Dr. Brody learned the approach to healthy living from his father, a nutritionist, and so it is mainstream medicine to him. He didn’t realize his desire to become a naturopathic physician until his experience as a teacher’s assistant at a local high school. It was this experience working with special needs children that led him to his new passion- helping people. He was disheartened seeing his students on a plethora of medication with only 25% of them actually gaining any benefit. This was the spark that prompted him to return to school and later attend Naturopathic Medical School at the University of Bridgeport.
