On my return I spent time in Indonesia and became friends with a physician who informed me about Naturopathic medicine. Treating the underlying cause of disease rather than subsequent side effects made sense to me so I applied to Naturopathic school.<\/p>\n
After completing medical school I did a residency in a primary care setting-was then introduced to some alternative cancer therapies noticing that I could connect with and serve chronically ill patients. I honed in the practice of mind fortitude in chronic illness. A few years into my medical practice my mother was diagnosed with stage 4 gastric cancer. During this time, I was completing my fellowship with the American Board of Naturopathic Oncology while working at Cancer Treatment Centers of America. Helping my mother navigate cancer treatment while working in a Cancer Hospital significantly impacted my outlook on cancer treatment.<\/p>\n
In 2009 I moved to Alaska to provide Naturopathic oncology services at Providence hospital. In 2013 I began working with cancer patients at South Kenai peninsula hospital. Alaska Cancer Treatment Center in Anchorage asked me to join their group in 2015. As a Naturopathic provider I have spent my career working with conventional oncologists using evidence based Natural medicine. Understanding standard Oncology practice helps me to better inform patients regarding the treatment options and potential side effects.<\/p>\n
Dr Markian Babij Completed his medical degree at Southwest College of Naturopathic medicine and health Sciences in Arizona. On his completion he continued his clinical work at a local primary care office and completed his residency during that time. He served chronically ill patients and coordinated his mothers Cancer care while working with Cancer Treatment Centers of America. During his time with CTCA he served as an inpatient hospitalist and chair of the breast cancer working group. Dr Babij completed his fellowship with the Board of Naturopathic Oncology and currently serves our Cancer community with both Conventional support and Natural treatments for chronic illness.<\/p>\n
Dr Babij notes “Practicing medicine is both art and science”. Prior to Alaska Dr Babij worked in medical research specific to natural agents. He has an understanding of conventional oncology care practice and serves patients with a functional medicine approach. In practice “it is my goal to use lifestyle and natural agents to optimize the cellular environment. I partner with my patients to facilitate a unique approach that is patient centered. Keeping patients accountable and informed results in optimized health”<\/p>\n
Dr Babij’s role is to help patients see the truth that underlies a specific health issue, and make a plan to guide patients in a way that fits them uniquely. Dr B has a passion for education and working with groups of people to instill lifelong change.[\/vc_column_text]<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”1956″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_section disable_element=”yes”][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1659985072924{margin-left: 120px !important;border-top-width: 0px !important;border-right-width: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;border-left-width: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 100px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}”]
