I started seeing Dr. Karm three years ago - and I'll admit I was pretty skeptical of alternative…read moremedicine - but in the last three years, i have been feeling amazing and have a better understanding of my body. Best I've felt in my whole life. It takes time to break out of the mentality of instant relief and gratification that we've built but you really start noticing a difference in your body. I love her because she teaches me along with helping and healing me. So i understand everything. On top of that, she's super patient and has a really calm, positive energy about her. Thats what you want in a doctor (unlike my GP). Since I've been seeing her - I have never had to go to my GP (except for blood tests) or even the walk in clinic (which used to be a monthly occurrence for me) because now I am armed with knowledge and know what to do. And also because Dr. Hans is always available to help. She's an amazing doctor. Incredibly professional and intelligent. Caring and supportive. She is always doing work after youre gone to help you. Youre not just a file number to her or a 15 min appt. She spends her time with you. If only all doctors could be like her.

Dr. Karm has been my family's naturopathic doctor since 2014. She treats her patients holistically…read moreand truly cares about their well-being. Dr. Karm has especially helped my mother and I recover after very stressful periods of our lives that negatively impacted our physical health; leg injuries, back pain, digestive problems, food sensitivies, etc. She's a natural healer, with her empathy, relationship-based approach and knowledge. Dr. Karm is truly a gift to our community!

After years of various gut issues, anxiety, repetitive migraines, and chronic back pain - I had…read morefinally reached my breaking point. "*You* are going to a naturopath," I told my boyfriend. He met my glare with an enigmatic gaze but resigned himself to my incessant badgering. After initially reaching out to his former naturopath facility and failing to connect with anyone, I hit Google for Naturopath recommendations. Newmarket Naturopath was the first on the search results page, and after looking at a few other contenders - I decided Dr. Alexandra Lee and her practice were the winners and promptly booked her earliest available Saturday appointment. On appointment day, Dr. Lee greeted us upon entering with a warm smile and a clipboard with the intake form on it. She offered us water, tea and coffee while my boyfriend completed the form and was incredibly gracious. Once we were ready to go, I asked her whether I'd be permitted to enter the office too to receive some insight on what I can do on my end to help the success of my partner's health goals. Without missing a beat, she replied: "Absolutely!" I thought that would be the last of our interaction; this was my partner's appointment after all - but no. Throughout the entirety of the appointment, Dr. Lee made the recommendations and suggested exercises an inclusive experience, often extending the option to me to attempt the demonstrated exercises with my boyfriend. Since our initial appointment, my partner's back symptoms have been near non-existent thanks to the suggested stretches she tasked him with, and his various gut issues have been rendered more or less obsolete courtesy of the supplement treatment plan she's put him on. And perhaps even more startling - he has lost ten (welcomed) pounds. My boyfriend is no longer dependent on over the counter medicines to get him through every single day. (And I'm glad to not have to carry a whole pharmacy in my purse anymore.) To see the sheer jubilation on his face over being gut problem free, having no back pain, a substantial increase in mood and having his anxiety be reduced to a dull noise in the background provides me with an elation that I can't even begin to articulate into words. I cannot begin to thank Dr. Lee enough for returning my partner's body back to him and renewing his confidence. I'm looking forward to meeting with her for my own appointment in October. If you're looking for a naturopath who is warm, thoughtful and addresses your concerns and fears with an exceptional attention to detail - Dr. Lee and the Newmarket Naturopath practice is for you.

I arrived at Naturopathic Living Medical Solutions seeking to better my overall health. I did not…read moreeven THINK about asking them to help me with my plantar fasciitis. BUT OMG!!! Dr. Debbie Smrz actually was able to ELIMINATE my foot pain completely! Here's my story: About 14 months ago, I went to the Urgent Care Clinic barely able to walk. I was diagnosed with a severe case of plantar fasciitis. It was so painful, I could barely walk. I sought treatment at a podiatrist who promptly prescribed orthotics and stretching. Nothing helped. After 6 months, the podiatrist decided to try cortisone shots in my foot. If I rate my pain prior to the injections, I would give it a 10 on a scale of 10. After the second round of injections, my pain went from a 10/10 to about an 8/10. Better...but still AWFUL. I was no longer going to the gym, and I was spending a lot of time sitting. I started gaining weight. I was told to exercise to lose the weight, but I couldn't put weight on my foot. I tried the stationary bike; the recumbent bike - but still a lot of pain. I only exercise I could do with minimal pain was swimming. And, frankly, not owning a cottage or a pool made this exercise very inconvenient. So I arrived at Naturopathic Living Medical Solutions for my initial assessment about my overall health. I wanted to feel better; sleep better and have more energy. In the assessment, Dr. Nadine Cyr asked about physical ailments. Plantar fasciitis, I responded. Have you tried BIOPUNCTURE, she asked? Bio-what? I had never heard of it. I was told it was one of the services the clinic offered. Dr. Cyr told me that her colleague, Dr. Debbie Smrz, has been successful in treating people in pain with biopuncture. As I was willing to try anything, I agreed. I made an appointment with Dr. Debbie for the following week and in less than 5 minutes she had injected my foot with some homeopathic substances. Immediately she asked if it felt better. Ummmm...maybe a bit? I wasn't sure. Two weeks later I came back for another treatment. It is feeling better, I said triumphantly. I think the pain is only at a 6 or 6.5 out of 10 now! I am so happy! Dr. Debbie thought it could get better. After treatment #2, I really noticed a difference. I went for a walk around my block without any pain. I no longer limped when I got up from the sofa. My boyfriend even commented that I no longer asked him to rub the bottom of my foot to relieve pain! I went back to Dr. Debbie for a 3rd treatment - but as she watched me walk to her office, she asked me if I needed more treatments. Then it hit me: I hadn't been in pain for a number of days. Pain was at a 0/10! YAY!! Biopuncture successfully relieved me of my foot pain and now I am able to focus back on exercising and improving my overall health. If it hadn't been for Dr. Cyr's deep and thorough assessment of my health, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to be treated by Dr. Smrz. This clinic is seriously dedicated to helping all of their patients achieve optimal health. I was not aware of BIOPUNCTURE prior to going to Naturopathic Living Medical Solutions. I wish I had known about it. I could have saved myself months of pain. I encourage anyone with pain issues to talk to Dr. Smrz and Dr. Cyr at the clinic. Ask about BIOPUNCTURE. It was the only thing that helped my foot pain. Thank God it did.

I am approaching menopause and had a lot of things I needed help with: sleep issues, weight gain, brain fog, mood changes.

In addition to supplements and life style suggestions, I am also having a customized IV treatment every three weeks. My skin has never looked better and my over whole state of being has improved!

Naturopaths. Are they all quacks? Is it simply hocus pocus? My answers to these questions would…read morehave been yes and yes...before I met Dr. Lei! She was referred to me by a friend, the only reason I would ever even consider something like this as an option. Long story short, I was developing a number of health problems related to stress and anxiety. Lei consulted with me on a number of occasions to help me with my wellness, that included acupuncture sessions (awesome!) and nutritional advice. Surprisingly, she used very SCIENTIFIC explanations for everything, and it all just made sense to me. I have also used her acupuncture services to relieve muscle pain. I recently had pulled my back and her needles worked tiny miracles. Definitely worth going to as a supplement to your regular doctor. It is worth it even if you aren't covered by insurance. If you are covered, what are you waiting for!?!

My daughter and I have been clients of Suzanne for many years (since 2006 for sure), and have been…read morelearning a lot from her on how to better manage our health issues, as well as how to prevent illness in general. Suzanna is special for three reasons. First, she masters a range of fields of knowledge addressing health: from holistic nutrition and body care, to homeopathy, Chinese medicine and acupuncture (for instance). Secondly, Suzanna uses what best suits your health issue, either one technique, or a number of them combined. And third, and I think the most important, is that you have a say in your treatment. This means that Suzanne respects her clients' wishes, limitations and preferences; recognizing and empowering you as the most important person to promote your own health. We could not be happier with the results, and that is why we strongly recommend Suzanne as your naturopath!

I was very skeptical upon my first first well over a year ago, but half way through our discussion I was at ease. This is quite the feat as I am a very tightly wound individual who works in a high stress field. Suzanne was able to put me on a plan that fit my schedule as well as help me to develop much healthier habits to aid in my health. I have had difficulty with my energy levels as well as my sleep for over a decade. In less than a full 12 months Suzanne helped raise my energy level and most importantly through tintures (which I actually enjoyed!) SHE HAS FIXED MY SLEEP.This was something no doctor had been able to do. I had been to countless specialists and sleep clinics. Suzanne is very caring and helpful beyond words. I have heard of many alternative medicine practitioners and naturopaths that continually tell you to take pills, herbs and to visit them regularly without much explanation. Some not even telling you what is in the things you are given . Suzanne is forth coming about everything she suggests and goes into great detail on why it will be helpful. She does not have you come in repeatedly for unnecessary appointments just to make money. She truly cares about her clients and it shows in all she does. If I could rate her more stars I would! She is definately a leader in her field.

I've been coming here for years primarily for massage therapy. David is an amazing RMT. He has experience with acupuncture too, which means he's familiar with pressure points and always gets the right spots. I had issues related to plantar fasciitis and was treated by Mehran and his staff. To be honest, I didn't think that physio would help, which was why I didn't book an appointment earlier. But after the first appointment with shockwave therapy, I felt a lot better. After a few sessions, I feel like I've learned enough to manage. Not only do you get the direct physical therapy, but they teach you about the stretches and management that you need to do. The staff are very friendly.
