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.

What types of conditions do Naturopathic Doctors at Ezentials Inc. address?

Dr. Bisaillon's practice addresses a wide range of health concerns, including digestive health issues like IBS, acid reflux, and food sensitivities, as well as hormonal and endocrine conditions such as PMS, menopause, and thyroid imbalances. They focus on identifying and treating the root causes of health issues through therapies like clinical nutrition, botanical medicine, and lifestyle counseling, often with a special interest in preventative medicine and general naturopathic practice. Conditions such as skin issues, fatigue, and stress are also commonly managed.

What is Naturopathic Medicine and how can it help me?

Naturopathic Medicine, practiced by a qualified Naturopathic Doctor, emphasizes holistic, patient-centered care. It aims to support and stimulate the body’s innate healing ability through natural therapies, including dietary adjustments, herbal medicine, and lifestyle modifications. Your Naturopathic Doctor will work with you to develop a personalized plan to improve your health, vitality, and overall wellness, focusing on prevention and addressing the underlying causes of illness.

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

Generally, naturopathic services provided by a Naturopathic Doctor in a private clinic are not covered by Ontario’s OHIP. Patients typically pay out-of-pocket for these services. However, many private and extended health insurance plans offer coverage for licensed Naturopathic Doctors, so it is advisable to check with your insurer to understand your specific benefits and coverage limits.

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

Patients in Ontario can typically see a Naturopathic Doctor directly without a referral, thanks to direct access. However, some private insurance plans may require a referral for reimbursement purposes. It is recommended to verify the requirements of your insurance plan before your first visit.

Does Ezentials Inc. offer direct billing to private insurance companies for Naturopathic services?

Yes, Ezentials Inc. offers direct billing for Naturopathic services to many major private insurance providers. Patients are advised to bring their insurance cards and confirm coverage details, including annual maximums and per-visit limits, directly with their insurance company, as plans can vary. Any remaining costs not covered by insurance are the patient's responsibility.

What are some of the specialized therapies Naturopathic Doctors might offer if they have extra training?

Some Naturopathic Doctors pursue additional certifications for specialized therapies such as Intravenous (IV) nutrient therapy to deliver high doses of vitamins and minerals directly into the bloodstream, prolotherapy for chronic joint and ligament pain, or advanced acupuncture techniques. Availability of these services varies, so inquire if you have a specific therapy in mind.

Approximately how many Naturopathic sessions will I need?

This varies depending on your health concerns. Acute issues may resolve quickly with a few visits, whereas chronic or complex conditions might require ongoing support over several months. Dr. Bisaillon will provide an estimate after your initial consultation and will monitor your progress to adjust your treatment plan accordingly.
