New Business on the Block: The Bush Doctor

The Owner Cleo in Her Juice Bar
I discovered a new business in the neighborhood last week. It’s called The Bush Doctor, it’s located near the corner of Putnam and Tompkins and it’s been open for about a month. It’s a juice bar that also sells coffee, herbal teas, ginger beer, salads and wraps. You can even by for a swig of wheat grass or pure ginger. With the exception of the deliciously sweet cake (pictured above), all of the foods and drinks offered at The Bush Doctor are good for you. The owner, Cleo, is a delightful young woman who told me that the idea to open The Bush Doctor emerged when she found out that her co-worker was diagnosed with high blood pressure. Cleo was a student at the College of New Rochelle, and she was working on a research paper on this condition when she became aware of her co-worker’s health status. This was enough to spark her interest in finding natural remedies for illnesses, which led to her opening a bar that offers healthy foods and herbal drinks.
Cleo has a variety of items in her juice bar. She has a great selection of teas.
She also makes jewelry and sells it here.
I spotted some clothing and DVDs for sale as well.
I love The Bush Doctor logo! It was created by TRUE (of B*SHINE fame).
Stop by The Bush Doctor and try out their juices when you’re on Putnam Avenue. This delightful little juice bar is another great addition to the neighborhood.

I just like to welcome … The Bush Doctor to the Bed-Stuy neighborhood. The Bush Doctor sells my favorite beverages… coffee, herbal teas and ginger beer. The Bush Doctor is a short distant walk from my place. Just another reason why… I love Bed-Stuy!
