Doctor of Natural or Integrative Medicine for
Health Professionals (D.N.M or I.M.D.)

The Doctor of Natural or Integrative Medicine is equivalent to a PhD in credit hours. The DNM/IMD requires clinical training or research in place of a dissertation, as in the PhD. It can also be the initial curriculum for a Doctor of Naturopathy if one chooses to proceed further in their graduate studies. It can provide the Doctor of Naturopathy candidate credentials to practice with this acquired knowledge while pursuing the more extensive training required in the ND program.
