VIRTUAL NATUROPTHIC CARE

Personalized, evidence-informed naturopathic care—wherever you are in Ontario

Our Naturopathic Doctors offer secure virtual appointments, giving you access to comprehensive care from the comfort of home. Whether you’re looking for answers about new symptoms, ongoing health concerns, or support through a particular stage of life, we’ll take the time to understand the bigger picture and create a plan personalized to you.

How We Can Support You

Our Naturopathic Doctors provide virtual care across Ontario for a wide range of health concerns, including:

  • Women’s health and hormones
  • Perimenopause and menopause
  • Fertility and preconception
  • Pregnancy and postpartum
  • PCOS and menstrual concerns
  • Thyroid health
  • Digestive concerns
  • Metabolic health and insulin resistance
  • Fatigue, energy and nutrient deficiencies
  • Stress, mood and sleep
  • Men’s health
  • Kids and teen health
  • Preventative health and healthy aging

You don’t need to know exactly what’s causing your symptoms before booking. We’ll help you look at the bigger picture and determine the most appropriate next steps.

What To Expect

Your virtual appointment provides the same dedicated time and individualized approach as an in-person naturopathic consultation. Your Naturopathic Doctor will review your health history, symptoms, medications and supplements, previous testing, lifestyle, and health goals. From there, we’ll create an individualized plan that may include:

  • Nutrition and lifestyle strategies
  • Evidence-informed supplements
  • Laboratory testing when appropriate
  • Coordination with your existing healthcare team
  • Ongoing monitoring and follow-up

Virtual Care Without Compromising Your Care

Convenience should never come at the expense of a thorough assessment or your safety. If your Naturopathic Doctor determines that a physical examination or in-person assessment is important, we’ll make sure that happens — whether that means coming into The Root, seeing your family doctor or nurse practitioner, or being assessed by another appropriate healthcare provider. We believe good virtual care includes recognizing when virtual care isn’t enough.

Why Choose The Root?

The Root Natural Health Clinic has been providing individualized, integrative healthcare since 2014. Our team of Naturopathic Doctors brings experience across women’s health, fertility, perimenopause and menopause, digestive and metabolic health, thyroid concerns, men’s health, kids and teen health, and preventative care. Whether we see you at our clinic in Port Credit, Mississauga or virtually from elsewhere in Ontario, our goal is the same: thoughtful, thorough care that helps you feel informed and confident about your health.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I have blood work done?

Yes. When clinically appropriate, our Naturopathic Doctors can recommend and requisition certain laboratory tests. Blood work can be completed at an appropriate laboratory near you in Ontario, and your results can be reviewed during a virtual follow-up. Additional laboratory fees may apply.

Do I need to live in Mississauga to book a virtual appointment?

No. Our physical clinic is located in Port Credit, Mississauga, but virtual naturopathic appointments are available to patients throughout Ontario. You can also combine virtual and in-person appointments when appropriate for your care.

Are virtual appointments covered by insurance?

Many extended health insurance plans include coverage for services provided by a licensed Naturopathic Doctor. Coverage varies by plan, so we recommend confirming your individual naturopathic benefits with your insurance provider.
