At ConnectMD, we are deeply committed to addressing the significant gaps in understanding and care surrounding Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). ADHD is a common neurodevelopmental condition, yet it remains under-researched and misunderstood, with pervasive myths and misinformation clouding public perception. Despite its profound impact on individuals and families, training in adult ADHD is often lacking in medical schools, family medicine residency programs, and even psychiatry programs. As a result, many individuals living with ADHD remain unaware of their condition, leaving them unsupported and underserved. We believe ADHD should be viewed as an integral part of the broader mental health landscape and must be addressed alongside other mental health conditions for more comprehensive, effective care.
Our mission is to provide high-quality, personalized care to individuals with ADHD and related mental health conditions. This includes not only pharmacological treatment but also lifestyle changes, skill coaching, and counseling—an integrated approach that ensures more effective care and lasting positive outcomes. ADHD and mental health conditions are public health issues, and by advocating for broader systemic changes in the mental healthcare system, we aim to create lasting change that benefits individuals, families, and communities. Our ultimate goal is to contribute to a more informed, compassionate, and effective mental healthcare system—not just in British Columbia, but across Canada.
Through every patient we support, every resource we share, and every system we challenge, we are driven by the hope of building a brighter future for those impacted by ADHD and mental health issues.
