Our Response To COVID

Clinic Updates

We are excited to welcome you back to Integrative!

Integrative’s mission has always been to address the ongoing health needs of our community. Further to that, our patient’s vitality and ability to live comfortably is of utmost importance.

We have had many changes to our policies and procedures in the past few months and we want you to know that we have a plan to support your medical needs. Please read this message in its entirety to help us keep you safe.

Criteria for In-Office Appointments

We are available for in-office appointments for patients who have not:

Experienced respiratory symptoms which include shortness of breath, fever, dry cough, and fatigue in the last 14 days.
Traveled outside of Canada in the last 14-days.
Been in contact with or exposed to someone who is known to have COVID-19 or awaiting COVID-19 Test Results in the past 14 days.
Been in contact with or reside with anyone asked to quarantine by Public Health within the past 14 days

We ask that a consent/declaration form be signed and provided to the front desk upon entry. Please note - a form must be signed per appointment and within 24-hours of your appointment. You may complete the declaration form online - CLICK HERE.

Rest assured that we are taking every precaution available to us to keep you protected. Should you meet the criteria and come into the office, we have taken the necessary steps to protect you and the Integrative team including:

Co-ordinated safe social distancing practices between patients and staff
Sanitization of treatment rooms after every appointment
Regular deep sanitization of the entire clinic
Limited practitioner schedules to ensure safe numbers in the clinic
Minimized the waiting area and now sending you to a treatment room upon arrival
Contactless payments
Plexiglass has been installed for protection of all staff and patients

What to Expect

Masks are mandatory at all times while in the clinic. Please ensure to bring your own mask or ask staff for one.
We are currently operating on a modified schedule and ask that you arrive to your appointment on time. Should you need to make any changes, please provide 2-business days’ notice. We will do our very best to accommodate, however, we may have to reschedule if needed.
We have limited space in our waiting area and ask that additional company to wait outside the clinic. If you need to accompany a child, please let the front desk know prior to the appointment.
To maintain safe physical distancing, we have greatly reduced the amount of people in the office at any given time. This means, unfortunately, we will not be open to any walk-ins or foot traffic to the clinic. (Only patients with pre-booked appointments or who have made prior arrangements may enter our office space.)
Need supplements or prescriptions? Please continue to order through our dispensary by directly emailing [email protected] or submitting a form here: Request For Prescription Refill
We continue to recommend telemedicine appointments for all patients whose concerns can be addressed remotely. However, if you require in-person care and meet the specific criteria above, we may offer an in-office visit.

What conditions can we treat over telemedicine?

We are Primary Health Care Physicians and can provide medical advice and treatment to most common health concerns such as allergies, mental health, gut health, pain and many more via telemedicine. We can also provide prescription refills.

How to schedule appointments
