MD—ND: Medical Assessments and Health Management

MD—ND is a team approach to your health that combines the expertise of a Medical Doctor with that of a Naturopathic Doctor. While both of these professionals are trained as primary care physicians, they each have their own unique strengths. With the MD—ND team approach, you will receive a health assessment and plan that is both holistic and evidence-based, and you will leave with the feeling that all areas of your health have been addressed.

Comprehensive Assessments:

Your comprehensive assessment includes an unhurried visit with both doctors and includes evaluations that are focused toward the early detection and prevention of disease, as well as the enhancement of your existing state of health and physical fitness. You can choose our Comprehensive Health Assessment package or you can have your doctors tailor an assessment specific to your needs and values. Testing could include screens for cardiovascular disease, fitness testing, hormone testing, or blood and urine tests for nutritional status.

Consultation

Once both physicians have received results from all of your tests, they will consult with each other in order to create your health plan.

Health Plan

Your health plan has the potential to be extremely diverse and could include medication schedules, preventive testing, botanical medicines, nutritional interventions, an exercise program, stretches, physical therapies, acupuncture, cognitive and behavioural treatments, or massage. Your return visits and timeline for improvement are outlined from the beginning.

Long Term Health Management

Most importantly, your care is well managed over time, and you get to appreciate how much your health has improved from visit to visit. Our team always has your long term health goals in mind, and we help you access the people and tools you need to reach them.
