Does Texas license Naturopaths?
The State of Texas does not license Naturopathic doctors at this time, neither do they regulate the use of the title Naturopathic Doctor. For this reason it is especially important in Texas to ensure that your N.D. is properly trained and holding an active license from a State which offers licensure. Please see www.naturopathic.org for more information. Lack of licensure does not prohibit the practice of Naturopathic medicine, but it does limit what your Naturopath can legally do. Although Dr. Neuzils license (State of Arizona) allows her to diagnose, prescribe pharmaceutical medications, use injectable therapies and perform minor surgery in Arizona, she is unable to offer those services in Texas. This does not affect the quality of care offered, and she can still use all of the alternative medical therapies.
