By Tutti Gould ND
Who would have believed in the 1970's that the future of naturopathy and homeopathy could seriously rest on the shoulders of a bunch of long haired hippies? That they would rise to the challenge and give back to the professions the credibility they deserved? Dr. Stephen Messer was a part of that movement and today is carrying the torch of that legacy, preparing the next generation of practitioners, so that the "dark ages" of naturopathy remain as history.

Article by Tutti Gould, DC, ND

Dr. David Wember uses more than mere medicine in his practice, he uses intention. "Between the healer and the patient, it is the intention that counts," he says. Of course, sometimes the mind needs a little nudge, and homeopathy is his way of helping it along the desired path. "Homeopathy is only one way; it has to be health with a sense of love. If you have that communion with a patient, they are going to get better," says the 68year-old physician who has been practicing for over 30 years.  Read full article here:

Interview with Dr. Pam Taylor

Article by Tutti Gould, DC, ND

As we follow Dr. Pam Taylor through her global travels, marriages, and extraordinary coincidences, we see her being led into natural medicine to save herself and those around her. Her mission: "the alleviation of pain and suffering" has brought her to the roots of humanity and early forms of Pure Nature Cure. She has compiled the wisdom accumulated from the influence of her father, a holistic dentist as well as from her own experience and that of naturopathic pioneers in her new book: "Simple Ways of Healing" (due to be published in late November). From her studies in medical anthropology, aromatherapy, and work with clay as an accomplished potter - she has developed an ability to have exquisite rapport with her patients. They feel very safe with Dr. Taylor as their advocate, protector and guide. She uses simple effective ways to bring them back home... to themselves. In Alaska and Guatemala she has had wonderful success teaching others to help their own families; this was the genesis for her book. A handbook we should all have within easy reach.

Interview with Dr. Pamela Snider

Article by Tutti Gould, DC, ND

Dr. Pamela Snider is the kind of friend everyone wants to have. She is right there by your side to celebrate accomplishments, offering comfort and direction in times of trouble, and providing honest words of wisdom when no one else dares. She is able to transform this feeling of trust, loyalty, love and leadership into every role she has played in life, as a mother, teacher, naturopathic physician, business woman/entrepreneur, associate dean, political advisor, senior editor and visionary. All of Dr. Snider's efforts have been team accomplishments. Her success and satisfaction strategy involves bringing together the best people she can find globally to help create profound changes in the world of natural medicine - whether it's in business, defining naturopathic medicine, and most recently in the editing of a major textbook in naturopathic medicine. I had the privilege of working with her in 1990, when we co-founded the Canadian division of Standard Homeopathic Company. Once it was incorporated and the infrastructure in place, Dr. Snider decided to leave the business world to focus her attention in the academic field of naturopathic medicine in Washington State.

Interview with Dr. Edgar Sheaffer, VMD
by Tutti Gould, DC, ND
...We all love to hear success stories; they feed the homeopath's soul and Dr. Ed operates on a grand scale. Imagine treating a whole herd of cows suffering from pneumonia, and having the confidence to stay with it, keeping antibiotics at arms length as the magic of homeopathy unfolds cell by cell, organ by organ until the animal is healthy again...
...Dr. Ed talks about the remedies as though they are his friends - each remedy with its own characteristic picture. We can relate to them, and remember them through our own symptoms or those of people we know..
