Timothy Marando, ND, DC -
Naturopathic and Chiropractic Medicine Timothy Marando, ND, DC, joined a sports medicine practice with his brother, Dr. Paul Marando (another NUHS DC grad). Dr. Marando says his dual degree in naturopathic medicine helps him with athletes who come in with chronic underlying conditions in addition to sports injuries.

Katie Borchert, ND, MSOM -
Naturopathic and Oriental Medicine Dr. Katie Borchert has both an ND and MSOM degree from NUHS. She currently works in suburban Chicago at an interdisciplinary chiropractic clinic and a therapeutic massage center that incorporates clinical services. Katie says, "I'm very happy I chose a dual degree in oriental medicine, as the scope of practice under my acupuncture license is very close to what we do in naturopathic medicine." She hopes to expand her practice in the future, integrating acupuncture and holistic therapy with dental services. |
