Please check your facts. Naturopathy may or may not equate Naturopathic Medicine legally. Naturopathic doctors who graduate from accredited programs can be licensed as primary care physicians, for example in Washington state. States which do not regulate naturopathic medicine will often have charlatans advertise themselves as NDs. Unaccredited correspondence schools offering various flavors of diploma mill fare have been extremely vociferous fighting regulation of naturopathic medicine.

California licensed naturopathic doctors starting in 2003. However, title 'naturopath' is not protected.
