I have been prescribed graduated compression stockings for venous insufficiency for over 20 years…read more The Canada Revenue Agency considered prescribed graduated compression stockings as tax exempt when a written order from a medical practitioner is supplied. In British Columbia, prescribed compression stockings are typically tax exempt, meaning that they are not subject to Provincial Sales Tax. When I bought my prescribed Sigvaris Compression stockings with a copy of my prescription at my local Pharmacy, I did not have to pay GST or PST but not at Paris EveryBODY!! Their billing system charges PST for prescribed compression stockings!! When I called them to question their error, I was advised that I can claim my PST charges myself from CRA!! I am NOT IMPRESSED with PARIS everyBODY's service model. One has to pay for tax exempted items at the retail store at the store's convenience so one can claim the tax charges next year!! Since I had already ordered 3 custom prescribed Sigvaris compression stockings, I did not have the choice to refuse my ordered items. So I ended up paying PST for all 3 items!! If I had this information prior to my order, I would not have ordered SIgvaris compression stockings from Paris everyBODY!!!!!

If you've ever had an old dog or an aging parent, you know that stage: the stage where you watch…read morethem gradually slow down, dragging their feet or limping, until you have to wonder how many good years they have left. In the case of your dog, it may even be time to visit the Granville Island Veterinary Clinic, where a kind veterinarian will let you hold Spot's paw as he is ushered into the Elysian Fields. In the case of your aging parent, however, you just need to visit Paris Orthotics. I've been an Paris Orthotics customer -- or is it patient? -- for many years, and have had several pairs of long-lasting orthotics that keep my middle-aged feet and knees working happily. When I got ambitious enough to start snowboarding, a Paris Orthotics staffer even spent an hour with me, adjusting the way my orthotics sat in my snowboarding boots, so that I could enjoy my new sport pain-free. So when my aging but still active mother moved to Vancouver, I knew that there was only one spot that would keep her -- as a longtime orthotics evangelist -- in working order. She's relied on Paris Orthotics for the better part of a decade, getting her orthotics adjusted as her feet, knees and hips have aged, so that she's been able to keep up her two-hour-a-day walking regime even though she's now 78. But what really put the Paris team to the test was when my mom hit her first real mobility impairment. After an uncharacteristically snowy winter, my mom developed significant knee pain, stemming from the way she'd shuffled across icy sidewalks. She worked her way across the city, seeing doctors, arthritis specialists, pilates teachers, massage therapists and physical therapists. She saw some improvements...but she still relied on a cane to get around. Then she checked in with Martha Paris, who met with her several times in order to evaluate her gait and find out exactly where the pain was occurring. She adjusted my mom's orthotics and got her to switch to a lighter pair of shoes. Now, a month later, my mom is back on her feet -- and walking cane-free! Thanks to Paris Orthotics, I can see that my mom has many good, mobile years ahead of her. I'm celebrating by taking her to the park so she can chase a frisbee.

These folks took me under their wings at the most vulnerable point of my life, during cancer treatment and recovery. The compassion and understanding of these gals, front desk and nurses, is incredible. If you're in the crappy position (pun intended) and forced to use a prosthesis for an ostomy, this is the place to come for help and supplies. It's the only ostomy centre / center in North America. I don't care where you live in the Lower Mainland, you have to support this business that does so much for the community. Live in Vancouver, get your butt on the SkyTrain and take it the 22nd Street Station, and then walk an easy block to the clinic. Appointments are free (as many as you want) with several well-versed ostomy nurses. These nurses are the ones that get you through the many challenging days following a new stoma. If you have to crawl to this place after your surgery, do so. No one is immune to the emotional challenges an ostomy brings, especially from cancer. My appointments were never rushed and I was able to get a lot off my chest. I had to wean myself from the nurses' help because of holiday travel, but they never pressured me to not make future appointments. If you aren't able to travel to New West, I know they'll help you over the phone and they ship their supplies province-wide.

The Nurses have seen me through the body adjustment, as well as health issues, that I could not have made it through without your medical knowledge and assistance.

You've been there for me when I needed you most, and that makes me even more grateful. Today (May 3rd. 2018) is my one year anniversary of my Urostomy, and the learning continues with the help and encouragement of the Nurses and staff at the Ostomy Care & Supply Centre in New Westminster. Thank you!

I did not have high hopes as the brands they carried are similar to every other store I have been to. When I entered the store there were more sales reps than shoppers in the store and they were very welcoming without being pushy. The young woman that assisted me was the most considerate of reps and she knew her shoes. She measured my feet, asked a bunch of question, listened to my answers and said I'll go get some for you to try on. It was an interesting experience. She actually knew that shoes don't all fit the same from one supplier to the next and she knew that it might take several trips to the back for more shoes before she satisfied my slightly odd requirements. She just kept on helping me until we found the perfect shoes. Thanks to Emma who was so patient and knowledgeable. This place is awesome and the staff are all terrific. Give them a try!!

I called Lifecare and talked to Bahman and he is so eager to help and be accomodating. He spoke to me about how they are wanting to set up an ostomy care service and asked if I'd be willing to share insight into my experiences. My ostomy supplies had to be ordered in; I went there on a Saturday and they came in on Tueday. When I wasn't able to pick up my supplies, he delivered them to my work place in Vancouver. NO ostomy care centre has EVER offered that to me before. Wow! I definitely recommend this place to ostomy patients in the Tri-Cities area (and beyond!).
