General Information

Our clinic offers a natural medicine pharmacy for the convenience of our patients. Ensuring the quality and effectiveness of the products we prescribe is paramount to us. To uphold these standards, we source our products from manufacturers who furnish certificates of analysis from independent laboratories. These certificates certify that each product aligns with our strict criteria: meeting the strength and potency indicated on the label, free from rancidity, and devoid of contaminants, including heavy metals. This is our clinic's standard requirement for pharmacological quality assurance.

Purchasing items at our clinic is optional and we will be happy to work with you to purchase recommended items from our local nutrition store in Falmouth, Vital Nutrition. http://www.vitalnutritioncapecod.com/

We recommend you contact your insurance provider prior to visiting us to learn if they cover naturopathic medicine. We hope that you would consider our services well-worth the out of pocket expense. The cost of natural health care now is far less than the cost of poor health later.

We require payment at the time of service to keep our operating costs down and thus keep our fees fair and reasonable. We will give you an invoice from our office to submit your insurance provider for reimbursement.

A naturopathic doctor has a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine (ND) degree from a four-year graduate level naturopathic medical college. In states where they are regulated, naturopathic doctors must pass a national examination, kept their state license current with yearly continuing education, and their actions are subject to review by a State Board of Examiners.

Naturopathic doctors (NDs) are trained primary care physicians that specialize in natural medicine. They are educated in the conventional medical sciences, but they are not medical doctors (MDs). Naturopathic physicians treat disease and restore health using therapies from the sciences of clinical nutrition, herbal medicine, homeopathy, physical medicine, exercise therapy, counseling, acupuncture, natural childbirth and hydrotherapy. NDs tailor these approaches to the needs of an individual patient. Naturopathic doctors cooperate with all other branches of medical science, referring patients to other practitioners for diagnosis or treatment when appropriate.

In practice, naturopathic doctors perform physical examinations, laboratory testing, gynecological exams, nutritional and dietary assessments, metabolic analysis, allergy testing, and other diagnostic tests. They are the only doctors clinically trained in the use of a wide variety of natural therapeutics. They combine and tailor these treatments to the needs of the individual based on the philosophy that acknowledges the patient as a participant.

NDs are part of a medical movement that is shifting our scientific model to focus on systems and function to solve disease and symptoms. This model provides a way of understanding all the influences on our biology – lifestyle, environment and genetics.
