Pediatrics

Dr. Brook Schales provides full-service pediatric care for newborns, children, and teens. As a naturopathic family physician, she is trained in pediatric diagnosis and treatment of many pediatric conditions from both a conventional and naturopathic perspective. A unique aspect of choosing a naturopathic physician for pediatric care is the ability to receive care that integrates natural therapies, including nutrition, vitamin and mineral supplementation, botanical medicine, and homeopathy, with conventional diagnostics and pharmaceutical treatment. Dr. Schales approaches pediatric care with a goal to always start with the gentlest treatment possible, but to utilize pharmaceutical medications when necessary.
