Dr. Imane developed a deep passion for Naturopathic and Integrative Medicine while she was pursuing her medical studies in Morocco. Being part of a medical system relying mainly on pharmaceuticals didn’t make sense to her. Her interest in naturopathic medicine grew after attending international integrative medical conferences in Germany. She became passionate about using natural evidence-based treatments and adopting an integrative, holistic and individualized approach to healthcare.
After getting her medical degree and becoming a general medical practitioner in Morocco, she moved to Canada and earned her Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine degree at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM) in Toronto.
She aims to make her patients feel safe, understood and empowered about their health. Her clinical experience in 4 different countries (Morocco, Indonesia, Germany, Canada) in addition to her experience as a coordinator of professional exchanges for medical students around the world enable her to provide culturally competent care.
