Naturopathic Medicine
Dr. Chris Brown has been proudly serving the communities of Northwestern Ontario as a Naturopathic Doctor since 2019. A longtime resident of the region, he grew up in Thunder Bay and completed his undergraduate degree in Kinesiology at Lakehead University. He then pursued his naturopathic studies in Toronto, becoming a registered Naturopathic Doctor in 2018. Shortly after, he moved to Kenora to join his wife, Amie, and family.
With a deep passion for naturopathic medicine, Dr. Brown is committed to providing high-quality, patient-centered care. He takes pride in offering personalized treatment plans that empower his patients to achieve their health goals. Over the years, he’s found Kenora to be a vibrant and welcoming place to call home.
In 2023, Dr. Brown and his wife welcomed twin daughters, Elliott and Olive, into their lives. As a family, they love exploring the outdoors, tending to their garden, and indulging in their shared love of cheesecake. These simple joys have made their life in Northwestern Ontario even more special.
The Process of Naturopathic Medicine
Dedicated to service of humanity as a practitioner of both science and art
I believe that education is at the heart of effective healthcare. My goal is to empower my patients, encouraging them to build confidence in natural medicine and the healing process. If you’re new to naturopathic care, the focus is often on the journey itself rather than just the outcome. My approach goes beyond simply recommending supplements or dietary changes. I take a holistic view, assessing the whole person to find the best ways to support your unique path to wellness.
This approach places you, the patient, in an active role in your own care. It’s about fostering greater autonomy and satisfaction with the progress you make. It’s healthcare that extends beyond treating illness—it’s about working together to sustain long-term wellness. Regular follow-ups help ensure that the plans we set continue to support your goals over time. True success comes from collaboration, where your input and commitment are as vital as the care I provide
The Value of an Interdisciplinary Focus
Collaboration, associations, and perspective are paramount to your health
I believe that understanding when and how a patient seeks my care is a key part of the assessment process. Naturopathy can provide substantial support for managing symptoms and conditions, but it’s equally important to recognize the unique journey each patient has experienced. I place great value on open communication and collaboration with your other healthcare providers, as it helps me gain a fuller understanding of your care and ensures that we’re all working towards the same goal—improving your quality of life.
Your perspectives on your health journey are important to me. We’ll take the time to discuss your experiences in detail and, together, we’ll explore new options or find ways to enhance the approaches that are already working for you.
