“Excellent Service!“
“I’ve had the opportunity to visit both the Brampton and Lakeshore locations. Both facilities are clean and the staff amazing! I have a fear of needles and they took their time to treat me. I never felt rushed. My appointments started on time. I received full instructions on my treatment and felt like I could ask questions. I was able to contact the office by phone and email with additional concerns when I missed taking my medication. I felt completely prepared for my trip to the Solomon Islands and stayed healthy and safe. The clinic also provides additional location specific travel facts and information which is very useful to read over in preparing for a trip. Thank you”
