Frequently Ask Question
- 1. How long will it take to see a naturopath?
- 2. What are the most common things naturopaths see?
- 3. How long are appointments?
- 4. Will I need to see another clinician as well?
- 5. How often do I need to come?
- 6. What can I expect from a visit?
- 7. Are naturopathic services eligible for insurance coverage?
There is not usually a long wait to get an appointment. I can typically see a new or returning patient within a week of booking.
Some of the most common things that I see are: Chronic Pain , Gastrointestinal issues, Hormonal Imbalance, Cancer, Eczema and other skin conditions, Autistic Spectrum Disorders, Epilepsy, Anxiety, Allergy and General supplement advice.
Initial consults are typically 60 minutes and a follow up typically ranges from 15 to 30 minutes.
It is not necessary to see another clinical as naturopaths are primary care physicians. However, in many situations the patient will benefit from a circle of care with a variety of specialists. In these situations the appropriate referrals are made.
Unless the patient is coming in regularly for a physical treatment such as acupuncture or intravenous therapy, I will usually schedule a follow-up 3-4 weeks after the initial appointment and then every 3-6 months after that.
An initial visit will usually begin with a health history including a discussion of the current concerns. A short physical exam will follow unless the appointment is by phone or virtual. Finally, there is a discussion of the recommended treatment protocol and any lingering questions. Once the appointment is complete I will email the patient a thorough summary of the treatment protocol along with any product recommendations, recommended tests, and dosages.
Yes, while services are not covered under OHIP, most extended health insurance providers have coverage for naturopathic services.?
