Dr. David Buscher - The Northwest Center for Environmental Medicine

The Northwest Center for Environmental Medicine is a practice in Redmond, Washington, led by David Buscher, MD. Dr. Buscher has been in active practice for over 40 years, with an integrative and functional medical practice focusing on complementary, nutritional, and environmental aspects of treating medical conditions. He is board-certified by the American Board of Environmental Medicine and is a fellow and past president of the American Academy of Environmental Medicine, where he served as a long-term faculty member and program director for the basic instructional courses that train physicians in environmental medicine. The practice also includes Molly Jensen, a licensed therapist with multiple graduate degrees, who provides individual, couples, and family counseling on-site.

This practice is among the most directly relevant listings for people dealing with environmental illness and chemical sensitivities. Dr. Buscher trained under Theron Randolph, MD, known as the “Father of Environmental Medicine,” completing a training fellowship at the Human Ecology Research Foundation, and subsequently completed two years of residency training in Occupational Medicine at the University of Washington. The practice explicitly frames environmental medicine around the concept that what people eat or are exposed to in their environment can have a direct and profound effect on health, and that the goal is to identify and eliminate the cause of a health problem rather than manage symptoms with medication. Conditions treated include multiple chemical sensitivity, mycotoxin illness, mold-related illness, mast cell activation syndrome, sick building syndrome, complex allergies, inhalant allergies, fatigue conditions, fibromyalgia, autoimmune conditions, candida-related complex, cardiovascular conditions, and cognitive decline.

Services include comprehensive in-house allergy testing covering pollens, foods, mold, dust, animal dander, and chemicals; desensitization via optimal-dose immunotherapy (injection or sublingual); Low-Dose Antigen (LDA) therapy; urinary mycotoxin testing and treatment; intravenous nutrition; neural therapy; trigger point injections; External Enhanced Counterpulsation (EECP); nutritional status testing; and adrenal stress testing. The website does not specify telehealth availability, insurance acceptance, HSA/FSA eligibility, or whether a free discovery call is offered; prospective patients are encouraged to contact the practice directly.
