Dr. Marlee’s Approach to Naturopathic Medicine

Comprehensive

No more guessing games here! Through in-depth investigations and a functional medical approach, utilizing advanced laboratory testing (in addition to conventional blood tests) I will identify and provide insight on how your unique biochemical and physiological factors may be underlying your concerns. I take the time to educate you along each step of your journey, using my expertise to empower you in making positive and sustainable changes in your life. I aspire to inspire YOU to always strive to be your best self! I strongly believe in preventative healthcare, health optimization and life-long self-improvement, which means as a Naturopathic Doctor, I strive to achieve peak performance on a cellular & biochemical level as well, so you can look and feel your absolute best!  Which is why I will educate you on why “within normal range”, is often simply not good enough!

Customized

There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to us as unique human beings, so why should your healthcare be?  Your genetics, physiology, psychology, lifestyle, environment, dietary preferences & needs, and even socioeconomics are all essential contributing factors to your personal health and well-being! Which is why you deserve and require a personalized approach to address your health, wellness and beauty. As a Naturopathic Doctor, I take pride in curating holistic & customized treatment plans that target your unique needs and goals! 

Results Driven

I am committed to implementing a progressive, evidence-based approach to naturopathic medicine that focuses on interventions that are effective, safe, and result-driven! With my strong scientific background, my exceptional acumen in research, and my commitment to providing treatments that are impactful and measurable, I take pride in forging the future of a preventative, holistic, patient-centred model, which would provide immeasurably positive contributions to our healthcare system and society as a whole. I aspire to enthusiastically advocate for the profession through contributing to the expansion of its scientific research base, which must consider the multi-faceted and personalized nature of naturopathic interventions. 

Integrative

Utilizing patient-centered strategies that prioritize disease prevention and health optimization is proving to be necessary for meeting the needs of today’s patients as we are amid a strained healthcare system that is overburdened and unable to keep up with the ever increasing rates and costs of chronic conditions, which are largely preventable in nature. The sustainability of our healthcare system requires a team-based approach in which healthcare providers work collaboratively to provide truly comprehensive care that ensures the greatest level of patient safety and satisfaction. The World Health Organization captures the essence of just how important and powerful collaboration in medicine can be through the following statement: “Collaboration occurs when two or more individuals from different backgrounds with complementary skills interact to create a shared understanding that none had previously possessed or could have come to on their own. When healthcare workers collaborate together, something is there that was not there before.” This statement highlights the profound impact that collaborative care offers by emphasizing the unparalleled effects and outcomes that result as a consequence of the unique perspectives and approaches that each member of the healthcare team can contribute to patient care! Therefore, I am committed to practicing collaboratively with other healthcare providers and am dedicated to bringing naturopathic and preventative medicine to the forefront of healthcare through applying integrative, team-based approaches that focus on helping patients feel and look their very best!

It’s time to invest in yourself and take ownership over your health and wellness goals so you can live the long, happy and healthy life you deserve!
