Does Canadian Academy of Anti Aging Medicine - Woodbridge offer direct billing to private insurance companies for Naturopathic services?

Yes, Canadian Academy of Anti Aging Medicine - Woodbridge offers direct billing for Naturopathic services to many major private insurance companies.

What is the difference between a Naturopathic Doctor (ND or Naturopathic Doctor) and a Medical Doctor (MD)?

Medical Doctors (MDs) generally use conventional medicine, including prescription drugs and surgery, to treat specific diseases and symptoms. Naturopathic Doctors (Naturopathic Doctors or Naturopathes) take a holistic approach, aiming to identify and treat the underlying cause of health issues using natural therapies such as diet, herbs, homeopathy, and lifestyle changes. Naturopathic Doctors emphasize disease prevention and patient education. While their philosophies differ, Naturopathic Doctors and MDs can complement each other in a patient's overall healthcare plan.

How long do Naturopathic appointments typically last?

Your first Naturopathic visit is comprehensive and usually takes about 60-90 minutes. Subsequent follow-up appointments can vary, typically from 30 to 60 minutes. The length of your appointments will be determined by your Naturopathic Doctor based on your individual needs and treatment plan.

Approximately how many Naturopathic sessions will I need?

The number of Naturopathic sessions required varies greatly depending on the nature and chronicity of your health concerns, your individual health goals, your body's response to treatment, and your commitment to implementing the recommended dietary and lifestyle changes. Your Naturopathic Doctor will discuss a proposed treatment frequency and estimated timeline after your initial assessment and will continually re-evaluate your progress with you.

What kind of lab testing might a Naturopathic Doctor recommend?

Your Naturopathic Doctor may recommend a variety of lab tests to help assess your health. This can range from standard blood work you might get at your family doctor’s office (to check things like nutrient levels, organ function, or inflammation markers) to more specialized functional tests. These specialized tests could look at hormone balance in more detail, identify potential food sensitivities, assess your gut microbiome, or check for environmental toxin exposure. The goal is to get a clearer picture of what's happening in your body to create a more targeted treatment plan.

Is there anything specific I should bring to my first Naturopathic appointment?

It’s helpful to bring any recent lab work (within the last year or two), a complete list of your medications and supplements (including brand and dose), and your extended health insurance information. Some people also find it useful to fill out any intake forms provided by the clinic beforehand to save time during the appointment.

Is Naturopathic Medicine covered by the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?

Naturopathic services provided by a Naturopathic Doctor (ND) in a private clinic are generally not covered by the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP). Patients typically pay out-of-pocket for these services. However, many private and extended health insurance plans offer some coverage for services provided by registered or licensed Naturopathic Doctors. Patients are advised to check with their insurance provider to understand their specific coverage, as it varies significantly between plans.

Do I need a doctor’s referral to see a Naturopathic Doctor in ON?

In Ontario, patients can generally see a Naturopathic Doctor (Naturopath or Naturopathe) directly without a referral from a physician. However, some private or extended health insurance plans may require a referral for reimbursement purposes. It is recommended to verify the specific requirements of your insurance plan before your appointment to ensure coverage.
