Dr. Kristin Wootton ND, BHSc

Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine

 

Welcome!  

 

From a young age, I knew I wanted to be involved in the health care field as I had a passion for health and

helping others.  While attending the University of Western Ontario (UWO), I had the opportunity to be introduced to the

world of complementary and alternative medicine through the Health Science program.  It was with this introduction that

I knew the world of Naturopathic Medicine was where I belonged.  As a practitioner, my primary goal is to empower and

educate my patients so that together we can work on optimizing their health through individualized treatment plans.  

 

I graduated with a Bachelor of Health Science from UWO in 2010 and recently graduated from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM) in May 2014 with a Bachelor of Naturopathy.  I have successfully completed the Naturopathic Physicians Licencing Examinations (NPLEX) and the Ontario Board Examinations and am currently in the process of registering with the Board of Directors of Drugless Therapy - Naturopathy (BDDT-N), the Canadian Association of Naturopathic Doctors (CAND) and the Ontario Association of Naturopathic Doctors (OAND).

International Experience

 

I have had many opportunities to travel around the globe and immerse myself in many different cultures and lifestyles while promoting health and well-being, through medical brigades, service projects, exchanges and conferences;

 

  • Ometepe, Nicaragua - Medical Brigade with Natural Doctors International in 2013

  • Ko Phi Phi, Thailand - Tsunami relief work

These experiences, allowed me to improve my communication skills and see the full impact lifestyles can have on health - both skills that I can transfer to patient care.
