About the Doc
Dr. Thomas S. Lee is an experienced and innovative
naturopathic physician. After fortuitous connections with
remarkable physicians and healers, he found that
naturopathic medicine combined the best of the old and new in
medical knowledge. The compelling history of ancient natural
medicines and the tools of understanding through modern scientific
methods and technologies are joined in naturopathic medicine. The
elder physicians he met inspired his passion for the possibilities
of transformational medicine.
Dr. Lee received a Doctorate in Naturopathic
Medicine (NMD/ND) in 1986 from Bastyr
University in Seattle, Washington. Licensed in Washington,
Manitoba, and Arizona, he has been certified since 1996 as a
specialist in Family Medicine by the American Board of Naturopathic
Medical Specialties. In 2006 he was certified as an Advanced
Practitioner of Homeopathy (APH) by the Nevada State Board of
Homeopathic Medical Examiners. While Nevada does not yet license
Naturopathic Doctors, the state's Homeopathic Medical Board has
achieved a scope of practice as wide as that of naturopathic
physicians in other states.
Dr. Lee has been a featured medical commentator in
Arizona television and radio programming, and received the Physician
of the Year Award from the Arizona Naturopathic Medical Association
in 1994. He was president of the Arizona Naturopathic Medical
Association in 1995 and 1996, and served on its board of directors
from 1989 to 2000. His award-winning website,
NaturoDoc.com, has provided
natural health products and information since 1999.
Dr. Lee's practice has grown over the years into his
present specialty of treating serious degenerative diseases with an
eclectic fusion of effective natural medicines and therapies. He
functions as either the primary physician or a consulting team
member in these cases. Experiences with multinational teams
treating challenging patients has shown him that modern health care
requires better collaboration and respect for the medical systems
and providers of other nations. Today's most serious medical
challenges are transnational, and their effective treatment requires
intelligent political and economic solutions as much as the
scientific and therapeutic advances we have enjoyed thus far.
Dr. Lee has traveled extensively throughout the
world, and these experiences have inspired his personal practice of
medicine. He is convinced that doctors of the future will function
within an interconnected world community of caregivers and varied
belief systems. What we know to be holistic and naturopathic
medicines encompass principles of healing and care that bridge many
cultural and economic boundaries. The most effective methods and
materials will be drawn from the best physicians in a diverse human
community. |
