CLINIC update regarding covid-19:

The health and well-being of our patients, staff and surrounding community are of the utmost importance to us. This is definitely a very challenging time for everyone. In following Public Health guidelines and MOH recommendations, it is imperative to limit the spread of this viral outbreak and to minimize the risks to those that are most susceptible.

With that said, in an effort to keep our patients safe, the clinic will be contacting any currently booked patients regarding

their appointments and providing options to them. Moving forward we will:

- Not be booking any non-urgent appointments (ex: Physicals, etc) and instead, triaging urgent appointments by phone or video/ telemedicine.

- Prescription renewals can be faxed from your Pharmacy to the clinic and if possible, will be renewed (at no charge) for the time being.

- Only essential pre-screened visits, injections, prenatal and well baby visits will continue to be seen at the clinic.

We kindly ask that you delay requesting any appointments that can safely wait until we are able to return to our usual daily operation.

Please be advised that as a precautionary measure, we are not currently offering our after hours urgent care in person. Instead, our family practice patients will be offered a phone call from the on-call doctor (limited spots available).

Please contact the clinic for more information. We appreciate your understanding & cooperation.
