Dr. Stephen Nenninger is a Licensed Naturopathic Medical Doctor. That means that he attended a federally accredited Naturopathic Medical School. He attended the National College of Naturopathic Medicine in Portland Oregon from 1991 to 1995. There he developed a deep interest in microbiology and homeopathic medicine. He became a Connecticut State Licensed Naturopathic Doctor in 1995. At the same time he became a New York State Licensed Nutritionist in 1995 also since his education qualified him for the license and since at that time in New York, and still in New York, there is no license for Naturopathic Doctors.

In 2005 Dr. Nenninger became a Licensed Naturopathic Medical Doctor in the State of Arizona. His Arizona practice allowed for a more comprehensive clinical practice because Arizona had a greater scope of practice and Naturopathic Medical Doctors could do more diagnostic testing there, make a more comprehensive set of diagnoses, and also prescribe a subset of conventional pharmaceutical drugs that some of the more chronic or difficult cases needed.

He obtained his California license in 2009 to attend to a few very special clients that required travel to the West coast. From that point he has continued to have an active practice in California.

All naturopathic licensing exams are rigerous multi-day exams that text and confirm and applicants proficieny in both Western medicine, including diagnosis and prognosis, physiology, biochemisty and anatomy and then including all of the naturopathic specialties such as naturopathic spinal and extremity adjustment, Eastern, Western and Asain herbal medicines, Homeopathic Medicine, nutritional medicine and a number of other more esoteric therapies, that are simply included because they work. Naturopathic medical education and licensure is a comprehensive, intensive, and mentally, emotionally and physically challenging process.

All of this process is combined with Dr. Nenninger’s 30 years of practice experience with thousands of patients. His practice has been generated by word-of-mouth with successful clients that have filled his practices.

Over the last decade Dr. Nenninger has specialized in Helminthic Therapy.
