As many of us know, our public health care system, although superior to many countries, is overloaded & often makes getting the critical help needed, a very slow, difficult process. After countless dead ends, I decided to take my health into my own hands & discovered Healthy Upwardly Mobile (HUM).THEY ARE A TEAM UNLIKE ANY I’VE EVER MET.I was at my most vulnerable when I walked through their doors. From then till now, I am surrounded by supportive, educated professionals who have always had nothing but my best interest at heart & who continue to give me hope.My journey is far from over but my life has been forever changed because I made that one phone call & for that I will ALWAYS be grateful.

My participation in this clinic has transformed not only mine but my family’s lives. I have been to my fair share of physiologists over the years and nothing has compared. At HUM we receive holistic treatment that looks at all aspects of well being. My husband, daughter and I see Paige Abbott on a fairly regular basis and we have started to heal as a family.

I had the very good fortune of being introduced to H.U.M. 4 years ago and that was a turning point in my life. The holistic approach to recovery at H.U.M (bio, psycho, social, spiritual) has been instrumental for me. I feel like I am more than just a patient at H.U.M., I am part of a supportive community. I attend group meetings at H.U.M. weekly as an ongoing part of my program. The physicians and staff are highly knowledgeable and caring. I highly recommend H.U.M.!

I spent approximately 1.5 years visiting Paige and Dr. Hajela at HUM and each visit was a great experience and really helped me learn more about myself. The office is very welcoming and peaceful and you are treated very well there. I always felt I could speak freely and say discuss items I may not with friends family or other. I would recommend this office to anyone going through any issue of addiction or other, I am grateful for my time there and what I learned. I truly appreciated their services and their respect for their clients. Thank you very much Paige.

I began my journey of recovery at HUM having enrolled in their intensive outpatient program. It has been a truly life changing experience. I have struggled with addiction for many years. For the first time in my life I learned what I had. Through therapy I was able (and I continue) to understand and deal with my past. I have found hope again. I am learning about who I truly am as a person and I am growing. Finding HUM was not only life changing but it saved my life. I am eternally grateful to the entire HUM team and its patients for the experience and the continued support and guidance.Thank you

My disease of addiction progressed relatively slowly and caused my life to become unmanagable near the end of my working life. Initially I thought if I could just stop abusing alcohol all would be “normal” again. Even after being able to abstain from drinking I still felt anxious, directionless with a deep sense of shame. Dr. Hajela and his staff at HUM showed me that having addiction was not my fault. With their recovery plan consisting of one-on-one and group therapy and in-patient programs, I was able to understand and recognize addictive thinking, feelings and behaviour. Focusing on myself, my needs and feelings helped me get in touch with the real me. I will be forever grateful to all the wonderful people at HUM who made my recovery journey possible.
