About the Boucher Institute
Located in the heart of New Westminster, British Columbia, the Boucher (pronounced Boo-shay) Institute of Naturopathic Medicine is Western Canada’s only naturopathic medical school accredited by the Council on Naturopathic Medical Education.
Recognized for our small class sizes and collaborative model of learning, the Boucher Institute offers students a rigorous four-year program, which culminates in a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine (ND) designation.
Our outstanding student to instructor ratio (3:1) speaks to our close-knit community and makes the Boucher Institute an ideal setting for knowledge sharing and network building.
Our graduates are leaders in the field of naturopathic medicine, continuously exhibiting a strong commitment to self-reflection, a passionate belief in the value of complementary medicine and a commitment to leading our world toward sustainable health.
The Boucher Institute is also home to the Boucher Naturopathic Medical Clinic. Providing first-rate natural health care for the whole family, the clinic equips our clinic interns with essential hands-on experience in the art and science of practicing naturopathic medicine.
