I first started seeing Dr. B in February and really can't say enough good things about my experience. At the time of my first visit, I had been very sick for over ten years with what became increasingly life-threatening in the last 2 years. Through the years, I had been to M.D.'s of all flavors and colors, D.O.'s, acupuncturists, herbalists.....you name it, I had done it! I had an exhausted lists of tests and protocols that had failed to help. There was even a considerable amount of self-teaching with regard to nutrition and health as well. Still, no one could help me and despite all of our efforts, I grew sicker. When I went to see Dr. B for the first time, I truly felt like he was my last hope. My complicated case involved so many organ systems and advanced manifestations of illness that it was clear time was of the essence in beginning to halt and reverse the cascading process of disease. What I first realized about Dr. Butchart was his inexhaustible capacity for listening to me with genuine care and compassion. And really listening. After listening intently, he delivered with clarity what would turn out to be an uncannily accurate description of what he thought was behind my illness. At that time it was only a theory, but as we ordered the appropriate tests it became obvious that he had actually nailed down what many other specialists and doctors had failed to see. I am currently experiencing health that I have not felt in so long that I can't seem to remember when! I am still pinching myself to see if this is a dream. What I truly appreciate about Dr. Butchart's approach is not only its unbelievable effectiveness, but its truly holistic objective. As a doctor, he has what I would call a "rare" talent at balancing the best of many medical worlds. He has an extensive knowledge of herbs, nutrition, homeopathy, and emotional components of illness. He employs pharmaceutical drugs when appropriate in such an artful way so as to gain their maximum benefit without relying on them to oversimplify and ignore a chronic disease. Although this is only the tip of the iceberg of what I would have to say in favor of Dr. Butchart as a physician, healer, and helper, I hope it is enough for you to feel confident that by scheduling an appointment you may in fact be making a very wise decision in terms of resolving your health concerns.

"My idea of what a physician should truly be."
Dear Editor,
This past summer I attended a Chrysalis presentation in Waynesboro, [VA] where a Naturopathic Physician was speaking. In passing, he mentioned that chronic sinus problems could be easily treated. I had read that homeopathy was able to successfully treat many chronic conditions, and since I had a longstanding sinus condition that several conventional physicians had been unable to remedy, I consulted Dr. Butchart. After the first treatment, the most serious symptoms were alleviated. After the second treatment, the condition was almost completely gone. My quality of life has been markedly improved and I want to alert others to the possibility that they don't have to live with worrisome conditions that haven't responded to conventional approaches. Fully trained Naturopathic Physicians are fully accredited physicians who are holistic and can call upon a range of drug-free treatments. They are my idea of what a physician should truly be.

"With expert care and guidance, my health has improved enormously."
Lifelong allergies, chronic constipation, recurrent sinus and yeast infections...I'm a doctor's nightmare. But the good Naturopathic Doctor at Virginia Natural Health didn't brush off my dis-ease. They embraced it. Now thanks to them, I'm living a more productive life. And, with less prescription drugs! It's hard to believe that my health could actually improve. But it has. My Naturopathic Doctor wanted more for me than to control my symptoms. He wanted me symptom free. How refreshing! With his expert care and guidance, my health has improved enormously. We're getting to the bottom of my health challenges, not just masking them with drugs. Now I have a chance to live a fuller life!

"The care and attention you have given to my family is just what I had always wished for in healthcare providers but have never experienced until now."
To the fine Doctor at Virginia Natural Health, Thank you so much for the very effective care you have given to my 14 year-old son. The homeopathic remedy that you prescribed for him had a drastic and lasting effect on his life. He has become a much more enjoyable person to live with. The care and attention you have given to my family is just what I had always wished for in healthcare providers but have never experienced until now.
