Naturopathic Medicine
Dr. Sumar Chams, HBSc, ND
Before medical school, Dr. Chams began her educational journey at Western University in her home town of London, Ontario. Dr. Chams volunteered for the Canadian Cancer Society throughout her undergraduate program and developed a passion for treating cancer patients. During her last year of medical school, she was accepted into a highly-competitive externship program in British Columbia where she worked alongside the top doctors and nurses in the integrative cancer space.
With a passion for learning, advocacy and community involvement, Dr. Chams contributed as the Chair of the Integrative Medicine department for two consecutive years and then went on to serve as the president of the Naturopathic Medical Student Association at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM) in Toronto, Ontario in her last year of the program. Dr. Chams represented Naturopathic Medicine as being a member of the University of Toronto’s Interprofessional Healthcare Students Association (IPSHA) where she educated university graduates about the field of Naturopathic Medicine as they discovered the world of postgraduate medical programs.
Dr. Chams began to explore treating a wide range of conditions in her 4th year as a medical intern. These conditions include (but are not limited to) reproductive health, hormonal imbalances, digestive disorders, chronic conditions such as diabetes and hypertension, cardiovascular conditions and preventative care.
Dr. Chams is now accepting new patients and is looking forward to working with you one on one to develop a personalized and sustainable treatment plan. As a Naturopathic Doctor, she feels extremely fortunate to be in a position of trust with her patients and to have the opportunity to guide them on their journey toward optimal health and wellness. It’s a privilege to witness her patient's progress and to empower them with the knowledge and tools they need to make informed decisions about their well-being.
