Becoming a licensed Toronto naturopath (ND) requires years of accredited study. A licensed Naturopath in Toronto needs to complete a four-year undergraduate degree. Afterwards, the naturopath needs to complete at least four years of intense training and practicum at an accredited North American institution for naturopathic medicine. During this period, the they will have the opportunity to practice their knowledge and attend numerous courses from a number of domains: anatomy, chemistry, physiology, pharmacology, etc.
The North American standardized exam is called NPLEX. At the end of the formation, each prospective ND has to pass this exam in order to obtain the free right to practice. However, the formation of a naturopathic doctor doesn’t end here. Lifelong learning and formation are key elements of a ND’s success and happy patients.

NDs are professionals experienced in a number of healthcare treatments; they treat each patient as a unique case and they elaborate custom treatments that complement traditional medicine.
