Expanding Integrative Oncology Care at Neighborhood Naturopathic: Prescription Options Now Available

A More Active Approach to Cancer Care

A cancer diagnosis changes how you think. You start asking better questions. You look beyond the first answer. You want to understand what else is possible and what the evidence actually supports.

You don’t want to sit on the sidelines of your own care.

At Neighborhood Naturopathic, we have always approached cancer care as a collaboration, working alongside your oncology team to support your body through every phase of treatment. What is changing now is the level of care we can offer within that model.

We are now incorporating prescription-based pharmaceutical options into our integrative oncology approach, giving patients access to an additional layer of evidence-informed medical support that works with conventional treatment.

What We Are Now Offering

These are oral prescription medications. They are established pharmaceuticals with known safety profiles and a growing body of clinical relevance in adjunctive cancer care.

They are selected carefully and used intentionally based on diagnosis, current treatment plan, and overall health picture. We are not applying a standard protocol. We are building a personalized care plan.

The medications we incorporate fall into two primary categories:

Antiviral-Based Therapies

Some medications used in this program have well-established antiviral properties and have also demonstrated cancer cell inhibiting activity in clinical studies.

The relationship between immune function, viral activity, and cancer is an area of growing clinical focus. For select patients, supporting this pathway can be a meaningful part of care.

Metabolic Support in Cancer Care

Cancer is not only a genetic process. It is also a metabolic one.

Cancer cells thrive in environments shaped by blood sugar dysregulation, inflammation, and impaired metabolic function.

This category of support focuses on improving metabolic stability, including blood sugar regulation, blood pressure, and cholesterol.

These factors are part of the cancer care strategy itself.

When These Options Can Be Used

One of the most meaningful aspects of this approach is its flexibility across the cancer journey. These protocols can be incorporated at multiple stages, including early in the diagnostic process as you are building your care plan, during chemotherapy or radiation to support treatment tolerability and recovery, and following active treatment as part of a long-term support and recurrence reduction strategy.

They are selected to work alongside conventional care. Patients who incorporate these options as part of a coordinated plan commonly report better tolerance to treatment, more stable energy between cycles, and stronger overall recovery patterns.

How This Works Alongside Conventional Treatment

A common question among patients exploring adjunctive care is whether additional interventions will interfere with oncology treatment. It is a fair and important question.

The prescription options we offer are chosen for their ability to work synergistically with conventional cancer treatments. They are not intended to replace chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery.

Every recommendation is made with your diagnosis, treatment protocol, and oncology team in mind. Nothing is added to your care plan without careful clinical consideration and coordination when appropriate.

Part of a Comprehensive Integrative Oncology Approach

Prescription medical management is one component of a broader integrative oncology approach at Neighborhood Naturopathic.

Our clinic also offers high-dose intravenous vitamin C through our IV Clinic when clinically appropriate, supported by a growing evidence base related to immune function and treatment tolerability.

We also offer specialty functional testing that provides insight beyond standard oncology labs, allowing us to better understand how your body is functioning and where targeted support will be most beneficial.

Nutritional, lifestyle, and stress support are tailored to your treatment phase and individual health picture.

Together, these tools allow us to build a plan that reflects the full picture rather than just the diagnosis.

Is This the Right Fit?

These options are available to men and women across all cancer types and stages. There is no single profile for who benefits. What matters is how you approach your care.

If you are looking for a clinical team that can engage with you at the level you have been researching, ask the questions you have been carrying, and build a plan that goes beyond standard protocol, this is where we come in.

How to Get Started

There are two ways to begin.

If you are ready to establish care, you can schedule a new patient appointment with one of our naturopathic physicians. We will take a thorough history, review your current treatment plan, and determine which adjunctive options are most appropriate for your individual situation.

If you have specific questions and want to understand what we offer before committing to an appointment, we offer a complimentary 15 minute consultation with one of our doctors. This is the right step for patients who are still gathering information and want to speak directly with a physician before moving forward.

To schedule either option, visit us online or call our clinic at 612-259-8529.

Our Commitment

Our role is to make sure you understand your options and have access to the ones that are appropriate for you.

We work alongside your oncology team, respect the role of conventional treatment, and build plans that support your body through every phase of the process.
