Frequently Asked Questions
Naturopathic Care with Dr. Savannah Bukant, ND
-
Yes, Dr. Bukant is a fully licensed naturopathic physician in the state of Washington. She completed a rigorous four-year naturopathic medical program at an accredited school, including intensive coursework in biomedical sciences, clinical nutrition, herbal medicine, physical medicine, and counseling. In addition to classroom hours, she completed over 1,200 hours of supervised clinical training. She passed national board exams (NPLEX) and maintains her license through ongoing education and credentialing with the Washington State Department of Health.
In short — she’s trained to treat complex health issues with the same scientific foundation as conventional doctors, while using natural therapies that support long-term healing. -
Yes. In Washington State, Naturopathic doctors have one of the broadest scopes of practice in the country. Dr. Bukant can prescribe a range of medications, including antibiotics, thyroid medications, hormonal therapies (like bioidentical hormones), and even some controlled substances (Schedule III–V).
That said, she approaches prescriptions with care. Her first goal is to support your body’s ability to heal naturally — but when medications are helpful or necessary, she’ll incorporate them into your care plan in a thoughtful, integrated way. -
We’re considered an out-of-network provider, but the good news is that many insurance companies in Washington State do reimburse for naturopathic care. After your visit, we’ll provide a detailed receipt (called a “superbill”) that you can submit for potential reimbursement.
Every plan is different, so we always recommend calling your insurance provider and asking:Does my plan cover out-of-network naturopathic care?
Do I need a referral or pre-authorization?
Are specific labs or treatments excluded?
Even if your visits aren’t fully covered, many of our patients feel the investment is well worth the depth and personalization they receive in their care.
-
Dr. Bukant sees patients with a wide range of health concerns — from complex chronic conditions to general wellness and prevention. Some of the most common issues she supports include:
Hormonal imbalances (thyroid, PCOS, perimenopause/menopause, irregular cycles)
Digestive issues (bloating, IBS, SIBO, food intolerances)
Chronic fatigue, burnout, and adrenal dysregulation
Skin issues (acne, eczema, rashes)
Autoimmune conditions
Anxiety, low mood, and sleep disturbances
Nervous system imbalance and emotional overwhelm
She also offers support for patients who feel “off” but haven’t gotten clear answers elsewhere — whether you’re in the middle of a health crisis or just know something isn’t quite right.
-
Naturopathic medicine is rooted in the philosophy of treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. While conventional care often focuses on managing illness with medication or procedures, Naturopathic care goes deeper — asking why the body is out of balance and what can be done to restore health from the inside out.
Dr. Bukant combines science-based diagnostics (like lab testing) with natural treatments such as nutrition, herbal medicine, homeopathy, nervous system support, and mind-body connection. She sees the body as an intelligent, interconnected system — and helps guide it back to balance through compassionate, personalized care.
-
Yes — and you’re not alone. Many of Dr. Bukant’s patients come to her after seeing multiple specialists, trying various medications, or being told “everything looks normal” when they still feel off.
She takes time to listen to your full story, uncover patterns, and run more in-depth testing when needed. Instead of chasing symptoms, she looks for root causes — like gut imbalances, hidden inflammation, hormone shifts, or emotional stress — and builds a plan that supports the whole you. -
Your initial visit is a comprehensive 60–90 minute session where Dr. Bukant gets to know you — not just your symptoms, but your story, your habits, your stressors, and your goals. She may review previous labs, recommend new testing, and begin designing a treatment plan that reflects your unique needs and lifestyle.
It’s an empowering experience — many patients say it’s the first time they’ve felt truly seen and heard in a medical setting. -
Yes. Lab work is a key part of Naturopathic medicine — not just to check for disease, but to detect functional imbalances that may be missed on standard panels. Dr. Bukant uses both conventional labs (CBC, thyroid, cholesterol, etc.) and specialized functional tests, including:
Hormone panels (saliva, blood, or urine)
Comprehensive stool testing for gut health
Adrenal cortisol patterns
Micronutrient and inflammation markers
Food sensitivity or intolerance testing
These insights allow her to tailor your treatment to exactly what your body needs to heal and thrive.
-
Yes — and it’s designed to work with your body, not against it. Naturopathic treatments are evidence-informed, gentle, and personalized. Dr. Bukant prioritizes safety and monitors your progress every step of the way. If you’re taking medications or under care for a serious condition, she will work collaboratively with other providers as needed to keep everything aligned.
-
It’s easy to get started! You can book an appointment online or reach out through the contact form if you have any questions. We offer both in-person visits in Kirkland, WA and virtual appointments for patients across Washington State.
If you’re ready for deeper answers, a clear plan, and a provider who sees you as a whole person — Dr. Bukant would love to support your healing journey.
