About Edward Sleigh
Dr. Sleigh graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of British Columbia and then went on to complete his Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine degree in the first pioneer class to ever receive their degree from Bastyr University in Seattle, WA. He began his first few years of practice, with his mentor Dr. Allen Tyler, a renowned naturopathic physician in the Fraser Valley.
Dr. Sleigh founded the Family Health Clinic in 1983. In his general naturopathic practice Dr. Sleigh has had great success treating patients of all ages with natural therapies for acute and chronic health problems using a combination of both the new and old time-tested modalities of treatment. After more than thirty-seven years in practice he has now had the privilege of treating the grandchildren of some of his original patients. He has taken extensive additional post graduate training in areas of Wilson's Temperature syndrome, Bowen Therapy, intravenous therapies and also has prescription authority in British Columbia. Dr. Sleigh believes in treating the root cause of disease and feels essential to that is proper diagnosis using both traditional lab tests as well as specialized diagnostic testing. For over three decades he has mentored many new naturopathic physicians and is valued for his years of experience by his colleagues and patients alike. In 2014, at an international gathering of naturopathic physicians, he was honoured by his peers with "The Dr. Kenneth Harmon Award For excellence in applying the core principles of Naturopathic Medicine in family practice and outstanding dedication to the Naturopathic Profession".
