Dr. Dennis Godby, NMD
CA-Licensed, Primary Care Naturopathic Medical Doctor, one of "California's:
Natural Medicine Experts"
Testimonials:
When I first came to see Dr. Godby, my immune system was completely gone. I was chronically ill with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), acid reflux, flus, memory loss and confused thinking and I was unable to sleep and I was very depressed. After following a adrenal gland exhaustion and neurotransmitter improvement program, I can happily state that I am now functioning at a much higher level. My progress is very noticeable.
I have retired from the large research based conventional medical system and can categorically state that I've seldom encountered the type of care, compassion and medical options that Dr Godby offered in his practice. He is the kind of physician who gives sacrificially for the sake of helping those of us down and out. He wll get his eternal rewards!
To have a doctor spend time exploring my past and offering options and suggestions with so much compassion was the one thing that gave me hope at such a difficult time. Wilma, the office manager is wonderful, and will always go the extra 100 miles to help patients.
Thank you, Sacramento Naturopathic Wellness Center!
Jo LaSalle, West Sacramento (2008)
I just wanted to say thank you for your help with my son. The food allergy test, supplements and dietary guidelines have proven tremendously successful. My son has gained ten pounds since his last visit and his mood has greatly improved (it's so nice to see him smile and laugh again!). His therapist and pediatrician both were taken aback by the dramatic, visible change in him in such a short time. In fact, the first comment from his pediatrician was "I see the Prozac is working." He was so surprised to find that we had decided not to fill the prescription at all, and instead chose a more natural approach.
My son is getting used to making healthier food choices and avoiding dairy, wheat and eggs. As the weeks go by, he "cheats" less and less, since he feels such a difference in his body and mood when he eats properly! Thank you, Dr Godby. I am truly grateful - I really do feel that you helped bring my son back from a very dark time in his life!
Mother of 16-year-old boy, Antelope, CA (2007)
Dr Godby, I feel healthier in a month since seeing you than I have in the last two years...so thank you, thank you, thank you! I meant what I said in the office; it is So, So nice to have a doctor who is so available - even outside appointment times. I wanted to let you know that since I've been seeing you - I've lost 15 pounds! People keep asking me what I am doing and when I tell them all I've done is change my diet; they just say, 'WOW!' (8/07)
I originally came to see Dr Godby for a variety of reasons, one of which was problems with bloating and tremendous intestinal discomfort. I had a very simple food allergy test in his office and the results came back quickly - letting us know that I had allergies to all dairy products. I have since cut milk, cheese, yogurt and eggs out of my diet and I am feeling 100% better! I've never been a person who is easily convinced that food affects how I feel to a great extent...I now know that I've been terribly wrong, and being wrong severely affected my health and quality of life! Since making a simple dietary change that excludes dairy products, I've lost 16 pounds since the end of May without much effort! I've begun a walking regime recently and am watching the pounds melt away. I now simply substitute dairy products for a little soy milk or yogurt and with the numerous vegan alternatives available in almost every grocery store, I can easily get the nutrients I need without the pain and bloating of eating foods that are making me sick. This isn't reworking every aspect of my life...these are simple, very easy, very small chamges.
My health and well-being is up to me. Dr Godby is a wonderful, supporting naturopathic guide on this journey - but ultimately my health is in my hands. If I choose not to make the changes he suggest, and the ones that I find work, then what I AM choosing is an unhealthy relationship with myself. That is no longer what I want. The old saying that if you don't have your health, you don't have anything is absolutely true. I choose health and life!
Clare Powell, Elk Grove, CA (9/2007)
I started seeing Dr. Godby about a year ago. When I first came in to see him at the clinic, I was losing my eyesight, had severe kidney issues, was a diabetic with high blood sugars, had high blood pressure, and possibly the worst of it all, my heart was failing as I had congestive heart failure. Before I came to see Dr. Godby, my MD told me that 30% of my heart was damaged permanently. I am happy to now report that after being put on a nutritional supplement regime by Dr. Godby - according to my cardiologist, after an echocardiogram - my heart is "healed and normal."
Dr Godby has a caring manner, with lot of integrity, and he is knowledgeable about conventional and natural medicines. I am so astonished that my heart is healthy and my Hgb A1C for diabetes, is well within the normal range.
Judith Wright, Sacramento, (2007)
I had been getting the run around from other physicans for 5 months, as I frantically tried to get help for my 2-year-old son who had chronic eczema. His feet were raw, cracking and bleeding when I came to see Dr. Godby, a naturopathic doctor. My son's feet are now healing, and I am so relieved. I am impressed how concerned Dr. Godby is about my son's well-being. From the first day we saw Dr. Godby, he immediately worked up a plan and we had very quick results. Also, my son is very comfortable at his office which says a lot, because he has always cried at every other office. It is nice to know he is so comfortable. He even said, "I love you, Doctor."
Dana Prince, Roseville, CA, (2006)
Dr. Godby:
I'm feeling soooo much better for the first time in many years. Because of serious lung disease, before I came to see Dr. Godby, I could barely walk 1/4 mile, now I am walking 3 miles. I have no bad effects from his medicine. I like the way he explains why I should take each nutritional. I am going to tell my family and friends about Diabetes Natural Path Center.
Cora Ross, Railroad Flat, CA, (2006)
Thank you, Dr. Godby, so much for your invaluable help with my daughter. When we first came to see you, she had just been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, and we were very nervous about my 6-year-old child having to inject insulin, with her whole life in front of her. But after seeing her hemoglobin A1C go from 11 to 5.5 in six months, and the care and time you took with our family to explain everything, we couldn't be more pleased. Thank you again.
Paul Benassini, Sacramento, CA, (2006)
Go to see Dr. Godby to help you in whatever condition you are in. Alternative medicine is a wonderful alternative.
John Gregg, Sacramento, CA, (2006) |
What if your food, instead of nourishing you and your family, was, because of hidden and delayed food allergies, actually making you and your loved ones sick and lethargic – all without your awareness?
ADHD, autism, abdominal cramping, anxiety, arthritis and asthma, childhood chronic conditions, plus hundreds of other conditions and symptoms, like eczema, fatigue, headaches, insomnia, obesity, PMS, recurrent ear infections, and many others can be associated with hidden and delayed food allergies/sensitivities!
Many of the testimonials on this website are about the transformation of health that took place because patients took a simple blood spot test to discover which foods were destroying their health!
IgG food allergies/sensitivities are hidden and delayed, by definition. The response by the body is not immediate, so it is nearly impossible to know which foods are causing the problems - unless you test. Most people, including conventional medical professionals, are unaware of this form of food allergy, or at least to the magnitude of the problem. Some estimate one-half or more of the American population may have multiple food allergies.
Most people prefer to test for food allergies, instead of having to endure the hassle of eliminating one food at a time.
REMOVING THE OBSTACLES TO CURE!
Everyday in my practice I have the privilege of seeing the health of my patients, of all ages, being transformed - once the obstacles to cure are removed!
At the same, however, I am saddened knowing that so many Americans are living so far below their health potential - living in pain, without energy, and feeling hopeless. This situation, for me is tragic, because it doesn't have to be this way. Naturopathic medicine has solutions to chronic health conditions that revitalizes a person's mind, body and spirit!
As we approach another celebration of freedom on the 4th of July in the United States, you might ask yourself a few questions:
"Am I living to my fullest health potential?
"How free am I, really, if I don't have my health, and the energy and vitality to pursue my passions and dreams?"
"What am I doing, right now, to take control of my health?"
"Are pharmaceutical drugs or natural medicine more likely to improve my vitality?"
Recently, a mother brought her three-year-old son for a naturopathic medical consultation. He had a history of frequent ear infections, severe snoring/sleep apnea, asthma, congestion and allergies. The child was miserable, and his mother was extremely worried!
His previous doctors put him on a low dose antibiotic, and wanted to put tubes in his ears, and remove his tonsils and adenoids. That was one medical option.
From a naturopathic perspective, removing the obstacles to cure is one of our primary goals. In this case, in order to determine if the very foods that were supposed to be nourishing him, were actually, instead, making him sick, we did a simple hidden/delayed food allergy blood spot test.
I suggested that he stop several suspect foods - even before the results came back from the lab.
Two weeks later, the mom and son returned for his follow-up appointment - and the boy was almost symptom-free. The mom was stunned and amazed!
How do you think she felt to NOT hear him snore or wheeze or to hear the other familiar sounds of her little boy in distress?
This is what happens when the obstacles to cure are removed!

According to this 2003 law, only California-licensed naturopathic doctors can call themselves a "naturopathic doctor," or an "N.D."
The Bureau of Naturopathic Medicine of the California Department of Consumer Affairs makes it easy for consumers to know who is "Licensed Naturopathic Doctor." Just follow the link below to look up a name, either by county or by last name:

"First, Do No Harm" is the first principle of naturopathic medicine. The longer that I practice naturopathic medicine, the more appreciation I have for this principle.
- You often hear people talking of "side effects" from pharmaceutical drugs, but until one hears the stories, and feels the emotions of patients/friends/family members whose lives have been devastated by properly prescribed drugs, it is difficult to fully understand the impact.
Call Today to Consult with California-Licensed, Primary Care, Naturopathic Medical Doctor, Dennis Godby, MA, NMD, by Telephone or in Office and Learn the Natural Medicine Secrets How to Explode Your Energy Level, Optimize Your Health, Reverse Chronic Disease, And All With...No Side Effects!
More and More Americans Are Becoming Aware that Getting and Staying Healthy, and Having the Vitality to be Fully Engaged in Life and Participating in Vigorous Activities is Not Achieved Through Pharmaceutical Drugs and Side Effects Medicine, but Through Lifestyle Modification and Natural Therapeutics. Optimal Health Can Only Be Achieved Through Optimal Living - Not Optimal Drugs!
I Would Encourage You to Ask Yourself Three Very Important Questions about You and Your Health:
What Am I Willing to Do to Revitalize My Health?
What Are My Health Goals?
What Do I Want/Expect from My Healthcare?
If you are responsible for the wellness of other family members, such as children or elderly parents, what are you willing to do for their health? Is a prescription drug-oriented system good enough for you and your loved ones?
While Prescription Drugs and Surgery Have Their Place, is the Conventional System the One You Want to Rely on for You and Your Family's Health, Wellness and Life?
Because Naturopathic Doctors (NDs) are Fairly New To California, Many People Ask Us How We Compare to MDs. The following may help:
NDs have more academic instruction and take more board exams than MDs, because NDs have to study everything MDs do, but NDs also take dozens of additional classes in natural medicine, such as clinical nutrition, homeopathy, botanicals, etc.
NDs spend on average 1 hour or more with patients, building healing, trusting relationships, instead of 5-10 minute check-in appointments more common in conventional medicine.
NDs focus on treating patients with natural medicine and lifestyle modification, instead of drugs and surgery, so you don't have to worry about toxic therapies that may cause other problems.
NDs treat the whole person (physically, emotionally, psychologically, spiritually), not just the disease.
NDs are medical detectives looking for cause(s) of medical conditions, instead of focusing just on treating symptoms, so you can feel confident that your doctor is getting to the root of the problem, while also helping you to alleviate your uncomfortable symptoms now!
NDs emphasize prevention, so you don't have to wait to develop problems.
NDs have hundreds of functional medicine laboratory tests to help diagnose cause, tests that are usually not available in conventional medicine settings.
NDs are teachers, that educate patients in the steps to achieving and maintaining health!
So I would encourage you to ask yourself if:
Your Present System is "Good Enough" for You?
Your Present System is Helping You to Optimize Your Health?
You are Satisfied with Your Present State of Health?
Do You Think You or Your Loved Ones Would Benefit From?:
Increasing Your Energy Level
Being Thinner

If You Have Everything, but Your Health, Do You Really Have Anything?
Real people, just like you, are feeling better, preventing dis-ease, and restoring their health and vitality by choosing naturopathic medicine. These pioneers are embarking on both the paths of traditional and progressive medicine. "Traditional" medicine that originated with our ancestors was "natural" medicine. While conventional medicine has pharmaceutical drugs that have saved many lives; properly-prescribed drugs also have serious side effects, which include killing thousands of Americans every year.
Is it really an advancement in medicine, if a male patient, with high blood pressure, for example, takes pharmaceutical medicine to reduce his blood pressure, but as a consequence, also has to deal with the side effect of "erectile dysfuntion?"
Naturopathic medical doctors (N.M.D.) (also called Naturopathic Doctors ND), are guided by 6 powerful principles, one of which is prevention, another is utilizing the most natural, least invasive, and least toxic therapies, first, and still another is identifying and treating the cause of illness rather than merely treating symptoms.
Naturopathic medicine is "first resort" medicine. The best cure is not needing a cure! "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." Prevention and natural therapies make sense and cents and there are no side effects.
