Gesundheit Institute

The Gesundheit Institute is a project in holistic medical care based on the belief that one cannot separate the health of the individual from the health of the family, the community, the world, and the health care system itself. Gesundheit?s model is designed to protect care as the core of the medical interaction. Our model is organized around these principles:1. Care is free; no third party reimbursement is accepted;2. Patients are treated as friends;3. Ample time is given to the care interaction - initial interviews with patients are 3 hours long;4. All complementary medicine is welcomed;5. The health of the staff is as important as the health of the patients; 6. Trust is central to the care interaction (i.e no malpractice insurance); and7. Care is infused with fun and play.

Tel-Écoute

Our role: to lend an understanding and welcoming ear The psychological suffering that our society regularly creates can lead to mental health problems, violent behavior, or suicide. By offering to listen respectfully, warmly, and non-judgmentally to all those who are experiencing difficulties, we allow them to express themselves in complete trust, and helps them find their own resources for solving their own problems.
