Join the Oncology Association of Naturopathic Physicians
Who can become a member of OncANP?
The OncANP has four primary membership categories:
Associate/ND Member – This category is open to all licensed naturopathic doctors who have graduated from a CNME-accredited school.
FABNO Member – This category is for those NDs who have successfully passed their naturopathic oncology board exam.
Student Member – This category is open to all students currently attending a CNME-accredited naturopathic school.
Retired ND/FABNO Members – This category is open to all former Associate or FABNO members who are no longer in clinical practice or hold an active license.
Allied Member – This category is open to all licensed health care providers or biomedical researchers
Patient Advocate – This category is open to all members of the public who support the mission and vision of the OncANP and do not qualify for any other membership category
You DO NOT need to be specialized in oncology to be a member of the OncANP! In fact, the majority of our members are general practicing healthcare providers who see some amount of cancer patients in their practice.
There is also a second aspect to our membership that commonly gets confused with becoming a regular member. We have created a process by which to become board certified in naturopathic oncology, termed FABNO (Fellow to the American Board of Naturopathic Oncology). This specialized portion of our membership is meant only for those members who focus a majority of their practice on oncology. In other words, those practitioners who have at least 65% of their practice made up of oncology patients. In order to qualify for this portion you must first be an OncANP member, and then fill out an application form, present case studies and pass an exam. This exam process happens every 18 months.

Why become a member of OncANP?
The OncANP is poised to lead the growing swell of interest in, and knowledge of, the practice of naturopathic oncology. An increasing number of consumers and practitioners look to the OncANP to set the standard for the way non-conventional and integrative oncology is practiced. Thus, it is imperative that the OncANP responsibly and diligently promote the practice of naturopathic oncology in an effective way. The OncANP is defined by its membership and only through membership will the OncANP gain the strength, momentum, and resources necessary to accomplish its goals. When you become a member of the OncANP, you will join a community of colleagues committed to the growth and development of naturopathic oncology and its integration into cancer care. As more cancer centers realize the benefits of naturopathic intervention, they will seek a properly credentialed naturopathic doctor-such as Fellow to ABNO (FABNO; American Board of Naturopathic Oncology, the board certification arm of the OncANP). Your membership dues and participation in the OncANP will help the OncANP reach its goals.
