ABOUT NATUROPATHIC FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE:

Thanks to Google and social media, we are bombarded with constant ‘noise’ about how to be healthy. Today it seems like everyone is a self-claimed health ‘expert’ and it’s becoming more and more difficult to decipher what is true and who to trust to guide you on your personal health journey. Naturopathic doctors are your true holistic health experts. In order to become a Naturopathic Doctor in Canada candidates must complete a minimum 8-year post-secondary education, including a supervised medical internship, and must also pass three North-American standardized licensing exams. Naturopaths are the only health care professionals in Ontario with standardized training in at a doctorate level in integrative health care and our extensive medical education allows us to work with your medical doctors to help you get the most out of your healthcare team. You need an ND if you’re looking for an expert to guide you through a proactive approach to your health and wellness or if you’re lost in the current medical model and feel as though you’re not actually getting any better from your current medications.

Naturopathic doctors combine the wisdom of centuries-old medical traditions with the latest evidence-based medical research to bring their patients a truly holistic, unique and effective approach to healthcare. Naturopaths are educated at a doctorate level, formally-trained in medical sciences, and legally licensed and regulated in Ontario. We spend time with our patients listening to their histories and looking at the interactions between the genetic, emotional, environmental and lifestyle factors that are at the root cause of chronic health issues. In addition to lab testing & primary care assessment, Naturopathic doctors use holistic, nontoxic approaches to healing including clinical nutrition, acupuncture, botanical medicine, supplements, physical medicine and lifestyle counselling to help our patients achieve lasting health.

 

WHAT TO EXPECT

The goal of our signature Replete Reveal / Heal / Seal protocol is to get you well as fast as possible and set you up with the tools and education you need to maintain vibrant replete health for life. Expect that you may be on a few personalized supplements at the beginning of your treatment plan while we’re working on bringing balance back to your body;

  • Initial Visit / Reveal ($235 + individualized testing, if required): The Replete patient care on-boarding process starts with an hour-long comprehensive intake. This appointment involves a thorough exploration of your health, current symptoms and health goals using the replete signature method, along with any relevant in-house testing (in-house testing of adrenals, nutrient status, leaky gut etc. will be included in the price of your visit – if required).
  • Second Visit / Heal ($145): At your Heal visit we’ll deliver and review the personalized performance plan created for you by Dr. Sarah. You’ll leave this appointment with a true understanding of the root cause of your symptoms, and the exact steps you need to take in order to heal. The Heal phase of your care may only require 1 visit, or may be spread out over a series of 1 visit monthly for 3 months depending on the complexity of your case. Your customized functional medicine health protocol may include:
    • Customized prescriptions based on function medicine testing results and your desired health goals
    • Herbal medicine to help you balance your hormones, reset your fertility and clear your skin
    • Vitamins, minerals, and customized nutraceutical prescriptions
    • Acupuncture to regulate hormones / improve skin health
    • Bio-identical hormone therapy (BHRT)
    • Functional food therapy to heal your hormones and skin from the inside out
    • Advanced personalized cycle syncing protocols
    • Lifestyle medicine tailored to your health goals and current symptoms
  • Follow-up Visit / Seal ($110): At your follow-up visit(s) we’ll review your symptoms to assess whether or not your health goals have been met. After your acute concerns have resolved we’ll reassess you goals and lay out your ‘Seal’ / health maintenance protocol. Most patients prefer to check in with us at Replete a few times yearly in the maintenance phase of care to make sure they’re still on track and to address any new health concerns that may arise.

Check with your extended health care benefits prior to booking as some of your visits and testing may be covered by your private insurance (under Naturopathic care). You have benefits? That’s incredible! Consider yourself very lucky as many  patients pay entirely out of pocket for their health care. While some plans are very generous, others only cover a small amount for testing and care; we urge you reframe your health as an investment that will save you thousands of dollars down the road and your insurance coverage as a bonus – not a limiting factor in how committed you are to healing.

If you’re looking for a Naturopath and are ready to start living your most replete life you can book in for a virtual initial consultation or contact us via the contact page on our website for additional information.
