Collaborative care is a buzzword in today’s day and age – but have you, like so many others, been disappointed by what it actually meant in terms of your care?
At Advanced Women’s Health, we take collaborative care seriously, very seriously! This means that when you see a practitioner in our space you actually get the benefits of many many brains on your case. Our founder and medical director, Dr. Sarah Wilson, ND, spent years doing research, training Naturopathic Doctors, and curating the version of a medical practice that she wished she had when she went through numerous health struggles.
Collaborative care is NOT:
❌ Practitioners working in the same space
❌ Practitioners having access to each others patient charts but not talking
❌ Going to a clinic and seeing a new practitioner each time, feeling lost and like a number
At AWH, Collaborative care IS:
✅ Our practitioners meeting an hour a day to consistently share treatment results and improve their outcomes
✅ Our practitioners taking monthly continuing education to stay up to date with the research
✅ Always having a practitioner you can see as your needs change, and at the same time not having to rehash your health history with each transition. (For example, you come in with acne but then want to start a preconception program. Or you feel like your progress with one practitioner has stalled, so another one comes in to give you a fresh perspective. Imagine that, that’s the model we are creating here!!)
If you have ever felt alone in healthcare, felt like you were frustrated by a lack of communication between your practitioners and get exhausted by constantly repeating your story, again and again, then we are here to help!
Advanced Women’s Health is changing how healthcare is accessed by women.
? No more settling for generalist care (our team each have areas where they focus their research ie. PCOS, acne, fertility)
? No more being told to take or do something without understanding your body and the reasons why
? No more being offered treatments that have only been researched on men (yes, this happens all of the time!)
We cannot wait to be your one stop shop for all of your women’s healthcare needs, in Kingston, and virtually throughout Ontario.
