While she is not an MD, she works integratively with conventional physicians to ensure patients receive safe, evidence-based care that bridges holistic and traditional medicineHer approach combines evidence-based natural therapies with modern diagnostic tools to uncover and address the root causes of illness — whether hormonal, metabolic, infectious, or environmental. This allows patients to experience a truly personalized path to healing, where natural medicine and conventional science work together to restore balance and optimize long-term wellness.

When Dr. Hujer talks about treating the “root cause,” it means she looks deeper than the symptoms themselves. Instead of simply masking fatigue, pain, or anxiety, she asks why those symptoms are happening — exploring factors such as nutrition, hormones, gut health, toxins, stress, and lifestyle.

For example, chronic fatigue might not just mean you need more sleep — it could be linked to hormone imbalance, nutrient depletion, mitochondrial dysfunction, or environmental influences. By identifying what’s truly driving these patterns, Dr. Hujer creates personalized, natural treatment plans that help your body restore balance and heal for good — not just for the moment.

Dr. Nicole Hujer’s path to naturopathic medicine began with her own health challenges. Early in her career, she struggled with chronic digestive issues that conventional medicine couldn’t explain. Through years of study, curiosity, and persistence, she discovered that addressing her own food sensitivities and gut health was the key to restoring her energy and well-being.

That experience ignited her passion for nutrition, metabolic health, and root-cause medicine — and ultimately inspired her to dedicate her practice to helping others uncover what’s holding them back from feeling their best.

Today, as a Licensed Naturopathic Medical Doctor (NMD), Registered Dietitian (RD), and Board-Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS), Dr. Hujer blends the science of modern medicine with the wisdom of nature to guide patients toward lasting healing. She believes that every symptom is a message from the body — and when we listen deeply and treat the root cause, true wellness can emerge.

Your first visit is an in-depth conversation — typically lasting 60 to 90 minutes — where Dr. Hujer takes the time to truly understand you. She’ll review your medical history, current symptoms, lifestyle, diet, and health goals, creating space to connect the dots between different aspects of your health.

Based on your needs, Dr. Hujer typically begins by recommending baseline labs to evaluate metabolic health, thyroid function, nutrient status, methylation, and more. Depending on your symptoms, she may also suggest additional specialized testing — such as a stool analysis, DUTCH hormone test, methylation panel, micronutrient panel, mycotoxin screen, or Total Tox panel — to gain deeper insight.

Patients often share that it’s the first time a doctor has truly listened and helped them feel seen, understood, and empowered in their healing journey.

Naturopathic and functional medicine care in Nevada is typically cash-based, as most insurance plans do not cover these services.

Ozone therapy introduces a medical form of oxygen (O₃) into the body to stimulate healing, reduce inflammation, and improve cellular energy. This advanced therapy works by enhancing oxygen utilization, modulating the immune system, and activating the body’s natural antioxidant and mitochondrial pathways — helping you repair and restore from the inside out.

Food sensitivities can quietly drive inflammation, fatigue, brain fog, headaches, skin issues, and digestive symptoms. Unlike food allergies, which cause immediate reactions, sensitivities often create delayed or chronic inflammation that can be difficult to trace without proper testing.

Once those triggers are identified, she designs a personalized, anti-inflammatory nutrition plan to help calm the immune response, restore gut health, and improve energy and mental clarity.

Dr. Hujer believes that true healing begins with the gut and metabolism – the body’s two primary systems for energy, detoxification, and repair. When these systems are balanced, every other aspect of health – including hormones, mood, and immunity – can function optimally.

The gut plays a central role in regulating inflammation, absorbing nutrients, and maintaining a strong immune response. When the microbiome becomes imbalanced or inflamed, it can contribute to symptoms such as fatigue, hormone disruption, weight gain, anxiety, and chronic inflammation. That’s why stool testing is one of Dr. Hujer’s most important tools – it provides a detailed look at the microbiome, digestion, absorption, pathogens, and inflammation, revealing the true root causes of imbalance.

By addressing gut health and metabolic function together, Dr. Hujer helps patients restore energy production, stabilize blood sugar, balance hormones, and reduce inflammation – creating the foundation for long-term, sustainable wellness.

Nutrition is the foundation of every plan Dr. Hujer creates. As both a Registered Dietitian (RD) and Licensed Naturopathic Medical Doctor (NMD), she blends clinical nutrition science with naturopathic principles to address the root causes of chronic illness.
