College of Naturopathic Medicine Opiniones 

Just wanted to add a few tips for upcoming Students and also a suggestion to CNM. First, this is a lot of very, very hard work and commitment. It's not a 2 day course - it's 3 years of intense learning, including Biomedicine and Biochemistry with 2 years of evidenced based Naturopathic Nutritional Therapy. Dig in, you may think you can't do it but you will surpass all of your expectations. It is worth it. Some of our Lecturers were at the top of their game - Dr. Marc Bubbs, Nicola Zanetti, Bobby Qureshi (Biomedicine), Rhian Jones and Jodie Cahill to name but a few. Network all you can while at college and consider what you will do when you leave - that's super important. Have a study group and stick together - again super important for exam study (in our years studying, 1 exam covered 1000 slides of theory!). Find clients for clinic practice and examination in advance or the last year will be super stressful. Finally CNM, it would be great if you could update the final Certificate of Qualification to reflect the intense study, the intense exams and clinical area exams, perhaps by splitting how the student did in each area, instead of just typing "Naturopathic Nutrition" on the certificate which doesn't reflect, at all, the level of achievement and was disheartening to receive after so much study, blood sweat and tears! All in, the Staff were very understanding (Karolina and Alison B)
(I have chronic health conditions) and I appreciated how good they were with any concerns I had. Finally, enjoy, network, network, network and look to your future while still at college.

A decision to leave the IT industry after 20 years and move into Health & nutrition was my biggest and best decision to date! I started with NEDL in 2018 when I was searching for support with my fertility issues, this sparked my interest in food as medicine and in 2020 when I was on maternity leave I left IT and signed up for two diploma's and studied Nutritional Therapy alongside the Health Coach diploma. And I now have a thriving business with flexibility around school hours and couldn't be happier to have made the jump! I found CNM to be a really supportive college and the lecturers were all brilliant.

Studying at CNM was one of the best decisions in my life. The thought of starting a second career after having my kids was daunting but from day 1 I felt very welcomed and I found my tribe of passionate folks who are advocating for optimal health.

I think the education is excellent. The Naturopathic Nutrition course gives you the opportunity to experience many hours in clinic - putting the academic training into practical experience.

I did my training with CNM 10 years ago and I've seen the college grow from strength to strength each year.

I truly cannot recommend studying with CNM enough. Beginning my Nutrition studies with CNM over 3 years ago was whole heartedly the best decision I could have ever have made. The quality of the lectures and the information was far superior to my previous degree, which really surprised me. I loved the clinical training and feel I have left CNM as a well rounded and confident practitioner! Thank you CNM :)

I signed up for this course with genuine excitement and hope for a new chapter in my life. Initially, the school’s staff were warm, friendly, and accommodating, which only fueled my enthusiasm. However, within just two weeks, my entire world shifted. I took a pregnancy test and discovered I was pregnant. Simultaneously, my husband received significant news from his employer about a likely relocation to either Asia or the USA.

Being a mother to two toddlers under the age of three, managing a chronic illness, and now navigating the challenges of pregnancy, alongside my husband’s career upheaval, left me completely overwhelmed. It was abundantly clear that I could not juggle these immense life changes while pursuing a new academic endeavor.

I reached out to the school immediately to explain my situation, expecting some level of understanding and compassion. Instead, I encountered a shocking lack of empathy and support. They outright refused to accommodate my request to revoke the contract, stating I was two working days outside their stated time frame for cancellation. Two days!

What followed was an exhausting and distressing game of back-and-forth correspondence. They demanded “proof” of my circumstances. I explained that my first pregnancy scan wasn’t scheduled until mid-January and that my husband’s employer could not provide a written relocation confirmation at this stage. Yet, despite my openness and honesty, they showed zero flexibility or humanity, treating my deeply personal struggles as bureaucratic obstacles.

Their refusal to escalate my case when I asked for higher-level intervention was another devastating blow. I had already submitted a comprehensive written statement detailing my situation, but they insisted on further formalities, only to ultimately dismiss my concerns. Shame on them. They left me feeling trapped and financially burdened, knowing full well I could not afford the course under my current circumstances.

Adding insult to injury, they later attempted to “spin” the situation into something positive, pretending I had made an enthusiastic decision to continue with their program. Let me be absolutely clear: I was forced into this path due to their cold, profit-driven policies. Their behavior has caused immense stress and anxiety, leaving me questioning how an educational institution could act with such disregard for the well-being of their students.

To anyone considering this school, please be warned: they are purely focused on profit and will not support you through personal challenges, no matter how legitimate or unavoidable. Their lack of empathy and compassion is appalling, and my experience stands as a testament to their true priorities.

ADDITIONAL INFO: Based on their replies to other victims on Trust Pilot, they consistently make excuses in every response. Their scam hasn't changed at all. Don’t be fooled by these phony replies!

My response to their answer below: Dear all, please be aware that they are referencing their official complaint process. The email provided to me was info@, which is a generic address. They never specified any particular person, especially nobody from the director or management level. This is how difficult they make it for individuals like me to receive a resolution to such painful experience. I still stand by what I had original said: STAY AWAY!!!

I'm study biomedicine with CNM, it is difficult to start learning again after long time. However, I'm enjoying every single lectures, I'm fascinated about the complexity of our interred body. My journey is not finish here, I want to become herbalist.

Attending CNM's Indian Head Massage Course. Loved every minute of it. Jan was an amazing teacher. Would thoroughly recommend the course to anyone thinking about moving into the holistic space.

I very much enjoyed the Pets and People course given by Anjie Main 26th October 2024 at the College of Natural Medicine (CNM) London. It was a very good introduction to supporting the health of cats and dogs using herbs and plants. By the end of the day a good selection of herbs had been identified and teaching given to enable us in their practical use. Anjie was very generous with her knowledge, and her teaching style was relaxed, friendly and welcoming which took away any barrier to learning. I feel equipped to begin using herbs safely, and inspired to take my interest further.

CNM changed my life and I am so grateful that I found it. After looking for a place to study nutritional therapy, I decided that CNM offered the best course for me as I could study in person but also I loved that they emphasised naturopathy. It was so inspirational to learn about for the naturopathic philosophy of healing which has underpinned my practice ever since. I was constantly inspired by the lecturers and studying naturopathy as well as nutrition, meant that I could also bring in Bach Flower essences, tissue salts and detoxification. My journey with CNM didn’t finish there, and that’s what I love about health too..you never stop learning! During the naturopathy course, I found the iridology lectures fascinating so I went on to do the full iridology diploma! It’s a fab diagnostic tool so I would really recommend! This was where I discovered my love of herbs after studying iridology with Peter Jackson-Main who is the herbal medicine course director. So I knew what I had to do next! I then studied herbal medicine and although I’ve spent many years studying, I cannot underestimate the value this has brought to my life. Of course I’ve changed my career going full time into natural medicine but the benefits extend beyond this. I can look after my health (and my families), met wonderful people, made best friends and I’m genuinely feel so lucky that I was able to learn from incredible teachers who are so passionate about helping people heal. Health encompasses so many aspects, from the body to the environment and I feel empowered to look after both. Best thing I’ve ever done!

I’ve just completed the Health Coach diploma and couldn’t recommend it more. CNM gives you all the tools and skills to go out on your own and work within the health industry.

I opted for the online course which was perfect for me to fit in alongside work. The lectures were easily accessible and digestible and the team were incredibly supportive.

I’ll be looking to study with CNM again in the future!

I completed the Herbal Medicine & Naturopathy Diploma at CNM, and it was the best educational experience I’ve ever had. The environment was extremely supportive, and the teachers, students, and staff were exceptional. Over the course of four years, my life changed significantly, and I’m grateful to everyone who contributed along the way.

As I begin my journey as a practitioner, I feel well-prepared, thanks to the comprehensive knowledge from the lectures, practical skills from clinic days, and the confidence I developed throughout the program.

Thank you!

I am so incredibly grateful to the Director of Studies, Karolina and her outstanding team for their unwavering support throughout my Diploma at CNM. During some challenging times, especially when my elderly mum was frequently in and out of hospital, they showed consistent understanding and compassion, allowing me the necessary adjustments to my course and assignments whenever I needed them most. Their kindness, patience & professionalism have been a god send to me & a constant source of encouragement. It’s clear they genuinely care about each student’s success, always going above and beyond to ensure we have the tools and support we need to succeed. Anyone who is considering a place of study with a compassionate, dedicated & supportive team, I can’t recommend CNM highly enough. Thank you Karolina & team for everything.

Great curriculum- so much deeper than I realised! Wonderful, helpful teachers and staff. Thoroughly enjoyed my time studying at CNM.

Studying Nutrition at CNM was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! The teaching staff were passionate and inspiring and I now have the skills and knowledge to support my health and the health of my loved ones. Thank you CNM.

Started the Nutrition for everyday living short course and it is an absolute marvel. I think it is quite ideal to get an introduction into the world of nutrition. Totally reccomended!

I recently studied a Kinesiology foundation short course at CNM in April 2023.
I learnt about muscle testing, how, according to Chinese medicine, muscles are related to organs in the body, as well as emotions. I have learnt skills how to identify and restore balance in the individual.
It was such a valuable learning experience and has really added to my skills at a Nutritional Therapist.
I thank CNM for providing graduates with so many interesting options for further study and this list is ever expanding.

CNM is a great place to study! The Health coach course online was well structured and easy to follow .Everyone was very helpful and informative. I highly recommend it!

CNM has an outstanding curriculum and outstanding lecturers. Very professional and feel confident that I am in the right hands to obtain my Nutritional Therapy Diploma.

I have really enjoyed studying the course with the CNM. I chose them as they seem to be the premier name in naturopathic and holistic education in nutrition. The course itself is very interesting and I feel I learned a lot, even though I thought I knew a lot! As others mentioned elsewhere in other reviews , particularly with my batch, communications fell a little short of expectations, where expected communications failed to materialise and the inability to pinpoint where that went wrong and so the same mistake was repeated again, made them look a little unprofessional at times. Tutors were great, especially BioMed and Nutrition ones.
The real acid test to reviews always to me , though, is , would you go back? would you use again? With their reputation, yes I would., although very pricey ..I am looking at Nutritional Therapy Course after this.

Having recently completed the first year of Biomedicine at CNM (year 1 of a 3 year Naturopathic Nutrition diploma), I have been very impressed with the high level of teaching we received. Our lecturer was extremely knowledgeable, engaging and brought great energy to the lectures. If there was a particularly complex concept to understand our lecturer would go over it as many times as required to ensure consistent understanding across the class. The lecturer was very approachable and open to answer any questions raised by the class. Each new lecture started with a review of previous lectures to keep reinforcing the learning. There are also high quality video replays available for each lecture which you can review post lecture to repeat any areas that require additional study. I now have a great foundational knowledge of anatomy and physiology, prior to commencing my Nutrition I and II studies.
