How are Naturopathic doctors (ND) trained differently from a conventional doctors (MD)?
Naturopathic Doctors (ND) are trained as holistic primary care physicians with a unique skill set, philosophy, and approach. Like MDs, they attend a 4-year graduate level medical school, with similar core basic sciences, body system sciences (ex. cardiology), and certified board exams. However, NDs also get extensive training in nutrition, herbal medicine, physical medicine, nature cure, counseling, homeopathy, and other holistic medicines and arts. NDs also have a unique philosophy in how they treat patients including do no harm, treat the person and not the symptoms, teach (docere means “to teach” in Latin), stimulate the body’s innate healing force (the Vis), and prioritizing prevention of illness before it happens.
NDs understand that the body has complex and intelligent systems in place to return to wellness and balance. Sometimes, there are obstacles to these processes.
