Dr. Raymond Chao is a Naturopathic Medical Doctor, Chiropractor, and Acupuncturist who is passionate about treating the person—not just the disease. He integrates Naturopathic Medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and both Eastern and Western herbal therapies with modern diagnostics to create a comprehensive, root-cause approach to care.

He specializes in gastrointestinal disorders, including Crohn’s disease, Ulcerative Colitis, IBD, chronic pain, and sports medicine. He believes many chronic conditions originate in the gastrointestinal tract.

Dr. Chao’s passion for Alternative Medicine began in his teenage years after being diagnosed with idiopathic urticaria (a chronic rash of unknown origin). When faced with the prospect of lifelong antihistamines, he chose to explore integrative therapies that addressed underlying imbalances and restored his health.

He holds a Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine, a Doctorate in Chiropractic Medicine, and a Master’s degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. He completed a CNME Residency focused on Functional and Integrative Medicine, Sports Medicine, and Injection Therapy.

In addition to his clinical training, Dr. Chao has worked under registered dietitians in medical settings, developing therapeutic meal plans and supporting nutrition-based interventions. He has also provided athlete care at endurance and sporting events and presented clinical case studies for professional education.

Outside of practice, Dr. Chao enjoys resistance training, cooking, spending time with his family and dog, and continuing his professional development.
