AS SEEN ON
hey there
I'm Dr. Courtney,
a Naturopathic Doctor in Toronto
but I was once where you are now
I knew that something was wrong, that something was out of balance, but I didn't know how to address it or where to start. I was given blanket diagnoses, told that my symptoms were just part of being female, and was given one pill after another. No one could provide me real answers, real testing, or real solutions. Nothing worked, and nothing improved.
As I'm sure you've gathered by now . . . I found myself a Naturopathic Doctor.
Naturopathic Medicine may not have necessarily saved my life, but it certainly changed it.
I’ve since made it my purpose to ensure that your symptoms are heard and your questions are answered as we dive deeper into the root of your health concerns to provide guidance on how to truly come out the other side with a reclaimed state of wellbeing.

areas of focus
digestion
Naturopathic medicine works to assess and treat your digestive issues by incorporating the four principles of gut rehabilitation:
remove the offending foods/toxins,
repair the intestinal lining,
restore the proper flora,
& replace underlying deficiencies.

hormones
Hormonal imbalances can be hard to decipher. We feel unwell, but our lab work says it's 'normal'.

Step one is to understand your symptoms. During our naturopathic intake, we will:
-
complete an in-depth assessment of your concerns

review any health history, nutrition & lifestyle factors that may be impacting those concerns

customized nutraceutical recommendations
-
specific diet & lifestyle recommendations

Recovery takes time, and follow-up visits allow us to ensure we're in the right direction. These visits help to:

provide accountability & support

track our long-term goals & new symptoms or concerns that arise along the way
