Are These Services Covered by Insurance in Singapore?

Naturopathic consultations are considered elective in Singapore and are not included under the Health Services Act.

Can I Schedule an Online Consultation?

Yes. Dr. Kamat welcomes patients from around the world through secure telehealth sessions.

International patients often find this a convenient way to begin or continue care.

Do You Also Offer In-Person Consultations?

Dr. Kamat commonly supports patients with digestive disorders, thyroid and hormonal imbalance, skin concerns, fatigue, autoimmune diagnoses, and paediatric concerns like eczema, asthma, and allergies. She also sees children with developmental delays or behavioural issues. Her care addresses both physical and emotional contributors to chronic health patterns.

How Are Naturopathic Doctors Trained?

Can You Work Alongside My Other Doctors?

Absolutely. Dr. Kamat regularly collaborates with paediatricians, endocrinologists, gynaecologists, and other specialists. While her care is not a replacement for conventional medical treatment, she often works in parallel to offer additional insights or help manage aspects of health that may not be fully addressed elsewhere.

Initial visits are in-depth and typically last up to 90 minutes. Dr. Kamat will review your health history, current concerns, past test results (if available), and discuss your goals. This allows her to create a plan that feels appropriate and manageable for your lifestyle. Follow-up visits are used to review progress and adapt the approach as needed.

Are Lab Tests or Supplements Required?

Lab testing is recommended on a case-by-case basis and may include blood work, hormone panels, food sensitivity testing, or functional stool analysis. If supplements are suggested, Dr. Kamat will explain the reasoning behind each one. Her goal is to simplify your health plan, not complicate it, and she only recommends what she believes is useful.
