Our 2020 Flu clinics are now over.  Please call the office to schedule your flu injection appointment.  As a reminder, if you have had your flu vaccine in the community, please call the office and dial extension 385 to report it so that we may update your medical record.

Given the COVID-19 pandemic situation this year, our flu clinics will look slightly different.  Flu clinics will be at our Vascular Clinic, 157 Hespeler Rd., not at our main clinic.  All our clinics will be BY APPOINTMENT ONLY, and we will NOT be offering any drop-in clinics this year.  

Our flu clinics are now open to ALL INDIVIDUALS, regardless of risk level.

Will be offered on Wednesday October 21st, 2020 and Wednesday October 28th, 2020 from 5:30pm to 7:30pm.  Evening clinics are as well BY APPOINTMENT ONLY.
