ONIN

12/29/2025

When evidence exists — care shouldn’t be delayed.

When expertise exists — it should be used.

ONIN is building the systems that let NDs in Ontario practice to their full capacity and ensure patients get the best care, when they need it. So they can focus on care, not scope.

Make 2026 the year your scope doesn't dictate your patient's access to care. Learn more at www.onin.ca

As the year wraps up, we’re celebrating collaboration, progress, and the incredible ND community behind it all.

Cheers to a new year focused on innovation, integration, and better outcomes for our patients.

We’re kicking off 2026 ONIN Education with an important and sometimes overlooked topic: Men's Health!

Hard Truths & Soft Tissue: Best Practices in Integrative Men’s Health
📅 January 21 | 7 PM
⏳ Pending 0.5 Cat A • 0.5 Pharm • 0.5 IVIT

This session isn’t about surface-level men’s health tips.
It’s about what you’re actually trained to assess, manage, and treat — and how to do it safely, collaboratively, and compliantly in Ontario.

As always, ONIN education comes with:
• Real clinical frameworks
• Scope-aware pathways
• Practical tools you can use immediately

Your training didn’t stop at the edge of your scope — and neither should your care.

Ontario NDs aren’t frustrated because they don’t know what to do.

We’re frustrated because we do.

We can assess the patient.
We can see the clinical pattern.
We know what investigation, therapy, or follow-up would meaningfully change outcomes.

And then we hit the wall.

Not because it’s unsafe.
Not because it’s inappropriate.
But because the system wasn’t designed to let NDs practise the way we’re trained to practise.

ONIN exists to close that gap — right now, within the realities of Ontario regulation.

Through collaborative NP/MD pathways, delegation models, and education built for real-world practice, we help NDs move patient care forward instead of leaving it stalled.

If you’re tired of knowing what your patient needs — and being unable to deliver it alone — you’re not the problem.

And you don’t have to work around it by yourself

ONIN members don’t just attend education —
they gain access to collaborative care pathways that actually work.

Ontario NDs shouldn’t have to struggle with outdated regulations to get patients the care they need.

In 2025, ONIN quietly built the structure behind safer, faster, more effective collaborative care:
• Hundreds of patient referrals processed
• Dozens of NDs trained in advanced therapies
• New NP & MD collaborators onboarded
• Education, SOPs, toolkits, and real-world pathways that actually work

NDs aren’t asking for shortcuts — we’re asking for structure.
Structure that lets us practise to the full extent of our training.
Structure that keeps collaboration compliant.
Structure that ensures patients don’t fall through the cracks created by outdated systems.

That’s what ONIN has been building — and what we’re scaling next.

If you believe in ND-centered collaborative care, you’re in the right place.
And if you’re ready for what’s coming in 2026… stay tuned.

Ontario NDs shouldn’t have to struggle to get our patients the care they need.
And we’re not asking for shortcuts — we’re asking for structure.

Structure that lets NDs practise to the full extent of our training.
Structure that keeps collaboration safe, compliant, and efficient.
Structure that ensures patients don’t fall into gaps created by outdated policy and scope gaps.

That’s what ONIN has been quietly building all year — and what we’re scaling next.

We remove the barriers:
• lab access issues
• prescribing gaps
• delegation roadblocks
• missing NP/MD collaboration pathways

So your patients get what they need — without delay.

In 2026, we’re expanding: more pathways, more tools, more support.

You don't need to navigate scope gaps alone.

Join the network that’s changing how collaborative care works in Ontario.

Dr. Marsden was back at the naturopathic college this week, working with fourth-year interns on advanced cardiovascular assessment and management!

Earlier this year, ONIN’s August CE session for members explored the same topic — advanced cardiac assessments — equipping clinicians with practical tools and case-based insights.

💡 Monthly CE sessions like this are included in our Enhanced and Premium memberships — complete with clinic resources, delegation support, and referral tools to help you bring advanced care into practice.

Tea & Talk with the Doc ☕️

This morning at BMS Resources at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine, I had the pleasure of hosting a free session for 4th-year interns on advanced concepts in integrative cardiovascular care — from comprehensive testing and nutritional strategies to mind-body medicine, physical activity guidance, supplementation, and intravenous therapies.

Empowering the next generation of clinicians with practical, evidence-informed tools to manage heart health 💙 Looking forward to my next session in December where we will tackle integrative approaches to managing metabolic health.

A proud moment for our ONIN community. 💚💙

This weekend at the OAND Centennial Gala, two of our own were recognized for their contributions to the profession:

🏆 Dr. Eric Marsden, ND— Excellence Award
🏆 Dr. Tracy-Lynn Reside, ND — Emerging Leader Award

These awards reflect the principles ONIN was built on — collaboration, clinical excellence, and elevating integrative care in Ontario. We’re grateful to our community of practitioners who show up for learning, for their patients, and for one another.

Thank you to the Ontario Association of Naturopathic Doctors staff and organizers for creating a truly memorable event and for celebrating the work being done across our profession.

- with Tracy-Lynn Reside, Dr Marsden ND, Marsden Centre

The momentum is just beginning. Onward — together. 💚💙

You know what your patient needs… but you can’t always order it.

Whether it’s a diagnostic test, a therapy, or a treatment strategy you’ve seen work — the reality is that scope limitations often put NDs in a bind.

You know what best practice looks like.
You know what the research supports.
You know what would move your patient forward.
But it’s just… out of reach.

That’s where ONIN's Advanced Concepts in Integrative Care comes in.

This is more than a conference — it’s a gateway to integrative, collaborative care that puts advanced clinical tools back on the table through safe, evidence-based access.

🧠 Clinical applications of Advanced Therapies (like NAD and Methylene Blue)
💉 Hands-on IV training
🔬 Precision Diagnostics (think epigenomic clocks and full body MRIs)
🛠️Tools & strategies for accessing out-of-scope care safely and effectively
📚 12 CE credits pending including 6 IV focused credits.

📍 September 26–27, Vaughan, Ontario
