Dr. Gregory Pais is a Naturopathic Doctor—which means he has gone through an equally rigorous medical training as a regular MD, or Medical Doctor, but with a focus on holistic and complementary treatments. “A New Doc in Town” profiles Gregory Pais, ND (’92), and his Colorado clinic.

“A conventional Medical Doctor works in a flat-earth paradigm,” he says, “to treat the part rather than the whole. A Naturopathic Doctor looks at the whole person, to get an integrated picture of their health and dis-ease.” One thing NDs and MDs do have in common, however, is the Hippocratic Oath: “Above all, do no harm.”
