About Colin Race
As a Naturopathic Doctor, my practice philosophy begins with understanding the patient, their body, and exactly what it is they need to get better. This means looking beyond just the symptoms, which are only the tip of the iceberg, to the fundamental nature of the patient.
A career in medicine was always his intention, the question only came down to what area of medical science would be most rewarding, and allow him to feel confident that his patients are truly benefiting and becoming healthier. Following Bachelor and Master’s degrees in Chemistry, with his eyes focused squarely on the conventional medical field, he was introduced to the field of Naturopathic Medicine by university colleagues. Ultimately this would re-shape his outlook on health care, and he decided to pursue Naturopathic medicine, enrolling in a four year program at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in Toronto.
