Dr. Brown, co-owner and co-founder of Wellness Dimensions, is a NABNE board-certified Naturopathic Doctor and Functional Medicine Doctor. He attended medical school at Southwest College in Arizona where he graduated at the top of his medical class earning the “Highest Academic Achievement” award.
A licensed Naturopathic doctor (N.D./N.M.D.) attends one of five accredited four year medical schools where he/she graduates as a primary care physician licensed and trained as a specialist in functional/integrative medicine. They are educated in all of the same basic sciences as an MD, but also study more holistic/natural, non-toxic approaches to therapy with a strong emphasis on disease prevention and optimizing wellness. In addition to a standard medical curriculum, the naturopathic physician is required to complete four years of training in clinical nutrition, acupuncture, homeopathic medicine, botanical medicine, psychology, counseling, bio-identical hormone therapy and the use of prescription nutritional supplements. A Naturopathic physician takes rigorous professional board exams so that he/she may be licensed by a state or jurisdiction as a primary care general practice physician.
