ABOUT AEGIS MEDICAL
What is Aegis Medical?
Aegis Medical is a leading provider of online addiction treatment in Ontario. We guide our patients toward lasting recovery through evidence-based medical care, including Suboxone treatment, and personalized support, all delivered with trauma-informed compassion.
We are a fully outpatient addiction treatment center that believes in whole-person care. This means we look beyond the symptoms to address the root causes of addiction, empowering you to rebuild your life with dignity.
Our specialized team focuses on treating:
• Opioid Use Disorder (with Suboxone and other MAT)
• Alcohol Use Disorder
• Tobacco/Nicotine Dependence
• Behavioral Addictions
Our Name: Your Shield in Recovery
The word Aegis (pronounced ‘ējis’) originates from the Greek for “divine shield.” To us, it represents our core mission: to be a shield for our patients. We provide protection from the stigma of addiction, support through the challenges of withdrawal, and a defense against the isolation that so often accompanies this disease.
To Heal and Advocate
Addiction is a complex medical disease of the mind and body, not a moral failing. Yet, those who struggle with it are often marginalized instead of supported.
Our mission is twofold:
- To provide individualized, empowering care that helps each patient reclaim control of their health and their life.
- To challenge and eradicate the harmful stigma surrounding addiction, advocating for our patients and promoting public understanding.
