What is the difference between Homeopathic Medicine and Naturopathic Medicine?

Both Homeopathy and Naturopathy are systems of medicine which started in Europe about 200 years ago and have spread world-wide as effective and gentle healing modalities that treat almost every medical condition. The main difference between them is the type of medicines used: homeopathy uses solely homeopathic remedies, while naturopathy uses a variety of medicines, including homeopathy, but also botanical medicine, clinical nutrition, physical medicine, and lifestyle counseling.

Why do I need to schedule an appointment for a prescription refill?

A certain number of refills are safe and permissible without a doctor’s visit. Some prescriptions require labwork and/or consultations. Every time the doctor fills your prescription, she is making sure that the medication is necessary and safe for you; checking for interactions with other meds and supplements; and assessing you for adverse effects. This not only takes time, but is also necessary for your well-being. Thank you for understanding.
