Meet our TEAM
Our team of practitioners treat patients of all ages – from pediatrics to geriatrics. Patients come to see us for many health concerns including hormonal imbalances, pain management, skin conditions, chronic fatigue, digestive health, fertility optimization, stress management and cancer support. Some patients wish to see us to review their current health status, diet and lifestyle, and learn about ways they can continue to stay healthy and prevent disease.
With a whole-person healthcare approach, our practitioners consider all things that influence an individual’s health status including diet and lifestyle choices, current medications and supplements, present illnesses, medical history, environmental exposures, and mental and emotional factors. From this comprehensive perspective of one’s health, individualized treatment plans are provided with the patient’s values in mind. Our naturopathic doctors use evidence based medicine as a foundation for all natural treatment recommendations. At Saskatoon Naturopathic Medicine, we strive to provide our patients with safe, effective, and efficient individualized care.
