..treats you from a whole person perspective
(psychologically, emotionally, etc), identifies
and addresses the causes of your "dis-ease" with
non-toxic, natural therapies, helps you prevent
illness and live your life's journey to the

..was founded by Sutter Health Credentialed
Integrative Holistic Practitioner and Sacramento
native, Dennis Godby, M.A., N.M.D - one of
California's first licensed naturopathic medical
doctors - to provide a pathway for your healing.
Dr. Godby has been inspiring people to improve
their health and fitness since his 1,420 mile
solo run across the Northern Cascades and
Canadian Rockies, for that cause, 31 years ago.
Dr. Godby practices primary care naturopathic
medicine, using diagnostic exams and laboratory
tests, clinical nutrition, herbal medicine,
lifestyle counseling, homeopathy and
bioidentical hormones. Other assessment tools
include Biomeridian, Thyroflex and Body
Impedance Analysis (% body fat, body
composition, wtc.).
I believe that what really sets us apart from
other medical offices is that we have the
friendliest and most helpful staff anywhere!

"I left your office for the first time feeling like
I had talked to a healthcare practitioner who really
listened to me."

What is Naturopathic Medicine?
Naturopathic medicine is based on the belief that
the human body has an innate healing ability.
Naturopathic doctors (NDs) teach their patients to
use diet, exercise, lifestyle changes and cutting
edge natural therapies to enhance their bodies’
ability to ward off and combat disease. Naturopathic
physicians craft comprehensive treatment plans that
blend the best of modern medical science and
traditional natural medical approaches to not only
treat disease, but to also restore health.

Powerful Principles of Naturopathic Medicine
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:
- First do no harm
Use the most natural, least invasive and least toxic therapies first
- Identify and treat the underlying causes of illness and remove the obstacles to cure
rather than merely treating symptoms.
- Use the healing power of nature.
- Treat the whole person.
- Prevent when possible.
- Doctor is a teacher.
 “When I first came in to see the alternative
medicine Dr. Godby, I was a diabetic with high blood
pressure, severe kidney issues and congestive heart
failure. My doctor had told me that 30% of my
heart was damaged permanently. I am now happy to report that, after an
echocardiogram, my heart is "healed and normal."
~ Judith Wright, Sacramento
