A portion of the expenses to see a Naturopathic Doctor (ND) are covered by Extended health care plans and/or Health Spending accounts, so be sure to check with your employers plan. Since Naturopathic Medicine it is not covered by the Alberta government, there is a fee to see a Naturopathic Doctor. The cost for visits depends on the treatment modalities chosen. The initial 1.5 hour consultation is $275* and the cost of prescriptions, treatments and/or lab tests are in addition to this (range from $100 – 500+). Labs may be required in order to complete the assessment. The cost for follow up visits range from $100 – 300 depending on how much time is spent plus the cost of prescriptions and/or lab tests. The frequency of visits depends on the individual’s health concerns and ranges from weekly, monthly, quarterly or annually depending on the treatment and severity of your condition.

Please note that the time of your visit includes your NDs time to chart, research and review lab tests – so if your visit is 30 min, it will end at the 25 min mark to allow time to complete the necessary charting required by the Government of Alberta and the College of Naturopathic Doctors of Alberta.
