01Does this sound familiar
What Toronto residents ask about.
The same handful of things come up across the city. Here's what people tell us first.
- 01Bloating, IBS and reflux that nobody has explained
- 02Irregular cycles, PMOS, perimenopause and thyroid
- 03Fatigue that sleep doesn't fix
- 04Autoimmune flares, and the fatigue that outlasts them
- 05Skin, mood and sleep that are off
- 06Symptoms that don't fit one label
If two or three of these sound like you, talk it through with a Naturopathic Doctor on a free call and you'll hear whether this is the right next step.

02Why it keeps coming back
Normal results, no answers.
Normal isn't the same as explained.
A ten-minute visit, a standard panel, and a prescription for the symptom. It can quiet things down. It doesn't tell you why it started, so it tends to come back.

A good fit if
- Your symptoms have gone on for months or years with no clear explanation
- Your results came back normal or borderline and the next step was another prescription
- You're looking for a science-based holistic approach to healthcare
- You live in Ontario and you're comfortable with video or phone appointments
Not sure? That's what the call is for.
Tell a Naturopathic Doctor what's going on and they'll tell you plainly whether this is the right next step. If it isn't, they'll say so. You've spent ten minutes, not $249.
07Toronto questions
The questions people search first.
Straight answers, in plain language.
Do I need to visit a clinic in Toronto?
No. Every appointment is by video or phone, from wherever you are in Toronto or anywhere else in Ontario. Lab work is run at a LifeLabs or Dynacare near you.
Can I see a naturopath virtually from Toronto?
Yes. Fitra Health connects Toronto residents with licensed Ontario Naturopathic Doctors via secure video. You can book from anywhere in the city, downtown, Scarborough, North York, or the west end, without leaving home.
Which insurers do you bill directly?
We bill through TELUS eClaims with more than 30 insurers, including Manulife, Canada Life, Desjardins and Industrial Alliance. If your plan isn't on the network, you get an insurance-ready receipt after every visit.
How much does a naturopath cost in Ontario?
At Fitra Health the first call is free, the first 60-minute appointment is $249, and follow-ups are $99 for 30 minutes or $199 for 60. Lab work is passed through at cost. Most extended health plans cover naturopathic visits, and we bill more than 30 insurers directly.
Is naturopathic medicine covered by OHIP or insurance?
OHIP doesn't cover naturopathic visits. Most workplace and private extended health plans do, up to an annual maximum. We bill through TELUS eClaims where your insurer is on the network and issue an insurance-ready receipt where it isn't. Visits are HST-exempt and may qualify for the medical expense tax credit.
Do I need a referral?
No. You book directly. Bring any results you already have and your Naturopathic Doctor starts from there rather than repeating work.
