Durand Executive Health Centre
Attract and retain a healthy and productive staff and lower benefits/LTD and turnover expense in a competitive labour market.
Executive/Staff Health Assessments leveraging leading-edge technology and testing for early detection are not offered in the public health system and exceed most traditional GTA competitors.
Forget expensive ‘full body MRIs’ that miss 95% of an individual’s mind and body health picture and are not recommended by the American College of Radiology.
We lead the market with state-of-the-art, constantly evolving testing protocols from genetics to imaging.
- We can Customize our assessments to the job role or lifestyle, allowing for a deeper dive into health issues that are typically found and try to prevent them from occurring or worsening, leading to short or long-term disability.
60%+ of employees consider QUITTING for a job that would better support their well-being. Deloitte Canada 2023
The cost of confidential Health Assessments and year-round care can often be far less than the cost of turnover, disability and treatment costs for chronic disease. Durand helps injured team members get back to health and productivity.
Durand Health partners with your benefits and insurance provider to reduce the projected increases in Chronic health care and resulting Long-term disability expenses.
Leave with a Durand Health Journey plan intending to age painlessly and avoid chronic disease, and we help you stay on track year after year, keeping you healthy and productive and reducing the company’s

Visit our 10,000-square-foot treatment centre with complimentary onsite parking in one of Canada’s leading medical research cities, Hamilton, Ontario. Most Exec Health Centres are located in downtown Toronto, the drive to which we feel is “NOT Doctor recommended.” The Durand Health Centre is located in the fashionable south downtown district near St. Joseph’s Hospital and the Forest Hill of Hamilton, the Durand Neighbourhood with its centuries-old classic architecture—a 5-minute walk from the Hunter Street GO Station.

Our whole health care approach is supported by a broad and ever expanding range of services
Health at Work
Missed work or underperformance at work due to health issues costs Canadian companies billions of dollars each year. Half of Canadian workers plan to look for a new job in 2024, a nearly twofold increase from 2023.
Durand Corporate HealthCare offers an entirely fresh approach to health
Durand Enhanced Premier Care offers primary care memberships tailored to each level of employees, with same-day or next-day appointments, Virtual, in-person, or hybrid.
- 25%-50% of Ontarians, depending on household income, will not have access to Primary Care in Ontario by 2026.
- Most extraordinary lack of coverage among new Canadian labour.
- Once the world’s envy, Canada now ranks LAST among wealthy nations for healthcare as of March 2024 and 30th globally by the WHO.
- Canada is in a Productivity Emergency (‘Break the Glass,’ says the Deputy Governor of the Bank of Canada, March 2024). We rank just above Turkey and well below every major OECD economy.
- Companies and benefits providers have long been able to fund healthcare costs through HSAs, which is critical as key staff and their families are lost in the system.
- Mental health issues now affect 30% of Ontarians.
- Two-thirds of Canadians (66%) think there are structural problems within health care that surmount a lack of funding.
- Virtual care addresses a narrow range of issues without further in-person follow-up. 81% of low-income Canadians still need a Physician.
- Canadians ranked last in same or next-day appointments among wealthy nations.
Market-leading Annual Health Assessments & Health Journey Plans for all levels of staff
- One of the most comprehensive Exec and Essentials Health assessments in Canada, led by a fantastic team of Physicians and professionals + market-leading advanced technology and testing focused on prevention and early detection that is continually updated.
- We already provide thousands of dollars of services in our extensive annual health assessment, which the major downtown assessment shops do not offer. We treat our patients as individuals with first-class treatment, from private office suites for assessment day to customized meals.
- We don’t believe in pushing ‘extra’ paid services continually. We feel that the focus needs to be on your health journey and quality time with your medical team and not being constantly upsold.
Specialist Support: Integrated teams of specialists – medical and paramedical working together with a Health Care Navigator
- Specialists like Paediatricians are unavailable in many major Ontario markets, and children’s conditions are turning chronic due to a lack of access to timely care.
- Back pain and Joint issues left untreated turn chronic, leading to short and long-term disability for key, difficult-to-replace staff, contributing to a national productivity crisis
- Insurance-funded medical procedures available for critical team members
We're not your Doctor's office
Durand Corporate HealthCare offers clients a unique spa-like atmosphere with mutual respect between the employee patient and a team of health outcome-focused navigators and professionals who are happy and motivated to work in a patient-focused environment.

All for as little as $20/month per employee…
Durand Health’s one-of-a-kind wellness & nature facility
Let our staff create special memories for you and your team. 100-acre Organic farm centrally located in Carlisle (adjacent to North Burlington) that features:
- A magnificent Mennonite restored century in-floor heated barn with event space or treatment options and access to local chefs who can create special treats for service indoors or out.
- A growing coterie of therapy animals led by Mazie, Pippa and Nova, our three Nigerian Dwarf goats who will take you for a hike for all levels of walkers along streams and rivers or over to a 200-foot stocked mini-lake.
- Arrange for treatments (Massage, Reiki, Yoga and mindfulness, tree bathing, and more) for staff along the river. When Mother Nature cooperates, enjoy winter sports and ice skating. Bonfires, leadership and team-building events, local cider and wine tastings, maple syrup production, horse rides, and more can be arranged to make your company’s commitment to wellness something to remember and unique.
Continuous HealthCare Innovation and Medical / Paramedical Curation
- The next decade will likely see an unprecedented explosion in ground-breaking medical advancements. These advancements could potentially revolutionize how we prevent, diagnose, and treat diseases, leading to improved health outcomes and longer, healthier lives. Without corporate support, the public system will be challenged to keep up and fund such critical developments.
- Under the leadership of Durand HealthCare’s Chief Medical Officer and his committee of medical specialists, Durand HealthCare will continuously curate and integrate new early detection tools, AI-based technologies, treatments, and strategies into our offerings, leveraging the incredible research and development of the Hamilton/McMaster medical community and new developments worldwide.
