Dr. Nicole Schertell is a licensed naturopathic medical doctor who is able to diagnose and treat patients using various natural therapies such as herbal medicine, homeopathy, clinical nutrition, supplements, and certain pharmaceuticals when appropriate.

Dr. Schertell treats a wide array of conditions ranging from acute colds and ear-infections to more chronic conditions such as migraines, thyroid disorders, and conditions that have not responded well to conventional medicine. She sees both adults and children of all ages who prefer the natural approach over prescription medications. Under naturopathic care, many patients enjoy freedom from taking prescription pills on a daily basis.

Naturopaths believe that the body is wise and that each person possesses the ability to heal when given the proper support. Naturopathic doctors work to identify and treat the cause of imbalance rather than suppressing symptoms, and Dr. Schertell routinely performs physical exams and laboratory testing to assist with this process.

Dr. Schertell believes that prevention is the best medicine, and offers an advanced screening technology known as “Digital Infrared Thermography”. This cutting-edge technology is growing in popularity as a breast-cancer screening tool, offering the potential for earlier detection of breast disease than has been possible through breast self-exams, doctor examination or mammography alone. Thermography does not expose the patient to radiation and is painless. Full-body thermography scans are offered to both men and women.
