It's what we do.
If you are currently living in Ontario and are referred to the clinic by an Ontario physician, the cost is covered under OHIP, the Ontario Health Insurance Plan. Residents of other provinces should contact us to discuss coverage.
Chronic pain is defined as pain that has lasted for more than six months.
We treat many patients who have extreme chronic pain.
We treat patients with pain of the face, head, neck, back, and limbs.
A referral from your family doctor is required, unless you do not have a family doctor due to a lack of doctors in your area. Please have your family doctor fax a referral form to us. If it is not possible for you to get a referral, please call us and speak with the office manager.
If your doctor is unfamiliar with our clinic you can direct them to this website. We have provided a downloadable letter of introduction that you can print and give to your doctor. It contains all the contact information for our clinic and a brief overview of the services we provide.
Patients living in Canada but outside of Ontario are covered by their provincial health plan for visits to see our physicians, with the exception of patients from Quebec. Patients from Quebec will have their costs partially covered by the Quebec health plan, but must arrange for the remainder of the cost to be covered by private insurance. We can discuss this with you when you book your first appointment. Patients are responsible for their own transportation and accommodations.
At this time we do not offer treatment to patients who reside outside Canada. For information on a pain clinic in your area, please call the World Cervicogenic Headache Society at 712-252-4386. We can treat patients with the following legal statuses: citizen, immigrant, refugee, and international student with UHIP coverage*.
