Dr. Robyn Hughes is a naturopathic physician who works with a variety of health
concerns, especially in the areas of sports medicine, natural podiatry (foot care),
women’s & men’s health, cardiology, and liver disease.  Treatment techniques are
natural, non-invasive, and highly effective, and they include nutrition, botanical
medicine, lifestyle & exercise counseling, and homeopathy.

Dr. Robyn’s interest in natural medicine began as a child in Colorado, when she was
fascinated by how the body healed itself after a fall or cut. While growing up, she
developed an interest in the complex interaction of mind and body.  

Dr. Robyn received her doctoral degree (ND) from the National College of Natural
Medicine (NCNM) in Portland, Oregon—one of the top accredited schools in the
country for naturopathic medicine. Dr. Robyn received additional homeopathy
training in the 2-year program through the New England School of Homeopathy.
Following medical school, Dr. Robyn worked with renowned sports podiatrist Dr.
Ray McClanahan at Northwest Foot & Ankle in Portland, where she learned about
natural, non-invasive treatment approaches to ailments of the foot, ankle, knee, and
lower back.

In 2009, Dr. Robyn relocated to Durham to join Durham Natural Health along with
her husband, a chiropractic physician, and her dear friend, also a naturopathic
physician. When not working in the practice, Dr. Robyn can be found bicycling in
the beautiful North Carolina hills, organic gardening, playing music, sampling
nutritious and delicious cuisine, and reading novels.

Dr. Robyn’s vision of optimal healthcare is a system that is personalized, holistic,
health-promoting, environmentally-connected, and cost-effective. Her ultimate goal
is to provide the education for patients to achieve optimal health.
