FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
Are the services of a Naturopathic Doctor covered by insurance?
Many private and company health insurance plans cover naturopathic treatments. Patients and employers are encouraged to request that their policy include coverage of all naturopathic services.
What is the difference between a Homeopathic and a Naturopathic Doctor?
A Homeopathic Practitioner uses only a homeopathic approach. Naturopathic Doctors, on the other hand, use homeopathic medicine as one of the therapies integrated into a total treatment plan. NDs are the only health care professionals trained in homeopathy as part of their standard educational program and are examined in homeopathy for licensing purposes.
How are Naturopathic Doctors in Ontario trained?
Doctors of Naturopathic Medicine have a minimum of 7 years of training: 3 to 4 years of premedical studies at a university followed by the 4 year intensive full time program at an accredited college of Naturopathic Medicine. The Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in Toronto is the only one in Canada (there are 4 colleges in North America).
After graduating from one of these colleges, the Ontario ND must pass rigorous North American-wide standardized licensing exams to obtain a license. NDs in Ontario are regulated by the Board of Directors of Drugless Therapy-Naturopathy.

What to Expect During an Initial Naturopathic Consultation
During the initial 1 hour consultation, the ND will take a thorough history so that the underlying issues surrounding your condition or concern can be addressed. A physical examination with clothes on (not internal) will also aid the physician in determining what areas need attention to best address the health issues that most concern you. The ND will then determine which lifestyle, nutritional, herbal, homeopathic or other type of therapy may best suit your case at which point, a joint decision with you will be made as to how best to proceed. You are the master of your life! Our goal is to teach you as much as possible to help you reach your health goals!
The follow-up visits are usually ½ hour in length and the 2nd visit will usually be within 2 to 3 weeks of the initial consultation during which time the ND may ask you to get blood tests or other information gathering as well as start the initial treatment protocol. During the second visit a final plan is usually completed and you will not generally need to return for at least another month.
