What to Expect During Your Visit
As we are a teaching institution, you will be attended first by our Primary Intern students. These are our senior Naturopathic or Chinese medical students. Your student Interns will be devoted to your medical concerns, and serve as your main contact with the supervising Provider. Your student Interns are responsible for gathering your data, discussing your medical history, collecting vital measurements of your health, and holding space to hear your concerns about your conditions and potential treatment plans. The primary Intern will then discuss your case with their overseeing Provider and Resident team.
Next, the supervising Provider and/or shift Resident will join you in the treatment room to discuss possible diagnosis, lab testing or referral needs, and options for treatment. We pride ourselves on building collaborative care plans while acknowledging the potential challenges you may face.
