💳 Investment

Visits with a Naturopathic Doctor are not covered by OHIP, but many private insurance plans offer partial or full coverage. Please check your individual plan for details, including annual or per-visit limits.

The number and frequency of appointments will be tailored to your health needs and discussed during your consultation.

Current Fees:

  • Initial Visit (60 min): $375

  • Second Visit (45 min): $275

  • Standard Follow-Up (30 min): $185

  • Brief Check-Ins (10–15 min): Available if appropriate

🔁 Cancellation Policy

We require at least 48 hours’ notice for cancellations:

  • Late cancellations: 25% of the visit fee

  • Missed appointments: 50% of the visit fee

🧪 Laboratory Testing

Lab testing may be recommended to assess your health. If you have recent results from your MD or NP, further testing may not be needed.

Tests ordered through our clinic are not covered by OHIP but may be reimbursable through extended health benefits. Fees are set by LifeLabs and charged to your card on file once results are received.

💊 Hormone Therapy

Naturopathic Doctors in Ontario have some but limited prescribing rights. If hormone therapy is part of your care plan, prescriptions may be accessed through:

  • Collaboration with your MD, NP, or specialist

  • Co-management with a Nurse Practitioner working alongside our team (note: NP services are not covered by OHIP and carry an additional fee)

If hormone therapy is your main reason for seeking care, please contact our Office Manager, Lisa, before booking to ensure our model is the right fit for you.
