What would a Naturopathic physician do?!
Question:
What would a Naturopathic physician do?
I know that they use a holistic approach to treat illness, but what is involved in the day to day clinical aspects of Naturopathy? Can Naturopaths enter the military? What are the career outlooks and earning potential for Naturopathic physicians?
Answers:
Since most insurance doesn't cover trips to see a naturopath, the patient pays out of pocket.
Earning potential is quite good if your at a reputable practice, and believe it or not, it tends to help if the naturopath also has MD. Why? Do the math.
I think both are advantageous, personally, but I tend to err towards naturopathy, myself. If you are looking at a career in such field, call one up and see if they'll answer some questions for you. Also, the most prestigious naturopathic school in the country is Bastyr University located in Washington state.
I hope this helps a bit.
