what is natural family health?
Since Naturopathic Doctors are trained as generalists, we function similar to your family doctor in that:
The difference is, family doctors often must address one concern at a time. Naturopathic Doctors (ND) are fortunate to be able to spend extended time with you. NDs also tend to favor a whole person approach, looking at the whole picture in order to treat you (not your disease).
Naturopathic Doctors also lean towards using natural or non-drug based treatments with (or as an alternative to) prescription drugs. Some Naturopathic Doctors also prescribe medications so the difference goes beyond natural vs drug. One is not better than the other. Dr. Ashley will collaborate with your family doctor to provide the best care possible.
- We see a wide range of health concerns. We make appropriate referrals when needed
- We treat the whole family, all ages and stages
- We support you all the way along your health journey
