Founder & CEO of Independently Healthy Wellness & Coaching

What's a Naturopathic Doctor?

In a world overflowing with health information, most people need a strategy. Knowing what to do is not the same as knowing how to apply it to your own life.


Naturopathic Doctors (NDs) are licensed healthcare professionals who provide primary and adjunctive care for people of all ages and treat both acute and chronic conditions. They are trained to look at the whole person, spend more time understanding your history and goals and create practical, individualized plans.


Naturopathic care often includes:


  • Nutritional support and customized meal planning


  • Lifestyle and stress‑management strategies


  • Targeted supplementation
     
  • Use of both conventional blood tests and advanced functional labs


 

Naturopathic care is not a substitute for conventional medicine; it is designed to work alongside your existing healthcare team. For example, an ND may help you prepare for surgery, support recovery, or optimize your health around ongoing conventional treatments.


Training & Education


To become an ND, candidates typically complete at least eight years of post‑secondary education:


  • A four‑year pre‑medical undergraduate degree (sciences such as anatomy, physiology, biology, chemistry, physics)
     
  • A four‑year, full‑time Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine program at an accredited institution (such as CCNM)
     
  • Successful completion of rigorous licensing board examinations (NPLEX) to qualify for registration
     

This depth of training allows NDs to integrate conventional and functional perspectives for truly comprehensive, whole‑person care.
