CLINIC CLOSED ON FRIDAY, SEPT. 30
Attention Patients - The clinic will be closed on Friday, Sept. 30 in recognition of National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. We look forward to seeing you when we reopen on Monday, Oct. 3.
WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

COVID-19 VACCINES
As of November 26, Ontarians age 5+ are eligible to receive a COVID-19 vaccine (note that Pfizer is currently the only approved vaccine for youth ages 12-17 and Pediatric Pfizer is the only approved vaccine for 5-11 year olds).
For Second Doses, the recommended interval for optimal protection is as follows:
PFIZER - 8 weeks after first dose
MODERNA - 8 weeks after first dose
PEDIATRIC PFIZER - 8 weeks after first dose
THIRD DOSES
Ontario is now recommending third doses of COVID-19 vaccine to optimize protection from infection for those who are most vulnerable. Third doses can be either mRNA vaccine (Pfizer or Moderna). The recommended interval is 3 months (84 days) from your second dose. All Ontarians 18 years of age or older are now eligible for a booster dose.

CHANGE TO OFFICE PROCEDURES
As the health care system continues to recover from the COVID-19 Pandemic, we have returned to patient choice for in-person or telephone appointments.
However, please understand that while the office is open, we continue to follow strict guidelines as required by public health to keep our staff and patients safe. This means everyone entering the clinic must wear a face mask, complete a COVID self screening form upon entering the clinic take it to reception and then maintain appropriate physical distancing in our waiting room.
To assist us in this transition phase, we ask patients to please not walk into the office without an appointment. CALL FIRST if you have questions, concerns about your health or wish to book an appointment.
