How is a Naturopathic Doctor trained and licensed?
All naturopathic doctors must graduate from a federally accredited 4-year naturopathic medical school and pass a national board exam called NPLEX before becoming licensed. NPLEX follows the same standards as the National Board of Medical Examiners, the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners and the National Board of Osteopathic Medical Examiners.
