NATUROPATHIC MEDICINE

As a Naturopathic Doctor, I have received clinical training allowing me to:

• take a comprehensive medical history

• perform physical exams

• recommend lab testing or further investigations if necessary

• make diagnoses 

​

Approach to health:

• emphasis on diet and lifestyle 

• recognizes the role of mental-emotional factors 

• is extremely comprehensive. It evaluates all factors contributing to health such as nutritional status, sleep quality, immune function, gut health, hormonal health, etc. 

• is pro-active by promoting health and strengthening the body to prevent future disease

​

Naturopathic Medicine:

• can treat a variety of health conditions

• can be used alongside medications 

• can provide answers for bothersome, vague symptoms

• can help reduce side effects from medications

• uses longer appointment visits to thoroughly explore health concerns

• is not trying to replace your medical doctor 

​

Collaboration:

As a Naturopathic Doctor, I've had different training and education compared to a Medical Doctor. I see this as an advantage when collaborating patient care - two heads are often better than one. I offer a different perspective to health and collaborate openly with all of my patients' health care providers.
