Whether you work from our office in Ottawa or Scottsdale, we need your help in building bridges between practitioners and patients, building connections between the physical and virtual world, and building systems to support those looking to achieve health – whatever that means to them.
The allopathic healthcare system is built to treat symptoms swiftly and efficiently. When there’s an emergency or a patient in need of acute care, conventional medicine springs into action and saves lives. But the system’s strong reflexes for acute care give way to its weakness in prevention. Now North Americans are becoming increasingly unwell and many go untreated by a healthcare system bogged down by urgent cases that could have been prevented by simple lifestyle changes or an integrated plan to address the root cause. We believe that the North American healthcare system needs to change to support individuals through their entire wellness journey, instead of just when things get really rough. Integrative and functional medicine are movements that can make this a reality, but evolving healthcare is like pushing a boulder up a mountain. It takes an army of believers all pushing in the same direction to get to the summit. So we’re taking the hassle out of integrative medicine, pushing alongside those individuals who want to see a change in healthcare. We’re pushing for healthcare that puts the patient in the driver’s seat. We’re pushing for wellness that is affordable and achievable and available to all. This is our mission. It drives everything we do. We’ve got a long way to go, but every little push takes us closer to our vision of wellness fulfilled.
