Meet Dr. Sanna Averbuch, ND
Education
My journey to naturopathic medicine has been special. Growing up with a mother who was a practicing ND for over 24 years, I was fortunate to have naturopathic principles woven into my life from a young age, shaping my health and wellness in such a positive way. I also experienced my own personal health challenges, particularly with dermatology and women's health, where I saw firsthand the profound impact naturopathic medicine can have on one's well-being. This experience deepened my appreciation for the uniqueness and transformative power of this approach to healing.
I began my journey to becoming a Naturopathic Doctor at Wilfrid Laurier University, where I earned a BA Honours in Psychology. I then completed an additional four years of medical school at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM), where I obtained my Doctor of Naturopathy degree. During my clinical training, I took part in the Reproductive Focus Shift and completed a one-year internship at the Robert Schad Naturopathic Clinic.

Special Interests in
Approach To Care
As a Naturopathic Doctor, I take a patient-centred approach, dedicating time to understanding every aspect of your life and creating an individualized treatment plan tailored to your goals; recognizing that each person is unique. My approach combines evidence-based medicine with natural therapies, such as clinical nutrition, supplementation, herbal medicine, acupuncture, and lifestyle modifications. I focus on uncovering the root cause of your health concerns through comprehensive assessments, lab work, symptoms, and physical exams.
​​​​
I'm passionate about empowering my patients through education, guiding you not only to heal but to master your health journey with knowledge. In a world full of conflicting advice, I prioritize the latest evidence-based guidance and utilize a potential blood work assessment, to help you make informed decisions about diet, supplements, and lifestyle changes. Our journey begins with an in-depth initial assessment, where we explore your health as a whole—not just symptoms. From there, we design a comprehensive plan with personalized recommendations that are realistic to implement. As needed, follow-up visits provide ongoing support, allowing us to monitor progress, adjust your plan, and ensure we're on the right track to achieve your long-term goals.
