The American Association of Naturopathic Physicians Urges Authorities to Include and Use
Licensed Naturopathic Doctors in Plans to Combat the Novel Coronavirus Pandemic.
The Association calls for increased access to care and telemedicine as a way to promote health and safety of those at the highest risk.
The American Association of Naturopathic Physicians (AANP), representing 8,000 licensed
naturopathic doctors (NDs) in the United States, encourages all government officials
coordinating the national response to the 2019 Novel Coronavirus Pandemic (COVID-19) to
to utilize all licensed healthcare professionals in this health emergency, including
NDs. Licensed NDs work collaboratively across all forms of medicine, and in regulated
states are already integrated into health systems. Serving in primary and specialty care,
NDs are ready, willing, and able to support other medical professionals in changing the
trajectory of this public health crisis.
