Reuben Dinsmore, ND

Specialties

I am a naturopathic doctor with a family practice, treating a wide range of chronic and acute conditions. I work with patients to improve their overall health, instead of simply alleviating symptoms. To achieve this, I rely on a detailed health history, physical exam, and lab testing. I have a special interest in sleep, stress and mood disorders, digestive health, cardiovascular disease, men’s health, hormone balancing and detoxification.

History

Established in 2013.

I was introduced to naturopathic medicine after moving to Vancouver in 2003. Prior to that, I completed my BSc (Hon) at Queen’s University in Life Sciences, with the intention of continuing to medical school immediately after. For a variety of reasons, I realized that was no longer the direction I wanted to go, and quickly realized my calling was to guide people to be as healthy as they can through all the tools at my disposal as a naturopathic doctor. I attended medical school at Boucher Institute of Naturopathic Medicine in New West.

By pairing conventional diagnosis with conventional and complementary therapies, I offer individualized treatment developed with my patients’ preferences and best interests in mind. Treatments include herbal medicine, acupuncture, dietary and lifestyle counselling, IV therapy, homeopathy, and physical therapies, as well as pharmaceutical prescriptions when necessary.
