Frequently Asked Questions: Naturopathy/Nutrition

  • Any previous blood tests or x-rays
  • Any letters of referral
  • List of medications, supplements or tonics currently taking

  • Initial consultation will be the longest and allow 1 ½ hours
  • Short visits – 30 mins
  • Subsequent appointments will be around 1 hour
  • When you make an appointment I will forward you a question sheet.
  • (If you don’t have email I can post it to you or you can collect from clinic).
  • These are general questions to save time at initial visit.
  • At initial consultation I will ask many questions (about an hour of them) including health history, symptoms, duration etc..
  • These questions will give me an indication of the cause of your symptoms as this is not always apparent from the current symptoms.
  • Some of the questions a Naturopath asks do not make sense to the client at the time, or seem irrelevant to the symptom(s), however, as we work from a holistic point of view we cover all body systems, not simply the symptom itself.
