Dr. Matthew Fisel, ND

Qualifications, Experience and Affiliations

While working towards his B.S. in Biology at Indiana University in Bloomington, IN, Dr. Fisel began to understand that medicine could be so much more than just using drugs to treat symptoms and diseases.  He decided to seek out alternatives to conventional medical school, and soon discovered the philosophy of naturopathic medicine.  It seemed like the perfect career path: a doctor who is trained to use both conventional and traditional approaches so that patients can have choices in their healthcare needs.  Upon making this discovery, Dr. Fisel knew without a doubt that becoming a naturopathic physician was the path for him.  He chose to do his medical studies at the National College of Naturopathic Medicine, which is the oldest accredited naturopathic college in the country.  After graduating and receiving his license, he started his own practice, Mindful Medicine, LLC, in the Connecticut town of Norwalk.
