About Dr Eric Wood, ND
Dr Eric Wood, ND is a registered Minnesota naturopathic doctor, a licensed District of Columbia (Washington D.C.) naturopathic doctor, a graduate of the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine, a member of both the Florida and Minnesota Association of Naturopathic Physicians, and a member of the Oncology Association of Naturopathic Physicians, currently pursuing FABNO certification.
He focuses in a holistic way towards general practice with expertise especially in integrative oncology, biotoxin illnesses (i.e. mold and tick-borne illnesses) & environmental medicine/toxicity, and children/adolescent wellness & mental and digestive health. Within these primary areas, he typically works on a host of different levels including addressing issues such as the typical adrenal, digestive, fatigue and hormonal issues that arise from such (and that are rampant in the general population as well).
Increasingly, his practice is focusing on the mental/emotional and trauma components of chronic illness, drawing upon his early work and training with Neuroscience Inc., his course of study at Harvard/Mass General in Mind Body Medicine, additional study on the biology of trauma and his interest in energy medicine. Since becoming a father in 2019, he has also taken a greater interest in children’s wellness, seeing many shortcomings in the conventional pediatric model.
Previously, Wood completed a ILADs fellowship in 2009 in tick-borne illnesses with notable lyme experts Dr Richard Horowitz, Dr Quincai Zhang, and Dr Bernard Raxlen, and completed a year-long fellowship with EMEI in Environmental Medicine in 2021-22 (www.emeiglobal.com). He has also observed and volunteered at some of the most notable integrative cancer clinics in North America including the Issels Clinic (California), Medicor (Canada), and the Cancer Treatment Centers of America (Chicago) while completing naturopathic medical school.
He additionally completed specialized training at Harvard University’s Benson Henry Institute for Mind Body Medicine in 2007, completed specialty rotations in HIV/AIDS naturopathic care through the Sherbourne Health Center and the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (2008) and through Georgetown University’s Food as Medicine Training program in 2014. He has additionally pursued advanced training in European Homotoxicology & Biotherapeutic Drainage, Environmental Medicine through the American Academy of Environmental Medicine and EHS, and Mistletoe Therapy through PAAM.
To gain valuable knowledge and unique experience early on his career, Dr Wood garnered opportunities to work with some of the most notable supplement and medical organizations in the country including Neuroscience Inc. and the Life Extension Foundation. For these two pioneering outfits, he worked as a naturopathic doctor specialist in the areas of adrenal fatigue/stress-related complaints, and anti-aging, oncology and tick-borne illnesses respectively, consulting with clinics and patients globally. While at Life Extension, he had additional opportunity to gain training in the area of anti-aging in conjunction with the A4M association (www.a4m.com). Throughout his tenure with the Life Extension Foundation, he worked closely with the notable International Strategic Cancer Alliance and counseled literally thousands of clients globally, discussing traditional, integrative and alternative medicine treatment options, supplement and dietary regimens, medication/supplement interactions and much more. Since that time, he founded his own health consulting business (i.e Visionary Health), served as Medical Director for Beyond Biology (Florida) and now Actib Health (www.actibhealth.com), and has transitioned into private practice so he can work more extensively one-on-one with clients via Visionary Health.
He teaches integrative oncology and environmental medicine in the naturopathic medicine program at National University of Health Sciences in the greater Chicago area (www.nuhs.edu) and is Professor of Integrative and Functional Medicine at John Patrick University of Health and Applied Sciences in South Bend, Indiana (www.jpu.edu).
