at Arizona Natural Health Center
You’ve been told to manage it.
No one has told you why.
Dr. Udell works with complex chronic illnesses - thyroid conditions, lupus, Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis, chronic migraine, fibromyalgia
- for people who have been sick for years and still don’t have an explanation that fits.
Are you tired of being caught in the endless cycle of treating symptoms, only to find temporary relief?
Have you experienced frustration with the impersonal and hurried care you receive in the traditional healthcare system?
Welcome to Arizona Natural Health Center. The practice is small by design and works entirely online — Dr. Udell sees patients across the country from his office in Phoenix.
A Broken Healthcare System
Conventional medicine is very good at naming a disease and medicating its symptoms. It is far less curious about the question underneath: why? Why are you fatigued? Why is your blood pressure or your blood sugar high? Why is your thyroid not working properly?
Ask, and you're often told it's genetic or you're getting old, which most people hear as there is nothing to be done. Or you're told nothing is wrong because your labs are normal. You know something is wrong. You can feel it. Being told otherwise has a name: medical gaslighting.
The problem isn't that doctors are careless. It's that the model treats the symptom as the disease. It isn't. A symptom is what your body is doing about a problem. Until someone asks what that real problem is, the symptom is all there is to treat.
A Healthy Alternative
At Arizona Natural Health Center we believe that true healing begins by validating what you are feeling, listening to what you have to say, and then investigating the root cause of your symptoms rather than rushing to medicate them. Our holistic and integrated approach aims to identify the environmental, lifestyle, and psychological factors that give rise to your symptoms and to empower you with the knowledge and tools that will allow you to restore your body’s natural balance, vitality, and resilience. Through our comprehensive programs, we tackle health challenges head-on, embracing seven core pillars that lay the foundation for optimal wellbeing.
Your Path to Wellness Starts Here
Start with a free consultation call. Dr. Udell will want to hear what has been happening, what you have already tried, and what you are hoping for. It is also how he decides whether he is the right person to help — and he will tell you honestly if he isn't.
Seven Pillars
Dr. Udell's work is organized around seven areas that together determine how well the body can do its job: stress, mindset, nutrition, sleep and circadian rhythm, movement, environment, and social connection. Every plan touches all seven, in the order that matters most for that person.
Meet Dr. Eric Udell
Dr. Eric Udell has been in practice since 2002, working almost exclusively with complex chronic illness — much of it autoimmune. He came to it the hard way, with severe asthma, allergies and psoriasis of his own, and no conventional path that led anywhere except lifelong management. His practice is deliberately small and entirely online.
How the practice works
This is a membership practice rather than a fee-per-visit one. You and Dr. Udell work together month to month: a three-hour first visit, an hour every month after that, and access in between when something flares. Most patients stay for years — the conditions he works with do not resolve in six weeks, and he would rather say so plainly.
There is no contract and no minimum commitment. Thirty days' notice ends it. Fees are discussed on the consultation call.

Transform Your Health with Our 3-Step Onboarding Process: Discover, Evaluate, Thrive
1. Discover
Discover. A free call with Dr. Udell himself, rather than a screener. You describe what has been happening and what you have already tried. He will tell you honestly whether he thinks he can help - and he refers some people elsewhere.
2. Evaluate
Evaluate. Your first visit runs for three hours. You will go through your history, your environment, your diet, your sleep, your stress, and the emotional and spiritual ground most intake forms skip, along with whatever testing the picture calls for.
3. Thrive
Thrive. From there, you work together month to month, for as long as it takes, with access between visits when something flares. The goal is not to manage your condition. It is to change the conditions that produced it, so your body no longer needs the adaptation.
