About Shannon Ferguson

My journey to naturopathic medicine began like many others. I was sick, and conventional medicine could not figure out what was wrong. I was frustrated and I wasn’t ready to accept there was nothing I could do. It wasn’t until I saw a Naturopathic Doctor that I felt listened to, and that I had more options than to just live with it. I then decided I wanted to do this as my career and help others the way I was helped, and every day is more rewarding than the last!
