Dr. Lindsay Adrian , N.D.

Dr. Lindsay Adrian is a licensed Naturopathic Doctor who holds a Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry from the University of Calgary. She completed her post-graduate training in naturopathic medicine at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (formerly Boucher Institute of Naturopathic Medicine), followed by a one-year general residency and a fellowship in naturopathic oncology.

Dr. Adrian serves on numerous boards and committees, including acting as the chair of the Conference Content Committee for the Oncology Association of Naturopathic Physicians, a member of the Board of Medical Examiners for the American Board of Naturopathic Oncology, and as an examiner for the provincial licensing exams for the College of Complementary Health Professionals of BC.

Education remains one of Dr. Adrian’s passions and as such she is the residency director for one of North America’s only naturopathic complex chronic disease and oncology focused residencies. Dr. Adrian lectures for various schools, continuing education platforms, and companies, and travels all over the world in the pursuit of learning and sharing knowledge.

Dr. Adrian maintains a private practice focused on supporting individuals with cancer, complex chronic diseases, autoimmune disorders, and neurodegenerative conditions such as: 

• Lyme and Tick-Borne Illness
• Mold Toxin Illness
• Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS)
• Chronic Infections
• Fibromyalgia
• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
• Rheumatoid Arthritis
• Ankylosing Spondylitis
• Psoriasis
• Inflammatory Bowel Disease
• Sjogren’s Disease
• Multiple Sclerosis
• Parkinson’s Disease
• Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
• Alzheimer’s Disease

She utilizes a variety of tools that range from simple, but profound, foundational changes in diet and lifestyle, to advanced and cutting-edge photobiomodulation (red light therapy), on and off label pharmaceutical prescribing, and intravenous therapies. 

When not working Dr. Adrian loves to be outdoors with her husband and kids hiking and playing soccer.

I was the kid who put band-aids on my teddy bears. I was the kid who listened to adults talk about their fears and stressors. Healing is my calling, not just my job. I chose naturopathic medicine for its focus on the whole-person approach to healthcare, its aim to treat the root cause of disease, and for its tenet that a doctor is a teacher. 

As a student I saw the gap between how people were currently experiencing chronic illnesses, and how they could experience those conditions with the right support. This drove me to focus on cancer and other chronic illnesses.

As a practitioner I saw that modern healthcare was good at fighting the fire, but not great at supporting the health of the building. We need firefighters, but we also need to prevent fires, clean up after their destruction, and ensure they don’t re-ignite from the embers left behind. 

My goal is to support my patient’s body to regain strength, resilience, metabolic flexibility, and vitality; so that as new exposures and stressors arise, they have the tools and support to thrive through them.
