Focus on the Primary Concern

For each visit, please try to focus on your primary concern or problem. We do not want patients to rush us. We do not recommend saving up multiple problems for a single visit because you may run out of time. You may be asked to book a separate appointment to spend the appropriate amount of time on your concerns.

Patient Behaviour Policy

Rude or aggressive behaviour towards any staff member will not be tolerated under any circumstances. Patients who behave in this manner will be asked to leave the office immediately. If you encounter any problems associated with your visit, please contact our clinic manager in writing.

Out of Province Canadian Residents

We provide services for patients from other provinces. We do not have the ability to verify the validity of your provincial insurance plan in a timely manner. We request that a $50 deposit be made for each appointment. Please contact the clinic in 14 business days to request a refund of your deposit, if applicable. If your provincial insurance plan is invalid, we will show you the documentation and you may forfeit your deposit.
