Dear [Patient Name],

As part of our commitment to advancing whole-person medicine, our clinic is collaborating with the Gastroenterology Association of Naturopathic Physicians (GastroANP) and National University of Natural Medicine’s Helfgott Research Institute on a study evaluating naturopathic outcomes for Ulcerative Colitis. I wanted to invite you personally because your voice and experience can directly help advance evidence-based care for future patients navigating UC.

Here are the essential details:

The Goal: Measuring real-world outcomes of naturopathic care for UC patients. The study is conducted by the Helfgott Research Institute and funded by the Gastroenterology Association of Naturopathic Physicians.

Who Can Join: Adults currently receiving naturopathic care for ulcerative colitis.

Time Commitment: 6 months total. You will complete four short online surveys (about 15–30 minutes each): one after first your visit, one at 1 month, one at 3 months, and one at 6 months.

Your Care Does Not Change: Participation will not alter your treatment plan in any way. You continue your care with me as usual, and all clinical decisions remain between us.

Cost: Completely free to participate. You will receive $25 per survey completed, $100 total. 

100% Voluntary: You may choose to leave the study at any time without giving a reason and with zero impact on your care.

Warmly,
