doctor without being legally challenged on it.

Reading 'lab work patterns'
can predict developing
health concerns.

Dr. Yerby is trained in identifying early signs of chronic conditions by reading existing lab work from a preventative point of view. This is important if one prefers to avoid disease, not just be treated as conventional medicine would once lab values have moved into the abnormal out-of-range references.

Messages From Dr. Yerby

"Dr. Yerby, I just want you to know how very much I appreciate all you have done for me in the years I have been seeing you. You have made such a big difference in my life. Your insight and expertise in your medical field of Naturopathy has made my health journey so much better. You help me much more than the regular doctors. You help and educate me at every step in this health journey. You will never know how valuable you are to me. I count on you for your knowledge and experience to tell me the truth and the facts about what is going on with me. Another thing that makes a difference is that you truly care about me and your other patients. That is so special because you don't find many doctors that care about their patients like you do. So, on behalf of myself and your other patients we say thank you from the bottom of our hearts."
