Dr. Stacey Kargman - Maryland Natural Health Center

Maryland Natural Health Center is an integrative naturopathic and acupuncture practice in Baltimore, Maryland, led by Dr. Stacey Kargman, NMD, LAc. Dr. Kargman is described as the only combination naturopathic doctor and acupuncturist in Baltimore, with over 25 years of clinical experience. The practice also includes Dr. Sharon Gorenstein, PhD, a licensed psychologist who offers integrative psychological services.

The practice takes a root-cause approach, treating the body as a system rather than focusing on individual symptoms, and uses advanced lab testing to investigate underlying contributors to illness, including food sensitivities that may not appear on standard tests. Specialty areas include wholistic gastroenterology, women’s health and fertility support, endocrinology and hormone balancing, naturopathic psychiatry and integrative psychology, and headache and pain management. Conditions addressed include thyroid disorders, Hashimoto’s disease, autoimmune conditions, IBS, anxiety, depression, fatigue, and food sensitivities.

Services include acupuncture, allergy testing and elimination, botanical medicine, homeopathy, clinical nutrition, Ericksonian hypnotherapy, craniosacral therapy, and integrative psychological support. Both in-person and virtual appointments are available. Fees are paid at the time of service, and patients may submit for insurance reimbursement on their own. Blue Cross/Blue Shield has been known to reimburse a portion of visits. Dr. Gorenstein is a Blue Cross/Blue Shield provider. Both Dr. Kargman and Dr. Gorenstein offer a free 10-minute introductory phone call to determine fit before scheduling.
