www.aht.caWorking to improve the health and well being of Aboriginal People in spirit, mind, emotion and body, Anishnawbe Health Toronto provides Traditional Healing within a multi-disciplinary health care model. Located at Queen St. East and Sherbourne St., we see a diversity of individuals from the aboriginal community in the downtown core presenting with a large variety of conditions including mental illness, diabetes and malnutrition. This exciting, fast-paced clinic works in cooperation with the other members of the Centre, including MDs, social workers, nurse practitioners, traditional healers and elders. We have a small dispensary that is available to the patients, but we rely mostly on dietary modification and herbal teas from our large dried herb collection. Working within the Circle of Care, you will learn about traditional aboriginal healthcare, have the benefit of working with medical professionals in other fields and gain valuable experience in inner city healthcare.
