We will only be seeing patients with appointments. All patients will be screened over the telephone before their appointment.

You will be greeted by our client care coordinator who will provide you with instructions from behind a Plexiglas barrier.

Patients will be expected to arrive with a mask on and will be asked to sanitize their hands. Staff will be wearing gloves when handling shared objects and all shared objects will be disinfected before and after use.

Payment for a product or service can be made over the telephone, via e-transfer or in-person, if needed.

We will be slowly reopening our clinic to meet our patient’s hearing needs. We are implementing policies and new services to ensure health, security and access to care. Please call or email to book your appointment.
