Dr. Thiago Cavalcante

Naturopathic Doctor

Dr. Thiago Cavalcante is a licensed Naturopathic Doctor with over 13 years of experience in medicine and a passion for helping children and families uncover the root causes of chronic health concerns. His clinical focus includes autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, anxiety, OCD, PANS/PANDAS, developmental delays, behavioral challenges, pediatric ENT conditions, immune dysregulation, gastrointestinal health, and regenerative approaches to neurodevelopmental care.

Before becoming a Naturopathic Doctor, Dr. Cavalcante trained and practiced as a Medical Doctor and Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) specialist in Brazil, where he cared for both adults and children and performed advanced ear surgeries, including cochlear implant procedures. His medical career also included specialized training in Switzerland and visiting clinical experiences at internationally recognized institutions, including Harvard Medical School and Toronto General Hospital.

Driven by a desire to better understand and address the underlying causes of disease, Dr. Cavalcante later pursued training in naturopathic medicine at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM), where he graduated with honors. He has since completed advanced training in pediatric neurodevelopmental and behavioral medicine, including a fellowship in Integrative Psychiatry for Children.

At Innate Healthcare Institute, Dr. Cavalcante combines evidence-informed naturopathic medicine, functional medicine principles, regenerative medicine, and comprehensive root-cause evaluation to support children with complex developmental, neurological, immune, and behavioral conditions. He believes that every child has unique potential and that treatment should be individualized, compassionate, and focused on optimizing health, function, and quality of life.

Known for his warm and engaging approach, Dr. Cavalcante works closely with families to create practical, personalized treatment plans that address the whole child rather than simply managing symptoms.

Outside of medicine, Dr. Cavalcante enjoys singing, dancing, cooking, spending time outdoors in the sunshine, and exploring new ways to help families live healthier and more connected lives.
