I'm not the type to buy into "NEW AGE" weird stuff but the health care from traditional Doctors leaves alot of room for improvement IMO.
Tell the Doctor your not feeling right, something has changed, this that...
What do they do ? They write you a prescription every time. Maybe we need better traditional Doctors.
When I booked this appointment I was told to stop by and pick up a detailed questionnaire that would take an hour to fill out.
My initial consult will take 1.5 hrs, that with the questionnaire would be more time than my Doctor has spent on me in 15 years.
Why would I waste my time and money on a Consultation with a Naturopathic Doctor if my traditional western Doctor was doing a good job?
Here in BC they need alot of schooling, more than I thought.
What kind of education do Naturopathic Doctors Have?

Naturopathic doctors have completed a minimum of 3 years of university courses with pre-requisites for the ND program. They also have graduated from a 4 year program from an accredited naturopathic medical school that includes roughly 1500 hours of basic and clinical sciences, 1900 hours of standard medical therapeutics (e.g. pharmacology, family medicine, internal medicine etc.) and extensive training in naturopathic treatments. ND’s in BC have passed 2 sets of licensing exams as well as BC provincial board exams.
