Advancing Treatment
through Multidisciplinary Evidence-Based Care

Welcome to the first and only Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) Program in Canada

The GoodHope EDS program is a unique multidisciplinary program which assesses, diagnoses, and treats patients with a diagnosis of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) or Generalized Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders (G-HSD).

Our program focuses on providing comprehensive assessment, disease self-management support, and research to improve the lives of individuals with EDS and G-HSD.

What is EDS? 

Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) is group of multisystemic connective tissue disorders characterized by generalized joint hypermobility, skin hyperextensibility, and tissue fragility. 

​

Symptoms vary widely and may include joint instability, chronic pain, functional gut disorders, headaches and migraines, chronic fatigue, autonomic dysfunction, mast cell dysfunction, and mood disorders 

How to refer 

Referrals for patients with a known or suspected diagnosis of EDS will be triaged by our program.

​

Current wait time is 12-18 months. 

Online Learning Module Designed for Our Patients

The GoodHope Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Clinic has developed a specialized learning module to better prepare our patients for treatment at the clinic.​

​

The aim of this module is to provide information on EDS, G-HSD, services at the clinic, expectations for care, and self-management approaches. If you have EDS or are supporting someone with EDS, we hope this resource will be a helpful companion to their treatment. ​​
