Only licensed doctors, nurses or practitioners are eligible to enroll to this program. This program is a combined Doctorate and PhD. To be admitted, a student must have a Bachelor’s degree related to Science and Health, and a Master’s degree in Holistic, Alternative, or Natural Medicine or an equivalent degree recognized by a nationally recognized accreditation board.
Please Note
A Doctorate in Natural Medicine is NOT equivalent or comparable to a Doctor of Medicine (MD) or a Doctor in Naturopathy (ND). Only Medical or Naturopathic Doctor University with residential education can issue MD or ND degrees. In addition, for Doctor in Integrative Medicine the ‘I-MD’ is a professional designation only granted to licensed doctor, nurse or practitioner.

In advertising, a practitioner should have a Ph.D Degree in order to professionally use the appellation ‘Doctor’ or ‘Dr’ and must state their level of education such as “John Smith, DNM, PhD, Doctorate in Natural Medicine”.
