Meet Dr. Lori DiBacco, Naturopathic Doctor

Root-cause, whole-person care from an experienced New Hampshire naturopathic doctor.

Meet Dr. Lori DiBacco

With 20 years of experience treating people of all ages with acute and chronic ailments, especially those not easily treated by conventional medicine, Dr. Lori DiBacco can truly change your life.  She uses Naturopathic and integrative medicine to combine the best of ancient traditions with the latest in evidence-based medicine, both natural and conventional.  A popular term that incorporates similar principles is Functional medicine.  Naturopathic Doctors do not often use that term, because what we do is already individualized medicine highly focused on the interconnected features of the body’s systems.  

With all of her patients, Dr. Lori DiBacco takes the time to really understand a patient’s experience of illness.  She offers a variety of investigative and therapeutic tools to understand the “why” of disease, and creates comprehensive and individualized plans to restore each patient’s optimal health. Dr. Lori DiBacco firmly believes in the simplicity of Naturopathic philosophy: to focus on the whole person, to identify and treat the cause of disease, and to work with the laws of nature to bring about the most rapid and complete cure.

Dr. DiBacco believes in integrative medicine, blending traditional approaches with the latest in evidence-based medicine.

  • “Special thanks to Dr. Lori DiBacco. I am a long-term sufferer of autoimmune issues. I have worked with many doctors and several different medications. After 12 frustrating years, I found Dr. Lori DiBacco. Her approach is very deliberate. She reviewed all my notes as well as my bloodwork. To my surprise, she performed an in-depth analysis and identified a strategy. A comprehensive approach including prescriptions and supplements addressed the root cause. My energy levels are back, and I have lost weight. Several months later, I feel better than I have in years. (I'd like to add that this patient’s hair loss was reversed and now he must shave again!)”

I love that time is taken to get to know the patient and treat the ailment, not from a strictly medical standpoint, but also from an emotional and nutritional view. I recommend that anyone who has struggled with feeling a personal connection with a doctor to come here to reestablish their faith in health and healing.”

  • “I have had serious digestive problems for years, which prescription drugs were not adequately treating. Now, with Dr. Lori DiBacco’s diet and supplement regimen, I’m completely off the drugs, and am feeling better than I have in years. I’m now eating and absorbing food well enough to regain my energy, and I’m completely comfortable.”

  • “I am so happy to find out that I’m not crazy and that there is help to make me feel like a person again. Dr. Lori DiBacco is wonderful. After being told by my doctor that this is how my life will be now, I was very discouraged. Dr. Lori DiBacco has given me my hope back again; I cannot thank her enough.”

  • “I have been working with Dr. Lori DiBacco for over a year to treat multiple related issues. She is the most thorough doctor I have ever met. I love how she is both a kind and caring person and a great listener, as well as how she approaches my issues like a true scientist. She moves me forward with the right supplements, and simultaneously, does not change too many variables so we can see what is going on at each stage of treatment. Love her! Love her approach! Smart, smart lady :)!”
