Your First Visit
|
At Butterfly Naturopathic, we use an approach that considers the whole person, including mind, body, & spirit. This requires a higher level of patient engagement through open communication between doctor and patient, so that patients leave their appointments more educated, supported, & empowered.
For this reason, all new patients complete a 60 minute Initial Comprehensive Assessment.
*Dr. Wong treats patients over the age of 15 yrs. Those under 15 years of age can see him at Boucher Naturopathic Medical Clinic where he supervises clinic interns on Thurs & Sat. |

C) FIVE DAY DIET DIARY (OPTIONAL)
This daily record helps you keep track of what you are eating, and helps you to discover which, if any foods, medicines, beverages, or other substances may be causing or contributing to your symptoms. Recording what you eat is not meant to be stressful. The relationship between what you choose to eat and your symptoms can range from simple to complex. Some foods which may be linked to allergic reactions in the body can manifest quickly or be delayed. Simply write down what you eat for a few days before your appointment. Don't try to impress us by eating impeccably during this time. We just want to get a sense of your normal diet, so that we can create a plan with you for the betterment of your overall health.
