Dr. Jeffrey S. Haskel, DC, PhD

Dr. Jeffrey S. Haskel has practiced Toxicology, Nutritional and Energetic Medicine, along with Functional Neurology Medicine since 1997. He has  a Ph.D. in Holistic Nutrition. At the age of 29 he suffered with a diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome. Barely able to make it out of bed in the morning, he struggled through the day just trying to function. Heeding his mother’s advice, he went to see a Holistic Physician named Dr. Gene Putnam. Using many of the same nutritional, neurological and detoxification strategies that Dr. Haskel uses today, Dr. Putnam guided Dr. Haskel’s body to heal itself. Over the course of a year of treatment, his energy and focus returned! Now, over 20 years have passed and he has maintained a high level of energy and focus. The chronic fatigue became chronic energy!

It was after treating with Dr. Putnam that Dr. Haskel decided to become a Holistic Physician. He attended Life College for his chiropractic degree and went on to Clayton College to obtain a postgraduate degree in Holistic Nutrition. Dr. Haskel believes that God has put an awesome intelligence in the human body, and with gentle guidance, the body can heal itself. Mission Dr. Haskel’s first mission is to restore hope.

All too often, people have lost their sense of hope from having endured numerous experiences with high medical costs, pharmaceutical side–effects, “quick–in–and–out–the–door” treatments, doctors not listening to them, and more, just to end up feeling the same or worse. Looking for the underlying CAUSE(s) vs. just covering up symptoms allows Dr. Haskel to truly begin the healing process.

A wide range of health challenges have shown to respond favorably to Dr. Haskel’s Toxicological, Metabolic and Neurological treatment approaches. These conditions include, but are not limited to: Autism; ADHD/Dyslexia/Learning disabilities; Allergies; Migraines; Hot Flashes; PMS; Fibromyalgia; Depression/Anxiety; Fatigue; Vertigo/Dizziness/Balance issues; Irregular Menstrual Periods; Infertility; Insomnia; Eczema; Chronic Fatigue; Thyroid Issues; Peripheral Neuropathy…and more.
