Health Clinics

Cannabis Clinic

Are you looking for some new solutions to your Chronic Pain, Insomnia or Anxiety health issues. Patients tell us how medical cannabis helps their conditions, and of other benefits they reap from this natural medication. Medical Cannabis has been legal since 2001 and we have been serving patients since January 2017. If you are looking for medical expertise and support as it relates to medical cannabis we would like to offer our services to you.

Our services are covered by your provincial healthcare (exception Quebec) and we are able to provide services across Canada as well as in English and French.

Over the years more and more peer reviewed studies are taking place, lending scientific evidence to support the claims that medical cannabis can be a support to many health conditions. Please feel free to check out our library for more information.

Telemedicine Clinic

Frustrated because you don’t have a doctor OR the time to wait at a clinic to be seen. Connect with our telemedicine doctors for prescription renewals, lab requisitions etc.

Health Advocacy

One question?! That’s all I get?!….. What do I ask?

Going to a doctor these days can be very confusing, intimidating, frustrating and anxiety provoking. You are only given time to ask ONE question, for ONE problem. The doctors appointments are shorter than they ever have been! So you’ve resorted to Dr. Google, looked up the symptoms you are having in some attempt to be able to get to the answers (the right medication, or maybe the right lab test) and use your ONE QUESTION effectively. So what is that question, it would be helpful to know. So you get you the answers and direction you are hoping for and start healing.

Your health is all you have!

What is health?

The World Health Organization (W.H.O.) offers a simple definition of health as “a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity”. “Social well-being” is an important aspect of this definition that may not always occur to us in thinking about our health.

The Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion affirms social, economic and environmental aspects of ‘health’. This important Canadian document states that, in order to be healthy, “an individual or group must be able to identify and to realize aspirations, to satisfy needs, and to change or cope with the environment”. In this way, health is seen as a resource or an asset that helps us lead our everyday lives. Health is seen as a positive concept that emphasizes social and personal resources, as well as physical capacities.

Yes, the system has its challenges but can you wait for it to be fixed? Or do you need answers now?

I work with people privately and in small groups to ensure they are asking the right questions, building the right teams and living their best life.

What is a Health Advocate?

A health advocate is someone with experience and expertise in the Canadian healthcare system, they know and understand how the system works. They know what questions to ask and whom to ask. As a result, they are positioned to help you or your loved ones navigate the system. They are able to work with you and your medical professional in understanding your goals and the options available. Meaning they can always provide you with a clear picture of what’s going on and why.

What do these services cost?

Patient Centered Care Fees

Health Advocate services are NOT covered by provincial health plans.

In times of crisis, faced with a new diagnosis or a lingering condition, it makes sense to invest directly. Prioritizing physical and mental health is the best gift we can give ourselves and the people we love.

5 Hour Package
Use as required. Ask your advocate to participate in doctor’s appointments, identify priorities, provide help navigating the health care system: $550+ GST.

10 Hour Package
As above, with extra coaching and support for complex situations: $1100 + GST.

Prior to commencement of patient centered care, you’ll:

receive our written commitment to patient confidentiality,
review and sign a client agreement,
remit payment by e-transfer, cheque or credit card.

To start the process please book a call with us to ensure we are right for each other.

Health & Wellbeing Coaching

You can take control of your health and wellbeing!

Health & wellness coaches partner with clients seeking to enhance their well-being through self-directed, lasting changes, aligned with their values. In the course of their work, health & wellness coaches display an unconditional positive regard for their clients and a belief in their capacity for change, honoring the fact that each client is an expert on their own life, while ensuring that all interactions are respectful and non-judgmental.

As an experienced coach and retired RN, I work with my clients holistically to meet their goals.

The specific program we work on is called “Owning You!”, it is a year long program that creates lasting change!

If you are interested in applying to be coached by me I invite you to a 45min Joyful Breakthru call where we discuss your goals.

Integrated Disability Management

“Disability need not be an obstacle to success. I have had motor neuron disease for practically all my adult life. Yet it has not prevented me from having a prominent career in astrophysics and a happy family life.” these are the words of Professor Stephen W.

We help your employees return to work more quickly – in many cases, as much as 67% faster. Our unique disability management system gives insurance consultants and HR departments a better approach to short-term disability case management.

We provide you with:

Professional case managers

Expanding Your Wellness Program Without Expanding Your Time Involved by Denise Ropp and Elizabeth Rankin-Horvath
There is a need for a fundamental shift in thinking, from a mechanistic reductionist viewpoint that essentially focuses only on a linear framework of cause and effect on the physical aspects of health, to a holistic viewpoint that recognizes that workers are human beings – complex beings living in complex environments (Capri and Luisi, 2014). Workplace wellness programs are significantly more successful and show a much greater value of investment when the interconnections that affect workers as a whole (body, mind and spirit) are addressed (Ward and Robison, 2015)…
