The Health Collective Story

A Commitment To Community Health

With the support of his family, friends, and the incredible community that has surrounded him since day one, Dr. Josh is proud to begin a new chapter as he takes ownership of the clinic — a space he hopes to nurture and grow for decades to come.

Dr. Josh is grateful to Livewell’s owners, Mike and Greg, for the opportunities they have provided over the past five years. From welcoming him as an intern to supporting his development as a practitioner, their guidance has played a key role in his career. Their trust in choosing him to carry the clinic forward is sincerely appreciated.

Since joining Livewell in November 2020, Dr. Josh has been deeply grateful for the way the Baden, New Hamburg, and surrounding communities have welcomed him. Being able to provide personalized, patient-focused care to such a supportive and engaged community has been a true privilege.

The passion this community has for its well-being continues to inspire the clinic and its practitioners. It is this same passion that fuels the mission of the newly rebranded Health Collective — to carry that energy forward into every patient interaction, every treatment plan, and every step of your health journey.

As The Health Collective, we will continue to honour the strong relationships already built, while expanding the care we offer and strengthening our role within the community.

Our goal is to complement the broader healthcare system by offering a proactive, team-based approach to everyday health — bringing multiple practitioners together under one roof to support you earlier, guide your recovery effectively, and help you build long-term habits that keep you well.

Our focus is simple: personalized care, collaborative support, and helping you stay ahead of your health — not waiting until it reaches a point of crisis.
