F	Fariha Tasneem on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I went in with my extremely sick 9 year old daughter who could barely hold her self up. During check up she threw up all over the floor (it was just water). Doc was nice about it and went to get someone to mop it up. Receptionist/Nurse - whatever her role is - handed me a bunch of napkins and told me to clean up myself. As she walked past I even heard her comment out loud "Oh my God this is too much!" and goes on to discuss with the other staff in her language about how my daughter is too big. Fortunately I understand the language and picked up. Since when is someone "too old" to throw up? Someone throwing up at the doctor's office is TOO MUCH? Me being thoughtful, figured that I'd clean my own daughters mess up and wiped the floor with the napkins. It wasn't until I got home and spoke to my doctor friends about this, they told me it's not even my job to clean that up. They should've taken care of it. The front staff are just a bunch of lazy ladies who are extremely rude!!! I only go there for Dr. MacDiarmid- he's super nice and great with kids
T	Tkdkix “Texas” S on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's disappointing to read so many negative reviews about this clinic, particularly if directed at Dr. Mohan. I have been going to this clinic since 1987... so 30 years. Dr. Mohan has been my family doctor that entire time and I can honestly say that I have not experienced any of these negative accusations of him being rude or condescending. As a matter of fact I find him to be light hearted, caring and very professional. He has always been able to accurately and quickly diagnose and treat me for many different things over these many years. There have been many different faces working at front reception, so I cannot say much about anyone in particular. I understand that some have not been very friendly over the years, but not rude. My last few experiences with front desk staff have been positive. I just think that it's too bad that such a good doctor, in my opinion, is getting such a bad rep on google reviews, from people that have seen him once. As a long time patient I felt the need to share my perspective.
Y	Yena Lee on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Was the only clinic nearby with yellow fever vaccine available ahead of my trip and I was pressed for time. Receptionist was friendly and set me up with an appointment the same day (on a weekend). I was informed I could not get the yellow fever vaccine until I met with a nurse (for which they charged me >62$ and such fees are not covered by my private health insurance). Nurse was pushy and urged me to get several other vaccines, with several pamphlets warning me of the dangers of Dengue fever, malaria, typhoid fever, meningitis, etc. that plague cities in Brazil. Nurse also advised me to return for a second dose of Hep A in a week, but when I went to a hospital clinic I was informed this was not the dosing advised by Health Canada regulations. Prices for vaccines are significantly above the "acceptable" prices and were not covered by my private health insurer.
J	Jeannie dwhytie on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My husband and I are travelling to Africa and needed a travel doctor to advise / administer vaccines and medications. Islington Medical Centre is in our area and we booked appointments there despite some very nasty reviews. The front office staff staff was efficient and very cordial. Our paperwork was processed in a very expedient manner. We met with a very patient and friendly Dr. Mohan whose knowledge of the areas that we would be travelling and our medical needs was very comforting. He explained required vs recommended vaccines/medications and the costs . At no point did we feel obligated to purchase unneeded vaccines or medications. We are seasoned travellers and this is the best experience that we have had with a travel doctor. He even has a gentle touch with the needles!
S	Sukhi Singh on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very nice Nurse. I was going to India and went to this clinic to learn what shots I needed. She explained to me in detail, what shots I needed and why. Very detailed Vaccine information and advise was given to me in writing also. My experience at this clinic was very pleasant. I even got to send my form ahead of time. They had all my shots in stock and gave me a detailed receipt, for me to claim my money back from the Insurance.
J	John Stark on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I walked in this place and they told me to go to my car and book an appointment when i physically walked in shud i attatch a cup and string and play walki tali with you too what a joke of a place
A	Aizaz Alam on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ AVOID Dr Mohan. lazy, liar, condescending. Was my family doctor for a number of years, didn't run the tests he was supposed to. It was only when I switched that I learned what a good doctor really is.
C	Carolyn Colagiovanni on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is the worst place I’ve ever dealt with. Do not do use their online appointment booking because they will confirm an appointment with you and you will login and you will never hear from anyone. You will sit there for hours with a message saying “I will be with you shortly”. I called and questioned my online appointment and was told we don’t do online appointments. Then I was told they only do walk-ins. I could not make an appointment and they opened at 10 o’clock the next morning. They said it should not be busy on Wednesday morning . I walked in they said we don’t do walk-ins you need to have a doctor here too be seen. What a waste of time don’t waste your time or energy on thus place!!!!!
