Services
Naturopathic doctor oncology providers (ND Oncs) play an important role in cancer care, seeking to educate, help manage side effects of cancer treatment, improve overall response, help prevent recurrence, and to optimize health. To help achieve positive patient outcomes, ND Oncs use a wide range of natural therapeutics and supportive strategies based on clinical trials, long-standing traditional use, and patient preference.
NatureMed can help you overcome acute and chronic GI conditions ranging from dysbiosis, heartburn, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), eosinophilic esophagitis, small intestinal bacteria overgrowth (SIBO), gastro-paresis, chronic diarrhea and constipation, and inflammatory bowel disease, such as Crohn's Disease and ulcerative colitis.
Both our medical doctor and the staff naturopathic doctors have done extensive training in natural (bioidentical) hormone replacement. Dr. Steve Parcell is board certified in anti-aging medicine through the American Academy for Anti-aging Medicine (A4M). We offer all types; from hCG to testosterone injections, creams and pellets.
We have found that sports anemia is common is the greater Denver and Boulder area. Low ferritin is ten times more common in women than men. We use a very high quality, highly absorbable iron as the source of intravenous iron because it is typically well tolerated. Intravenous iron must be approved by our medical doctor.
Fatigue is a natural response to over-exerting either physically, mentally or emotionally. With rest on each of these levels, the fatigue resolves and our energy is restored. But have you ever noticed that many people are tired, and many are sick and tired of feeling sick and tired! Most people push themselves every day.

I have been to several Naturopath doctors and specialist MD's over the years trying to get help for chronic health issues. Dr. Kelly Parcell has been very helpful in starting to get me some answers about the causes of my chronic skin issues and determining from bloodwork that I have a Candida yeast overgrowth. I am now encouraged to be working with her on treating this through diet changes as well as other treatment and I'm already seeing results! She has been very supportive and encouraging on my health journey thus far and I look forward to seeing more improvements in my health. I would highly

I've had opportunity to have consults with various doctors at Naturemed over the years, and every single one of them has been extraordinarily knowledgeable and caring. Our star doctor has been Dr. West, and we can't thank her enough for all she has done for us. We love and admire her so very much. Those working the main desk have also been very attentive, and good at following up when we have questions. Alyssa, the current front-desk person, represents the peak of efficiency. It's always nice to know that we can count on her. We have had such good results with Integrative Medicine, that we take

My wife and I are so grateful for Dr Kirsten West and the entire staff at NatureMed. A few months ago, my wife was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer during an elective hysterectomy, and we have chosen to pursue holistic treatment at NatureMed despite living in Maryland. The staff was compassionate and competent, and Dr West was extremely compassionate and knowledgeable. Looking forward to 100% healing!

It was my first time getting a Myers' cocktail IV and was impressed with the professionalism of the staff and the great setting. The setting was clinical, yet warm and relaxing. The staff clearly explained the IV process and checked in on my regularly. I have since visited a few other IV clinics and can say Naturemed is by far and away the best setting and service I have experienced.

I visited the Naturemed clinic for almost a year. I bought hundreds of dollars in supplements and felt no real improvement with my chief health concerns. The week before Thanksgiving, I came into the office with severe abdominal pain. The doctor did an abdominal examination and I cried as she palpated my lower right side. When she was finished she told me to stop taking all my supplements, but also recommended I buy another one ( a probiotic this time). Later that night I developed a fever and vomiting. My boyfriend had to beg me to go to the emergency room (I was very reluctant because I had just

I am so grateful to Dr. Kelly who checked my blood iron levels and discovered I was very low. I didn't realize how much that was affecting my breathing. I had recently been experiencing anxiety in a group setting which was so unlike me. But little did I know that my iron was so low it was affecting the ability of my blood to oxygenate and when I was talking louder in large groups I couldn't get enough O2. Dr. Kelly discovered the low iron and suggested an iron IV to get the level up quickly. I ended up doing two IV's over a two week period and my iron levels went from 16 to

First of all, I will say that I have nothing negative to say about my consultation with Dr. Stephen Parcell. It's how the office is managed that has me ticked off.
I recently had an initial consultation with Dr. Parcell. I completed the necessary paperwork prior to the office visit. I told them when I arrived I couldn't pay the entire amount for the visit that day and was given an office policy form to complete which I did. It stated that if the person can't pay at the initial visit, there will be a $10 charge on top of the full visit charge for the invoicing. I thought that

I have been a patient of Dr. Steve Parcell for the past 6 months. Working with Dr. Steve and NatureMed Clinic has been a great experience. After several years of recovery from surgery along with an underlying complex endocrine condition, I am lucky to have Dr. Steve as my primary doctor now. He has has taken the time to fully understand my medical history to guide my climb back to health and fitness. Over the past 6 months, I have made much more progress with Dr. Steve than the years that followed my surgery.

When I turned 45 I knew I had to get serious about my health and keeping my youthful energy and looks. I was starting to feel the symptoms of peri-menopause and decided I was not going to become just another middle aged woman with all the symptoms I had seen my friends endure: loss of libido, moodiness, hot flashes, weight gain, lifeless hair and skin, memory and sleep problems. I read several books and got excited about Bio-identical Hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). I felt great within weeks and have only had mild menopausal symptoms over the years. I am symptom free at this time. I am 51 yrs

I made an appointment via the website. I was really excited for the appointment, but when I showed up, was told that their online system isn't synced (don't know why they didn't remove it or manually check to call patients that booked this way) and they did not have an appointment for me. I could however book one two weeks out. I had arranged my schedule around this appointment and quite frankly don't have much confidence in a medical practice that offers online appointments that don't work (and they know they don't work!).

Nine months ago in June 2013 I was referred to Drs. Steve and Kelly Parcell of the NatureMed Clinic in Boulder, Colorado for my newly-discovered cardiovascular and diabetes conditions.
My referral to Drs. Parcell resulted from a nation-wide search to locate and seek medical help for my conditions from top-notch medical practitioners who practice holistic medicine blended with traditional medicine when necessary.

I have multiple serious health problems that seemingly refuse to respond to western medicine. You can imagine how exhausted and nickle-and-dimed that means I was when I turned to alternative therapies. I wanted two things: a doctor that had experience in treating my conditions and one that would do what my other doctors wouldn't: look for the root of the problem.
Suffice it to say I was really disappointed with my experience here. With no lab tests, just a discussion of past symptoms, I was sold about $300 worth of supplements, which I felt were sort of conveniently dosed to run out in 30

By far the worst experience I've ever had with a so called doctors office. I recently moved to Colorado and have been looking for a good hormone specialist similar to the one I saw previously. So I was very well aware that bioidentical hormone therapy can be quite costly. I came across NatureMed online and thought their holistic approach to medicine sounded like a good fit for me. So I called and spoke to the secretary who was very helpful and kind. I explained to her that I have a some what inconsistent schedule and there for the appointment I made might need to be rescheduled as it was 3

I came to Nature Med through a connection of a family member four months ago. This was my first experience with a naturopathic doctor and, really, any "alternative" physician. After 13 years of asking my various PCP's for assistance with weight loss, and simply being told that I need to consume fewer calories than I take in (as if weight loss were a simple matter of self-control), I decided to seek help from a different type of venue.
Thirty-five pounds of weight loss later, I can wholeheartedly endorse this clinic and their approach. Dr. Kelly is attentive, listens well and

I took my son here to help him get healthy, since he has been feeling bad for a while. Dr. Steve took a lot of time with him and explained everything so that my son knew what was being done, why, and how he would be correcting imbalances. The staff was very friendly and helpful and made us feel really welcome. I felt that the entire experience was positive and gave my son confidence that he can start feeling better. We have been to several doctors and they only want to give my son antidepressants.
The testing that is done by this doctor is very extensive so you can really know what your body needs
