Kierstin DeWitt, ND, RAc

Dr. DeWitt was born and raised in Port Huron, MI. She graduated from Central Michigan University with a B.S. in Dietetics and a minor in Entrepreneurship in 2013. Upon nearing graduation, she began to search for further education in nutrition, leading her to find out about Naturopathic Medicine which resonated with her philosophy in root-cause wellness. She went on to Naturopathic Medical school at National University of Health Sciences (NUHS) in 2014. During her time in school, she participated on a medical brigade in Nicaragua as a part of Natural Doctors International (NDI). It was on this trip that she was introduced to the treatment capacity of acupuncture, after which she decided to dual-degree and begin the Master of Acupuncture program at NUHS. In addition to NDI medical brigades, she spent two weeks with NUHS’s first study abroad program in Zauzhaung, China where she was able to shadow specialty doctors and practice Traditional Chinese Medical techniques at an integrative hospital for Chinese and Western Medicine. After completing her year-long internships at the NUHS Whole Health Center as well as rotations with the Salvation Army of Chicago, she graduated from both degrees in 2018. She returned to Michigan in 2019 after much restorative travel, hiking, and camping. Dr. DeWitt currently holds her Acupuncture registration from Michigan and is a NCCAOM diplomate.

She spends her free time outdoors, hiking, camping, reading, exercising, learning, and enjoys hobbies of gardening, photography, drawing and painting.

Note about naturopathic medicine:

Naturopathic Medicine is holistic primary care medicine that supports and directs the mind and body’s innate ability to heal.  Currently, Michigan does not recognize Naturopathic medicine as primary care, though it is licensed in 18 states and Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.  Thus, in Michigan, Dr. Wong and Dr. DeWitt do not practice primary care medicine. Naturopathic medicine focuses on wellness and disease prevention.  Its treatment approach applies diet therapy, exercise, lifestyle hygiene, nutrient therapy, botanicals, and homeopathy, all of which Dr. Wong can provide in Michigan.  To learn more about the scope of naturopathic medicine, click here.
