“Having struggled through health issues of my own, I know the feeling of having ailing health and being desperate to get help. At my lowest point when nothing seemed to work, I turned to holistic medicine and it truly changed my life. This is the very reason why I became a Naturopathic Doctor and Acupuncturist.

FAQs
Are Naturopathic Doctors Licensed in Ontario?
Naturopathic Doctors are regulated in Ontario under the 1925, Drugless Therapy Act and are registered (licensed) by the Board of Directors of Drugless Therapy Naturopathy (BDDT-N). The BDDT-N ensures that Naturopathic Doctors are properly qualified to practice. In 2007, Ontario’s new Naturopathy Act received final approval which will move the regulation of Naturopathic Doctors under the Regulated Health Professions Act joining all other regulated health professions.
Is Naturopathic Medicine covered by OHIP?
Naturopathic Medicine is not covered by OHIP but by most extended health insurances
Do I need a Referral to see a Naturopathic Doctor?
Generally no, unless your extended health insurance requests a referral.
