It is a comprehensive approach to wellness that focuses on the needs of the individual patient. Treatments involve modifications to diet and lifestyle along with selected natural therapies. A naturopathic physician (ND) is similar to a medical physician (MD) in that both deliver primary care and both undergo extensive medical school training in order to have a licence to practice medicine.
Based on a tradition of vitalism, naturopathic medicine evokes the healing power of nature. We all have an inherent capacity to heal ourselves. Naturopathic doctors help patients tap into this power in order to improve their health. Hippocrates believed that treatments should not make the patient worse.
I would like to start by introducing myself. I am Dr. Tara Macart, naturopathic physician, and I run a busy family practice in Qualicum Beach. I consider myself very lucky to do what I love in such a wonderful place. I am also fortunate enough to work with my husband, Jonathan Macart, business manager and chelation therapist, who also loves his work.

Dr. Tara and Jonathan are the most passionate, empathetic, authentic and loving people that I've ever met in a doctor's office. They proof that it's possible to have an honest, open, understanding doctor-patient relationship. Dr. Tara actively listens to all you have to say and explains everything in detail for you to understand what's going on. Jonathan always makes you laugh with his wonderful bright sense of humor. All my life I hated going to the doctor, now I'm looking
