Rivercreek Wellness

Overview

• Rivercreek Wellness is a naturopathic medicine practice focused on personalized holistic care for chronic illnesses, autoimmune diseases, and complex conditions like Lyme disease, mold illness, fatigue, and autism. Led by Dr. Julie George, it emphasizes finding root causes rather than symptom management, offering both TeleHealth (primary) and limited in-person visits.
• The overall atmosphere is compassionate and patient-centered, creating a supportive journey toward long-term healing. Patients describe it as a place where they are truly listened to, contrasting with conventional medicine’s dismissals. The experience promotes empowerment through education, sustainable lifestyle changes, and tailored plans, fostering restoration, options, and naturopathic principles like RESTORATION (healing chronic symptoms) and mindfulness for emotional balance.
