What is Naturopathic Medicine?
Naturopathic Medicine is a distinct form of medicine that addresses the root cause of illness. It involves the use of safe, natural therapies in order to promote healing.

Therapies used by Naturopathic Doctors include nutrition, herbs, homeopathy and acupuncture. Dr Dao believes that every patient is unique, so the prescriptions are also unique to the individual needs of each patient.

Can I use Naturopathic Medicine if I am on medication?
Yes, Dr Dao works with you to ensure your treatments are safe with your medications.

Naturopathic Doctors require 3 years of premedical studies at the University level, plus 4 years of full-time training at an accredited college of Naturopathic Medicine. In Ontario, a Naturopathic Doctor must pass intensive regulatory board examinations in order to be a licensed Naturopathic Doctor.
