Dr. Shae Parker

Getting Started - Learning and Growing

Dr. Shae Parker, ND, MH, is a passionate and dedicated naturopathic doctor and master herbalist in Indianapolis, Indiana. She earned her bachelor's degree from Saint Louis University with a major in biology and Spanish, a Master's of Business Administration with a concentration in healthcare management from Western Governors University, and a naturopathic doctorate from New Eden School of Natural Health and Herbal Studies. She received her Master Herbalist certification from the Trinity School of Natural Health.

Her interest in natural health began when she unknowingly inherited arthritis and started experiencing knee pain in her 20s. After struggling to find relief through traditional medicine, her co-worker suggested visiting a local Indianapolis naturopathic doctor, Dr. David Morgan. He taught her how to listen to her body and recommended herbs for arthritis and other issues she was not aware existed.

Dr. Shae was so impressed with the results of her herbal protocol that she decided to study and apprentice with Dr. David. Over time, she developed a wealth of knowledge and experience in these areas and eventually partnered with Dr. David at The Word and Herb Clinic.

With 10 years working at formerly The Word and Herb Clinic, Dr. Shae has helped numerous clients achieve their health goals, including overcoming diabetes, achieving weight loss, balancing hormones, regulating menstrual cycles and fertility issues, improving high blood pressure and cholesterol, dissolving kidney stones, cleansing parasites, getting rid of migraines, improving stress management, relieving joint pain and neuropathy, and managing allergies.

Dr. Shae’s Beliefs and Life Guiding Principles

Dr. Shae's approach to natural health is grounded in her Christian beliefs, and she relies on the power of God and His Holy Spirit to guide her in helping people with their health concerns. Her faith and extensive knowledge of natural medicine enable her to provide clients with effective treatments and solutions that promote long-term health and well-being. She believes in addressing the body holistically instead of just the symptoms. She understands that each person is unique and requires a personalized approach to their healthcare needs. This approach has allowed her to customize effective protocols for her clients, resulting in successful outcomes.

She lives by the Golden Rule: treat others as you would like to be treated. This principle guides her interactions with patients, colleagues, and everyone she encounters personally and professionally.

She also believes in leaving spaces better than when she arrived. This principle encompasses a commitment to positively impact the world around her. Whether it's through her work with clients, volunteering in the community, or simply making an effort to reduce her environmental footprint, Dr. Shae strives to make a difference wherever she goes.

Her dedication to these two principles is evident in all aspects of her life, including her work at Living Waters Wellness Clinic.
