Dr. Christie Yerby is a licensed naturopathic doctor, available for on-site office visits, phone consultations,
and house calls. She is also a natural science advisor to the products industry and is often asked to educate and collaborate with conventionally-trained
medical professionals on natural alternatives for patient treatment. She is frequently called upon to write patient care protocols, product education handouts, and articles reflecting the latest in natural science research.
Having successfully received her doctorate in naturopathic medicine as a graduate of Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine and Health Sciences, listed in the 2007 Princeton Review "Top 168 Medical Schools", she completed both the national licensing board testing process and the Arizona state licensing board tests in medical science and clinical subjects, the gold standard of testing not accomplished by most naturopathic doctors. In addition to her U.S. classroom and clinical work,
Dr. Yerby's philosophy of healthcare focuses on both the prevention and treatment of chronic conditions such as arthritis, digestive disorders, hypertension, and heart disease. Special emphasis is on detoxification of the body in the pursuit of ones own optimal health. Her treatment suggestions include the elimination of toxins in mind and body, so the obstacles to health are removed and healing can begin. Dr. Yerby emphasizes the importance of taking responsibility for one's own health and encourages an active partnership between patient and doctor to facilitate a safe and successful health program. Dr. Yerby's educational message to others is anchored in the beliefs that the body has the ability to heal itself if given the help and support it often needs, utilizing treatment resources easily accessible. These natural "medicines" include sunlight, fresh air, pure water, whole and unprocessed food, quiet communication with Nature, and a good balance of work, exercise, and rest. As a part-time instructor at Central Carolina Community College, Dr. Yerby regularly taught a course on nutritional supplements and personal program planning called, "Supplements: The Good, the Bad, and the Toxic." Recently, Dr. Yerby presented a successful four-week series, sponsored by the College, called "What Everyone Woman Should Know." A journalist by undergraduate degree, Dr. Yerby is often the author of health and wellness articles, topics ranging from women’s health, chronic illness prevention, how to work successfully with your health care professionals, and other areas within which a variety of health concerns are discussed with suggestions on how natural medicines may be supportive or beneficial. Her book, Health Without Hospitals, is a collection of those published articles. |
We will begin a program modeled after the Mayo Clinic Research Program for reducing cholesterol, LDLs, and triglycerides without statin medications. Their recent research study provides solid evidence that cholesterol can be managed without medications such as Lipitor, Crestor, Prevacol (and others) and their harmful side-effects. Research Finds Non-Drug Therapy for High Cholesterol New research findings are published now describing a non-drug formula that works as well as Lipitor, or other medications in the same category, without the damaging side effects of the medication. Pick-Your-Own Blood Tests: Now, without your doctor's order, you can select the test you want to run, and for very little money, we can have lab work ordered, performed by LabCorp, and the results sent directly to you. Product home-delivery for clinical patients: Many products normally purchased from clinics are now approved for home delivery. Please look for your product manufacturer and feel free to call in your refill orders. 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. Important Safety Alert: Is this ethical? A North Carolina pharmacy is selling out-of-date supplement products to their customers.
