Common Questions
I often get asked if naturopathic medicine is covered under provincial health services. Unfortunately, the answer is no (although I wish it was covered!).
The good news - Naturopathic medicine can be billed under extended benefits/health insurance such as Blue Cross, Canada Life, SunLife, Manulife, etc.
I offer direct billing to the majority of health insurance companies for BC patients. Coming soon for NS patients.
Barriers to Care
If you are on a fixed income or from a low income household please feel free to reach out so we can work together on removing any barriers to care. I always do my best to make sure patients have a seamless and positive clinical experience.
Coverage
Cancellation Policy
Our cancellation policy allows you to cancel or reschedule an appointment 24 hours beforehand free of charge. After the window has passed a fee will be charged to compensate for the time preparing for the case and appointment time lost that another patient could have used. Emergency exceptions can be made.
What treatments do you use?
I commonly use nutrition, herbal medicine, specific, evidence based supplements and pharmaceuticals in a treatment plan. If you see me in person I may do acupuncture, dry needling and orthopedic testing to help depending on the concerns.
