How does the approach of naturopathic medicine differ?
Our approach differs from what you may have previously experienced in visiting your medical doctor in that: • We spend more time with you and really listen to your health history and particular concerns (most appointment are at least 30 minutes) • We encourage questions and discussion of treatment with our patients. • We do not prescribe drugs and we work with our patients to understand how the medications they currently take may impact their overall health • We do not perform surgery. We believe that with early diagnosis and the use of preventative therapies, surgery can be avoided in most cases. • Our methods are non-invasive and have no harmful side effects. We work together with you as a partner to enhance your overall health.
