I practice as a general naturopathic practitioner. This includes all aspects of family healthcare from paediatrics and pregnancy to geriatrics. Naturopathic medicine can be used alone or together with conventional care. You do not have to choose only one type of medicine. Some conditions respond very well to naturopathic care on its own but in many other situations working with both naturopathic and conventional medicine will give you the best overall healthcare.
Naturopathic medicine can treat almost any condition, from long-term chronic disease to the treatment of acute conditions. Some common conditions treated using naturopathic medicine are listed below. Please note that treatable conditions are not limited to this list. If you do not see your health concern/condition listed below, please contact me for more information.

About Dr. Renée – Guelph Naturopath
In 2004, I received an undergraduate degree with honours in Human Nutrition from the University of Guelph and became a Nutritionist. After realizing that being a dietician was not what I was destined to become, I moved to Toronto and completed a four year doctorate program in Naturopathic Medicine at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM). I became a Naturopathic Doctor in 2008. I am a member in good standing of the Canadian Association of Naturopathic Doctors (CAND), the Ontario Association of Naturopathic Doctors (OAND), the Pediatric Association of Naturopathic Physicians (pedANP), and am licensed by the College of Naturopathic Physicians of Ontario. I have also completed additional naturopathic courses in fertility, pre- and post-natal care, pediatrics, obstetrics and breastfeeding.
