A Few Things We Want You to Know
HBOT is a real medical therapy with a defined evidence base. For the 9 OHIP-covered conditions Evolve treats, the evidence is strong enough that the therapy is publicly funded in Ontario. For a small number of additional indications, the evidence is emerging — and we offer those as private-pay treatment with an honest evidence discussion.
We do not offer HBOT as a general wellness service. We do not promise outcomes we cannot support. Every patient at Evolve is assessed by a hyperbaric physician, and we will tell you honestly if HBOT is not likely to help your particular situation.
Whether you are dealing with a chronic wound that will not heal, late effects of radiation therapy, sudden hearing loss, or another condition — please contact us. The first step is a consultation. Most consultations are covered by OHIP when the indication is covered.
