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!

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)

The following are answers to frequent questions about how much medical education and clinical training that California-Licensed Naturopathic Medical Doctors (NMDs) receive:
California-licensed naturopathic medical doctors complete a four-year post-graduate program from nationally accredited naturopathic medical schools.
California-licensed naturopathic medical doctors actually spend more time in the classroom than MDs; NMDs and MDs take the exact same classes in the core curriculum in their respective medical school - but NMDs also take an additional 25 or so classes in natural medical therapies that MDs do not take.
Naturopathic medical schools requirements include at least 4,300 hours of classroom and clinical training.
In California, a naturopath can not identify themselves as "ND" or "NMD" or a "doctor" unless he or she is licensed by the State of California and is listed on the following CA Department of Consumers Affairs website:

If you are seeking a California-licensed primary care doctor who:

-is credentialed through Sutter Medical Foundation as a Complementary Medical Practitioner
-is a parent, former classroom teacher, that will help your children feel comfortable, whether they are in the office as visitors or as patients
-does functional lab tests and conventional blood and urine testing that uses an "optimal" range (Jack LaLanne route) to earlier detect potential problems and do preventative medicine, rather than merely using the wide standard "reference" range where you are told "all the labs look normal" even though you know something is wrong!
-will lighten your load, stress and exhaustion with a realistic, simple and practical treatment program
-will always tell you the truth and will encourage you to be optimistic about your attempts to heal yourself
-will test hormones and neurotransmitters, and will prescribe prescribe bioidentical hormones and neurotransmitter support, if necessary
-will not prescribe anti-depressants or other pharmaceuticals for insomnia to cover up other problems

While bioidentical hormones (hormones biochemically identical to those made in the body), are commonly prescribed at the Sacramento Naturopathic Medical Center, it is always done in light of the powerful principles of naturopathic medicine:
1. First do no harm.
Use the most natural, least invasive and
least toxic therapies first
2. Identify and treat the underlying causes of illness and remove the obstacles to cure rather than merely treating symptoms.
3. Use the healing power of nature.
4. Treat the whole person.
5. Prevent when possible.
The seven keys to safe hormone replacement therapy:
1. Use bioidentical hormones.
2. Individualize the dose to each person.
3. Monitor the dose with lab testing for all hormones.
4. Balance and test all hormones, not just estrogen and progesterone.
5. Protect against any HRT-induced nutrient deficiencies.
6. Protect against the formation of blood clots.
7. Monitor for side effects.
