Answers to what patients most commonly ask before their first visit.
Can naturopathic doctors order blood tests?
Yes. After an initial visit, Dr. MacLeod can order blood tests when they would help clarify your health picture. The requisition is sent to Optimal Wellbeing Clinic, which arranges collection and reports the results to Dr. MacLeod for review. He can also interpret results you already have.
Is naturopathic care covered by insurance?
Yes, most extended health insurance plans cover naturopathic visits. We offer direct billing for many major insurers to make the process convenient for you.
Do you work alongside my family doctor?
Absolutely. Naturopathic care is most effective as part of a coordinated care approach. I regularly share findings and treatment summaries with family doctors and specialists when patients consent. While naturopathic doctors don't have direct referral privileges in Nova Scotia, I actively communicate with other healthcare providers to help facilitate appropriate referrals where needed.
Ready to discuss your health and testing needs?
All new patients begin with a one-hour initial consultation ($200) to review concerns and plan next steps. Any recommended IV therapy or injection treatment is scheduled separately afterward.
