Thank you very much for your message. It is so valuable to get perspectives from practicing N.D.s . I have been waivering back and forth between going into Naturopathic and Osteopathic medicine for a long time. I would love to go into Naturopathic but the lack of insurance coverage scares the hell out of me. I also do believe that medications are appropriate in some cases and naturopathic medicine shouldn\'t shun uses in cases where it is needed. Be this as it may, I might still go that route. Just because I believe it can be quite effective in a lot of cases and just makes sense when it comes to lifestyle and prevention.
