NM Week 2026
Naturopathic Medicine Week is an opportunity to recognize and celebrate the work of naturopathic doctors across British Columbia.
Every day, naturopathic doctors are supporting patients in communities throughout the province. From helping people navigate complex health concerns to supporting prevention and long-term wellbeing, NDs bring a thoughtful, patient-centred approach to care that values time, listening, and partnership.
Across British Columbia, naturopathic doctors practice in a wide range of settings and support patients facing many different health challenges. Their work reflects a commitment to integrative, evidence-informed care and a deep respect for the unique needs of each patient.
Naturopathic Medicine Week is a chance to learn more about the profession, celebrate the practitioners who serve patients every day, and recognize the growing role naturopathic doctors play in supporting health and wellbeing across British Columbia.
Join us May 3-9, 2026 as we celebrate naturopathic medicine’s unique contribution to a stronger, more sustainable healthcare system.
