Naturopathic Doctors

Can you become both a naturopathic doctor and medical doctor?

Is it possible for someone to become both a medical doctor and naturopathic doctor? I want the skills and training to do both or at least have the option to do both. I know I could go to medical school for 4 years and then naturopathic school for another 4, but is there a combined program somewhere? Does anyone have information?

In North America, the ND training (from accredited institutions) is very much analogous to MD training and it absolutely IS science based.

It is possible to do both. We had 3 MDs in classes with us when I was in school – a psychiatrist, a gastroenterologist and a foreign-trained MD who had been working in the emergency and psych departments at a major hospital in Lebanon. We also had a few ND students who left to attend regular med school.

While the MDs had the opportunity to “write out” of common classes, only one tried. He didn’t pass the exams. (Note: any student who can demonstrate that she has successfully completed course work that encompasses the material covered in a specific class has this opportunity. A few classmates did this successfully.) The ND students were not able to write out of classes only because local med schools have gone to modular learning so course material was not clearly delineated between classes.

Before you decide you need both, I’d suggest that you really investigate the training. Visit a few schools, talk with the students. Decide which practice model most appeals to you. And definitely look into whether NDs are regulated where you want to practice, and what their scope of practice includes, etc.!
