About Bayani Health & Wellness

At Bayani Health, we believe addiction treatment should be dignified, accessible, and rooted in real medical care — not limited by paperwork, insurance barriers, or stigma. We provide physician-led online addiction treatment that meets you where you are, with privacy, clarity, and support.

Our Mission

Our mission is simple:

To make evidence-based addiction care available to adults who want help, without unnecessary barriers.

We meet patients with respect and empathy, and we deliver care that is:

Medical, not judgmental
Personalized, not one-size-fits-all
Flexible, not constrained by cycles of denial or stigma

Every person who comes to Bayani Health brings a unique story — and deserves care that honors that.

Who We Are

Bayani Health & Wellness was founded by licensed MD physicians with deep experience in addiction medicine. We are not a coaching service, not an app, and not a generic telehealth marketplace — we are a medical practice built specifically to treat addiction with evidence-based methods, delivered online.

Our team is committed to:

Medical excellence — grounded in evidence and compassion
Privacy and discretion — your care stays between you and your physician
Transparent care models — easy-to-understand pricing and treatment structure
Partnership — you are part of every decision we make about your care

We treat both alcohol use disorder and opioid use disorder, with or without medication-assisted treatment, using the latest clinical approaches that have been shown to improve stability and quality of life.

Our Approach

At Bayani Health & Wellness, the way we practice is as important as what we practice.

Physician-Led Care

Every patient is cared for by a licensed MD physician. You will not be handed off to automated systems, coaches, or uncredentialed staff. Your physician listens, evaluates, and directs your treatment.

Evidence-Based Treatment

We prescribe treatments supported by science, including FDA-approved medications when appropriate. These treatments reduce cravings, improve daily functioning, and support sustained recovery.

Whole-Person Support

Addiction touches every part of life. In addition to medical treatment, we offer guidance on nutrition, movement, and lifestyle habits — all to support your well-being. These elements are complementary to medical care, not a replacement for it.

Convenience and Accessibility

All visits are conducted securely online. This means:

No waiting rooms
No travel time
No stigma about where you seek care
Care that fits into your real life

Our approach is reflected in how we deliver online addiction treatment.

Why "Bayani"?

The word Bayani means “hero” in several Philippine languages — someone who shows courage, compassion, and honor in the face of challenge. We chose this name to reflect our belief that:

Seeking help is courageous — and that courage deserves support, not judgment.

Whether this is your first time reaching out or you’ve tried treatment before, taking the step to get care is meaningful — and we honor that.
