About

Andrew Godenick, ND, L.Ac

Licensed Naturopathic Physician & Licensed Acupuncturist

The VISION

To bridge the gap between conventional medicine and traditional forms of healing so as to better care for the individual in need of health care.

The MISSION

To educate individuals on health care options, their risks and benefits; to empower the individual to accept full responsibility for his/her own health; to assist in the healing journey afforded the individual by his/her particular health needs; to “walk the talk” in my own life, modeling healthy behavior for mind, body, and spirit to my patients, co-workers, and colleagues.

WHY?

The health statistics within the United States continue to drop while the costs of this “sick-care” model steadily climb. We in the USA comprise just over 5% of the world’s population, yet we consume more than 50% of all prescription drugs worldwide, 80% of all pain medications, and 95% of all opioids–a growing problem all its own.

Depending on whose numbers are believed, entering into conventional medical care (the use of drugs and medical procedures) ranks as either the #3, or #1 cause of death in the US! Medical and osteopathic doctors know this. We all agree that “the system” is BROKEN!

So what’s a healer to do? This one learned a trade in medicine outside the conventional norm –

I focus on teaching my patients how to LIVE differently–how to buy, cook, and consume the foods that will be their medicine, how to sleep better, how to think better. In short, how to become vibrantly healthy! 

If you want something different, something more, something unconventional… I would be honored to be considered as a guide on your health-care goal-setting/reaching journey.
