The Environmental Health Clinic is a unique multidisciplinary clinic, and the only one of its kind in Ontario. It was established in 1996 by the Ministry of Health and Long- Term Care to be a provincial resource in promoting environmental health, and to improve health care for people with environment-linked conditions such as chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia and multiple chemical sensitivities.
The Environmental Health Clinic is the clinical part of a joint clinical and research program of Women's College Hospital and the University of Toronto.
The purpose of the clinic is to:
- Educate our clients, the public and health-care professionals about environmental health issues
- Provide a comprehensive multidisciplinary assessment for clients with environmental sensitivities/intolerances (and related conditions), chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia, and to make recommendations to their treating physicians regarding the management of their ongoing health care needs
- Gain a better understanding of the health-care needs of those with environmental sensitivities/intolerances, chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia through participation in clinical research
