Judy Neall, N.D.
Dr. Neall graduated Magna Cum Laude from Oregon State University in Corvallis, OR with a B.S. in Public Health (Health Promotion/Education and Community Health) along with a minor in Nutrition. She then went on to receive her doctorate from the National College of Naturopathic Medicine in Portland. Following graduation, she completed an integrative medicine residency in Women's Health at a women's health clinic in Portland in conjunction with the National College of Naturopathic Medicine. This residency was the first of it's kind - combining both conventional medical training with naturopathic specialty training.
As the owner of Natural Choices, Dr. Neall brings her love of medicine and healing to both her management of the clinic and her private practice. She believes whole-heartedly in the innate power of healing within each human being, and feels her primary goal with patients is to help uncover the obstacles to cure and provide education and guidance in that process. Her work involves discovering, through questioning, history, examination, laboratory work and possibly other diagnostic procedures, the underlying cause of illness, discomfort, imbalance and/or disease. Dr. Neall looks at all aspects of illness - physical, mental, emotional and spiritual - and all are taken into consideration in preparation of individual treatment recommendations.
Depending upon each person's needs, Dr. Neall's modalities of treatment could include but are not limited to, any of the following: botanical therapies, nutritional and/or diet counseling and support which may include any combination of vitamins, minerals or herbs, biotherapeutic drainage techniques, homeopathy, and hydrotherapy.
Her special interests in her general family practice are chronic disease, autoimmune disease, women's health issues including hormone imbalances such as PMS and menopause, mood disorders, digestive difficulties and allergies. She treats a wide population in her practice, including children as young as 3 months and elder-folk as mature as 85. She is one of the two physicians at the Clinic who provides the EAV food intolerance testing to individuals and finds this method provides incredible information and relief for many people.
Dr. Neall also regularly provides lectures for New Seasons Market education series as well as other venues around Portland.
In her "spare" time, you might find her working in her garden, working on her 1948-built house, walking her 2 year old puppy, reading a good book, cooking a great meal, or traveling to some wonderfully exotic and warm place!
Dr. Neall looks forward to meeting you and helping you discover the root cause of your illness or imbalance. Her goal will then be to teach and guide you to personally become involved as part of a team with her in order to achieve your optimal state of health and well-being. Please call to arrange an appointment time.
