PHOENIX, AZ – (APRIL 1, 2011) — For the second consecutive year, in the April, 2011 issue of Phoenix Magazine, Theresa Ramsey, NMD has been voted on by her peers as one of the “Top Docs”.

Dr. Ramsey is one of the Top Doc’s in Naturopathic Medicine. This specialty has only been included in the Phoenix Magazine Top Doc issue for two of the seventeen years. Dr. Ramsey’s primary focus is on exploring the root cause of dis-ease and illness with an emphasis on elegant aging through Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) as popularized by Suzanne Somers, nutritional supplements, food allergy testing, and developing a healthy mindset. She believes in the imperativeness of bridging the gap between allopathic and naturopathic medicine through education for people to achieve abundant health and wellness and to know all of their options. As frequently seen on Oprah, The Doctors, and Dr. Oz, Dr. Ramsey has been a proponent and teacher of elegant aging for 16 years.

“There is no career that could come close to the rewards of practicing Functional Medicine. The medicine itself is inspiring and rewarding to patients who actively choose enhancing their own wellness. When I was a nurse, especially in Open Heart Surgery and ICU, I felt like we were all heroes, saving lives. This may be true, but as I witness people not only preventing the result of Intensive Care or Heart Surgery, but also grabbing hold of their vitality so gracefully – that is more gratifying than any form of medicine. Thank you all who have given me such tremendous practice. Thank you for your faith in me, but more importantly in your faith in you. Thank you colleagues who believe in me as a leader in the profession as well. It means more to me than you know,” says Dr. Ramsey. Her deepest desire as a physician is to inspire people to become an active participant in their own healthcare through education and accountability.

Physicians are selected annually through a peer review survey of 5,000 Valley Physicians who have the medical expertise to discern who is best in each specialty area. Doctors are asked to nominate their peers who, in their educated judgment, are the best in their field and related fields.

In the spirit of educating and providing tools for healthy living, Dr. Ramsey is available for speaking engagements, book signings, and TV and Radio interviews.
