Dr. Leslie (ND) answers your questions... Q1. What is Naturopathic Medicine? "Naturopathic medicine is a health care system that combines traditional and natural methods of healing with science-based knowledge of the body. It honors the healing power of nature and treatments are focused on supporting the body's ability to self-heal and auto-regulate. The underlying focus is to address the root causes of dis-ease and to treat the whole person- body, mind, heart, and soul." Q2. What will our relationship as doctor and patient look like? "In my practice I honor the interconnectedness of physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of health and the importance of supporting individuals in each of these areas. What this looks like will vary with each person, and my intention is to support each patient where they are while holding space for the potential and possibilities of where they would like to be. I blend my academic background and scientific understanding of the body with an intuitive approach that acknowledges the importance of individualized medicine. At the root of my medicine is a commitment to help patients come back into a more harmonious and trusting relationship with their own body. The treatments I utilize are gentle and safe, with a focus on nutrition, herbal medicine, supplements, and lifestyle counselling. My belief is that you are the expert of your own body. I am here as a guide, not as an authority. I strive to offer treatments that feel empowering and accessible to each patient and I would be honored to work with you and offer support on your path." Q3. Is Naturopathic Medicine covered by OHIP? "Naturopathic visits are not covered by OHIP, however, most insurance companies offer complete or partial coverage for visits. Please check with your insurance provider. She Thrives offers direct billing." Q4. How do I book an appointment with you? "Appointment requests are sent directly to reception at She Thrives. If you would like more information about my approach or have specific initial questions, please feel free to book a complimentary 15 minute introductory meeting." Ready to work with Leslie?
