Yes, it is recommended to bring any medications and supplements you are currently using.
No, it is not required to have a doctor’s referral note to consult with the Nutritionist/Homeopath.
The first step is to make an initial appointment that can be between 1-2.5 hours in length. If your appointment is for the Nutrition component it is a 1 hour assessment and if your appointment is for the Homeopathy it is 1.5 hours in length for the initial appointment.
The Nutrition assessment examines your diet and lifestyle habits. It takes into consideration your digestive tract and organ health and is suitable if you are looking for a weight loss program, learning about healthy eating habits, children’s health, addressing a certain health condition such as diabetes or cholesterol and learning about foods necessary for health. The Nutritionist also provides guidelines for supplementation if required. Meal plans are provided if desired that outline breakfast, lunch, dinner and all snacks and includes recipes and directions to make the recipes. All Nutrition programs are available for all ethnic backgrounds and all ages including pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Homeopathy is more of an in depth look into the condition presented. The Homeopath will explore all areas of your life including sleep patterns, reactions to weather, specific understanding of any aches and pains, what ameliorates or worsens the condition etc. This is done to select a suitable homeopathic medicine. Most of the time, a remedy will be dispensed at the end of the initial consultation, though in some cases, further analysis may be required and a day or two may be needed to study the case.

That is not a problem. The Practitioner is offering a package for both services in one. This initial appointment is 2-2.5 hours in length.
There are many insurance companies that cover the services of both the Nutrition and Homeopathy and include: Blue Cross, Desjardin Financial, Liberty Health, Maritime Life, Sunlife and Great West Life. You would have to check with your insurance company if Homeopathy or if a Registered Nutritional Consulting Practitioner is covered. If you don’t have any coverage, you can still claim your homeopathic care under "Medical Expenses" on your Income Tax Return.
