What It Means to Be an ND

 

 

Dr. Fraser Smith shares his perspective on being an ND.

 

Naturopathic medicine is a field that is often misunderstood by patients and medical professionals alike. An ND practices primary care, and uses mostly natural agents (food, water, herbs, hands on treatment, physiotherapy, etc.) to remove obstacles to healing and support the body’s ability to self heal.

 

Dr. Smith, the Assistant Dean of Naturopathic Medicine at the Natural University of Health Sciences' College of Professional Studies, illuminates what it really means to be an ND.
