Eckel is the best health practitioner I've ever seen hands down. When I came to my first appointment I was so sick and had seen at least 10 doctors while only getting sicker and spending fruitless money. From the moment I met him, Dr. Eckel has been kind, attentive, realistic, and dedicated. At first I was coming into the office twice a week and barely surviving my life.

I have just been given the "Camp Nature Cures Experience "at age 81 for mental decline. I flew in from Kauai for five days to be Cared for by Dr Gregg Eckel and Dr. Johnathan Nadal. I could not have been more PLEASED! The entire experience was upbeat with loving care from the entire staff at Nature Cures Clinic on SW Taylor St in Portland OR. It was a two part procedure a few days apart administered in the most Kind and Thoughtful Upbeat Way one could imagine.

It was almost entirely painless with just slight discomfort and no after effects. I'm so happy I made this choice with these two amazing Doctors and assistants. July of 2021. Nature Cures Clinic, LLC SW Taylor St. Suite 330, Portland Or. Dr. Greg Eckel is a Naturopathic Dr. licensed acupuncturist, and Brain Regenerative Specialist He and Dr. Johnathan Nadal were Outstanding. Jan Muller.

I've used Nature Cures Clinic for many years and have also received acupuncture from Dr. Eckel. Dr. Eckel and his team really take the time to get to know you and your unique needs, making you feel comfortable from day 1. They are both personable and knowledgeable and work to get to the source of any issues. The entire staff is super passionate about what they do and you know they are looking out for your best interest.

Dr. Greg Eckel is probably the best natural path doctor I've ever worked with. This man REALLY cares. I went there to address my insomnia, back aches, diet, asthma and nutrition and he's addressing not just those issues but my entire body as a whole. I'm healthier, I'm off medications, and instead he creates a blend of amazing Chinese herbs that have me emotionally balanced, sleeping at night and focused during the day.

I receive acupuncture and chiropractic services when possible. Dr. Eckel never makes me feel crazy, he's always supportive and shares new possibilities of addressing my well-being naturally, in ways I've never thought of. Truly, He just may be a Miracle in disguise. I'm very blessed to have found this office. They are professional, pleasant but most of all dedicated to their clients. Thank You Nature Cures.

Too whom it may concern; Dr. Eckel is the absolute best! My first experience with nature's cures clinic was about 7 years ago. I was new to holistic health and to be honest just stumbled on his practice. I was at a point in my life when I knew I had to make a change, I had went to just about every pulmonary doctor in Portland and not only was my chief problem not getting any better but my heart began to be affected by my sleep apnea.

The 15 minute appointments were just not cutting it anymore. My initial consult with Dr. Eckel was amazing, the appointment was very thorough, comprehensive, and very insightful. We touched on what felt like everything from foods that work well with my blood type, to what fecal matter tells you about your health. To even orthostatic hypertension and how that ties in to the adrenal system.

The things we discussed stood out to me because it was the first time that I felt like a doctor was trying to explain things in a way that I can understand it. I was also blown away by the personalized plan that Dr. Eckel established for me, that touched on diet, herbal supplements, acupuncture points and exercises that I can do at home that will improve my situation.

To me having a doctor work with me, taking a collaborative, respectful, symptom centered approach comes second to none. I recommend Dr. Eckel to anybody who is going thru something and feeling like doctors don't have their best interest in mind, or that they might be all alone and don't know who to trust. If this is you give him a try you will not be dissatisfied.

I was recently treated by Dr. Eckel and his staff. I have arthritis in both knees and had seen several doctors for evaluation and had been told that ultimately I would have to have knee replacements done. I had done extensive research regarding stem cell treatment and decided that anything to avoid surgery was worth it. My first visit with Dr. Eckel convinced me that his treatment regimen was the most complete and would give me the best chance of a full recovery.

From the moment I entered his clinic, I was impressed with the professionalism of his staff, and facility. He answered all of my questions, went over expectations of results, and proceeded to do the injections. He then did an acupuncture session which was followed by a hyperbaric chamber session. His blend of Eastern and Western medicine made complete sense to me. He and his staff continue to follow up with me. I could not be more pleased.

Dr. Eckel is the best health practitioner I've ever seen hands down. When I came to my first appointment I was so sick and had seen at least 10 doctors while only getting sicker and spending fruitless money. From the moment I met him, Dr. Eckel has been kind, attentive, realistic, and dedicated. At first I was coming into the office twice a week and barely surviving my life. Now, 7 months later, I'm only coming in once a month because I'm busy living my life!

I can't express how wonderful this experience has been physically, emotionally, and spiritually. It's a joy to watch someone truly fulfill their life's calling and surely Dr. Eckel is doing just that. His assistant Allyson is wonderful and sweet. She is peaceful and adept at acupuncture. Chelsy the front office manager is a bright and welcome face greeting you in a healing space. This is what healthcare should be like everywhere.

Dr. Eckel changed my life for the better. When I first saw him I was incredibly skeptical that anyone could help me. I had been to so many different doctors over the previous 14 years that could not get me better. He thought outside the box and put me on a year plan. He helped me learn about allergies I was having to foods that was causing inflammation in my body and poisening me.

I was the healthiest I have ever been in my entire life when I was seeing him regularly and he has changed my life for the better and healed everything that I came to him for. I couldn't be more grateful. I highly recommend you go and listen to what he has to say.

Outstanding care and service! Sariah MacDonald is extremely knowledgeable and sensitive to the needs of her patients. She takes her time to be thorough with exams, explanations, and instructions. Visiting the doctor's office is not usually cause for celebration, but I always leave feeling great about my care and with a smile on my face. I even moved an hour's drive away, and still continue to return here. I would highly recommend Sariah!
