Vanessa Lee, BSc, ND

Naturopathic Doctor in Toronto (Yorkville: Bay & Bloor)

Vanessa completed a 4-year program in Cell & Molecular Biology at SFU (Burnaby, BC) to earn a Bachelors of Science in Cell & Molecular biology. Afterwards, she attended CCNM (Toronto, ON) for 4-years to complete the intensive, full-time, post-graduate, naturopathic diploma program. As a registered Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine in Ontario, she is currently a member of the OAND and the CAND. (Click for more about naturopathic qualifications.)

Currently, Vanessa practices naturopathy in downtown Toronto (Yorkville: Bay & Bloor). Every patient is treated as a unique individual with unique circumstances to consider in analyzing their case. As a naturopath, Vanessa really believes in treating the root cause of diseases instead of focusing on just the presenting symptoms. Patient education and a holistic approach are very important in working with the healing process.

Outside of her formal training at CCNM, Vanessa continually participates in seminars and programs to further her education. She has completed Levels I and II in Reiki (energy healing), Module A in Matrix Repatterning, and continues to attend seminars in Complex Homeopathy, Nutrition, Personal Development, and other topics.

On a more personal note, Vanessa comes from a family background of Acupuncturists and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practitioners. Her interests in holistic healing stem from a life-long desire to help others and explore the potential healing powers of the natural world.
